“UNDERSTAND THE WORD”
READ: Matthew 13:18-23
“And I will give you pastors according to mine heart, which SHALL FEED YOU WITH KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING.” – Jeremiah 3:15
It is important to deepen the understanding of the ordinary Christian. When people do not understand things, they are easily offended. When understanding is deep, they are rooted and grounded and not easy to uproot. Do you want your members to be easily uprooted? Do you want your members to be scattered? Certainly not! Organise classes to deepen the understanding of the people. Start a Bible school. Teach the Word at every opportunity.
Do not take it for granted that the members know anything. Many Christians do not know the basics of salvation. Many Christians do not know the basic doctrines of Christianity. You must fight for a deeper understanding otherwise your church members will be blown away with the very next wind. Jesus was very clear on this truth. When there is no root, there is no understanding! The lack of understanding causes Christians to be uprooted easily. The sheep should be prevented from being snatched away by the wicked one (Matthew 13:19). As the Christian understands the Word, he bears fruit (Matthew 13:23). As he lacks understanding, he becomes barren. More understanding, more fruits!
Shepherds should feed the sheep with the aim of deepening their knowledge and understanding. Feeding the sheep properly to deepen their knowledge and understanding will cause the flock to multiply and increase.
AND IT SHALL COME TO PASS, WHEN YE BE MULTIPLIED AND INCREASED in the land, in those days, saith the Lord… Jeremiah 3:16
This is the amazing responsibility that God gives the shepherds to bring understanding to the sheep
