1 God Promises you that His Word Never Fails

2 Matthew 13:3 He told many stories in the form of parables, such as this one: Listen! A farmer went out to plant some seeds.

3 Matthew 13:4 As he scattered them across his field, some seeds fell on a footpath, and the birds came and ate them.

4 Matthew 13:5 Other seeds fell on shallow soil with underlying rock. The seeds sprouted quickly because the soil was shallow.

5 Matthew 13:6 But the plants soon wilted under the hot sun, and since they didn t have deep roots, they died.

6 Matthew 13:7 Other seeds fell among thorns that grew up and choked out the tender plants.

7 Matthew 13:8 Still other seeds fell on fertile soil, and they produced a crop that was thirty, sixty, and even a hundred times as much as had been planted!

8 Matthew 13:9 Anyone with ears to hear should listen and understand.

9 2016 Church Theme: Responding to God s Promises

10 God Promises you that His Word Never Fails

11 God s Word Never Fails People Live by God s Word Every Word of God is true Teaching God s Word gives light God s Word is a guide for life God s Word lasts forever

12 Luke 1:37 For the word of God will never fail.

13 Matthew 4:4 But Jesus told him, No! The Scriptures say, People do not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.

14 Proverbs 30:5 Every word of God proves true. He is a shield to all who come to him for protection.

15 Psalm 119:130 The teaching of your word gives light, so even the simple can understand.

16 Psalm 119:105 Your word is a lamp to guide my feet and a light for my path.

17 Isaiah 40:8 The grass withers and the flowers fade, but the word of our God stands forever.

18 God s Word Never Fails People Live by God s Word Every Word of God is true Teaching God s Word gives light God s Word is a guide for life God s Word lasts forever

19 God plants His Word in your heart. The Word itself is exponential and contains the DNA to accomplish its purpose. Your heart condition determines the crop that is produced by God s word.

20 Luke 11:28 Jesus replied, But even more blessed are all who hear the word of God and put it into practice.

21 Jeremiah 15:16 When I discovered your words, I devoured them. They are my joy and my heart s delight, for I bear your name, O Lord God of Heaven s Armies.

22 Matthew 15:6 In this way, you say they don t need to honor their parents. And so you cancel the word of God for the sake of your own tradition.

23 Isaiah 8:20 Look to God s instructions and teachings! People who contradict his word are completely in the dark.

24 James 1:21 So get rid of all the filth and evil in your lives, and humbly accept the word God has planted in your hearts, for it has the power to save your souls.

25 God s word is exponential in its ability. One Word from God can produce more than 100 results.

26 Matthew 13:18 Now listen to the explanation of the parable about the farmer planting seeds:

27 Matthew 13:19 The seed that fell on the footpath represents those who hear the message about the Kingdom and don t understand it. Then the evil one comes and snatches away the seed that was planted in their hearts.

28 Matthew 13: The seed on the rocky soil represents those who hear the message and immediately receive it with joy. 21 But since they don t have deep roots, they don t last long. They fall away as soon as they have problems or are persecuted for believing God s word.

29 Matthew 13:22 The seed that fell among the thorns represents those who hear God s word, but all too quickly the message is crowded out by the worries of this life and the lure of wealth, so no fruit is produced.

30 Matthew 13:23 The seed that fell on good soil represents those who truly hear and understand God s word and produce a harvest of thirty, sixty, or even a hundred times as much as had been planted!

31 God is willing and able to change a person s heart condition so s/he will accept and obey His word.

32 Ezekiel 11:18 When the people return to their homeland, they will remove every trace of their vile images and detestable idols.

33 Ezekiel 11: And I will give them singleness of heart and put a new spirit within them. I will take away their stony, stubborn heart and give them a tender, responsive heart, 20 so they will obey my decrees and regulations. Then they will truly be my people, and I will be their God.

34 Ezekiel 11:21 But as for those who long for vile images and detestable idols, I will repay them fully for their sins. I, the Sovereign Lord, have spoken!

35 God s Word Never Fails!
