 Do You get it?
<p>
When we have a thought or a nugget of an Idea there is a Seed of Understanding .
<p>
But until the Seed germinates it is Only a Seed .
<p>
A natural Seed requires Good soil to germinate and eventually reach its potential .
<p>
A Spiritual Seed must germinate to eventually produce what God intended.
<p>
What are Spiritual Seeds ?
<p>
The Words of God .
<p>
How does the Word of God germinate ?
<p>
By Meditation .

 Psalm 1:2 <br><i> 
But his delight is in the Law of the Lord ; and in his Law doth he Meditate day and night.</i>
<p>
 Psalm 63:6 <br><i> 
When I remember thee upon my bed, and Meditate on thee in the night watches.</i>
<p>
 Psalm 119:148 <br><i>
Mine Eyes prevent the night watches, that I Might Meditate in thy Word . </i>
</dir>
If You plant a natural Seed and dig it up in a few days it Will remain a Seed .
<p>
If You do Not Meditate on the Word of God it Will Never germinate. It Will remain a Seed .
<p>
Profound Truth is transcendental. It spans Time and space. It is transformational .
<p>
The discovery of the Relationship between matter and energy ushered in the atomic age.
<p>
That was a profound concept with tremendous implications for Humanity .
<p>
God`s Word is profound. It has tremendous implications for Humanity .

 John 6:63 <br><i>
It is the Spirit that quickeneth; the Flesh profiteth nothing: the Words that I Speak unto You , they are Spirit , and they are Life .</i>
<p>
 Matthew 4:4 <br><i>
But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall Not Live by bread alone, but by every Word that proceedeth out of the Mouth of God .</i>

 Understanding happens quickly for some but less quickly for most.
<p>
Study comes easy for some but is torturous for others.
<p>
 The things of the Spirit are Not natural. They are Not encountered through natural Life experiences.
<p>
The Word of God reveals Supernatural Truth .
<p>
The Word of God is profound. It is Not fathomed by casual encounter.
<p>
The Word of God is Not ~light~ reading.
<p>
The Word of God requires that we have New Eyes - Eyes that can See into the Spirit Realm .
<p>
 Spiritual Eyes along with Wisdom and Knowledge in Spiritual Truth are Gifts that must be asked for and Received by Faith .
<p>
Why is it so important to have Spiritual Eyes and Understanding into Spiritual matters?
<dir>
 Ephesians 1:18-20 <br><i>
18 The Eyes of your Understanding being Enlightened ; that ye may Know what is the Hope of his Calling , and what the Riches of the Glory of his Inheritance in the Saints ,
<p>
19 And what is the exceeding greatness of his Power to us-ward who Believe , according to the working of his Mighty Power ,
<p>
20 Which he wrought in Christ , when he raised him from the Dead , and set him at his own Right hand in the Heavenly places,</i>
</dir>
<p>
As New Spirit beings we have infinite potential because the Seed that God Sowed in us is Himself.
<p>
In Order for God to Manifest in and through us we must germinate the Seed by Meditation on who we are in Christ as revealed by God`s Word .
<p>
 Understanding Will Increase as we Meditate but we Will Never fully fathom the Gift of God !

“that I should Preach among the Gentiles the unsearchable Riches of Christ . . . . to Know the Love of Christ , which passes Knowledge , that You Might be filled with All the Fullness of God.â€ ( Eph. 3:8,19 )
<p>
As I Read this passage over and over, I must Confess that I don’t Know if I Will ever get my Mind wrapped around it. Consider these phrases:
<p>
‘the unsearchable Riches of Christ’ – No matter how much we Know , there is more to Know . There is no end to knowing the Riches of Christ . It is infinite .
<p>
‘to Know the Love of Christ which passes knowledge’ – How can You Know something that passes Knowledge ? Not Only are His Riches unsearchable, His Love is unknowable !
<p>
‘that You Might be filled with All the Fullness of God’ – If the first two phrases weren’t enough, Paul goes on to Pray that we would be filled with <b> All Of God </b> ! I don’t Know if this is hitting You like it hit Me , but Christ in Us , the Hope of Glory is far beyond a Doctrine . 
<p>
God Lives in Us , Christ Lives in us and the Spirit Lives in us ( these three are One ) and their Riches are unsearchable, their Love past knowing and their Fullness in us is incomprehensible to our natural Minds .
<p>
And that is the Gospel message. God wants to Live in You and bless you.
<p>
Oh, the depth of the Riches both of the Wisdom and Knowledge of God ! How unsearchable are His Judgments and His Ways past finding out! ( Rom. 11:33 )
