Toward the Hundredfold – Joseph Prince

Toward the Hundredfold – Joseph Prince

Jesus also said, “The Kingdom of God is like a farmer who scatters seed on the ground.  Night and day, while he’s asleep or awake, the seed sprouts and grows, but He does not understand how it happens.  The earth produces the crops on its own.  First a leaf blade pushes through, then the heads of wheat are formed, and finally the grain ripens.”  Mark 4:26-28  NLT  First the blade, then the head, and then the full grain in the head of wheat.  Just as a seed takes time to sprout and grow, it may take some time before your healing manifests fully.  And just as a new farmer may see a thirty or sixtyfold yield before he sees a hundredfold yield, it may take some time before you experience 100 percent wholeness. My friend, don’t say, “Why is my healing taking so long?”  and give up.  Press on toward the hundredfold.  As you get 30  percent better, trust God for the 60 percent, and then the 100 percent. Don’t lose sleep over when or how the full manifestation of your healing will happen.  Be like the farmer–go to sleep!  Rest!  And leave the how and when to God.  Beloved, the Lord will give you strength to persevere.  Your hundredfold is on the way!
