YEAST AND THE KINGDOM OF GOD

Matthew 13:33 (TPT, CEV)

Then he taught them another parable: “Heaven’s kingdom realm can be compared to yeast that a woman takes and blends into three measures of flour and then waits until all the dough rises.” *Jesus also said: The kingdom of heaven is like what happens when a woman mixes a little yeast into three big batches of flour. Finally, all the dough rises.

Jesus used yeast to explain the power and influence that the kingdom of God can have in our lives. When a small amount of yeast is mixed into the baking flour for bread, that little yeast penetrates into every part of the flour and after a while, it causes the flour to rise and increase in size till it becomes the type of bread the baker desires it to be. It is often very amazing to see the increase and transformation that takes place after yeast is applied to baking flour.

Many times, the will and the ways of God may look very little and insignificant in the eyes of men, but when we apply the will and the ways of God into our lives or whatever we are doing, it has the same effect that yeast has on baking flour. The life, power, blessings and glory of God penetrate into our lives and spread into all areas of our lives. With time, this life, power, blessings and glory of God begin to transform and affect our lives in amazing ways. They begin to bring about various kinds of lifting and increase in our lives.

Just like yeast, most times, this increase and transformation will not be immediate, but will surely happen and when it does, the effect will be marvellous. Do not despise the kingdom (the will and the ways of God). Continue to embrace it and apply it into your life.

Prayer:
Heavenly Father, please help me to remain consistent in applying your will and ways into every area of my life.
