Introduction: The Power of Parables
Parables are heavenly words with earthly meanings. They are divine statements clothed in human understanding.
When Jesus spoke, He spoke in parables because heavenly realities must be interpreted through earthly lenses.
That is why He said, “To you it is given to understand the mysteries of the kingdom, but to them, it is not given.”
For those in the Kingdom, God communicates through parables — coded truths wrapped in simplicity, yet filled with divine depth.
He said, “A sower went forth to sow.” Everything in that passage reveals the composition of life itself. Life is sowing and reaping. Life is cause and effect. Life is the direct result of what you release into it.
The Universe Responds to What You Sow
The universe is not moral — it is magnetic. The universe does not judge what is right or wrong; it simply mirrors what you deposit into it.
Whatever you put into life is exactly what life gives back to you.
Anything you do not invest into life, life will never return to you.
The sower went forth to sow — carrying seed in his hands. Now, what is the seed?
The Identity of the Seed and the Sower
In Genesis 3:15, after man’s fall, God said to the serpent, “I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed.”
The seed here represents a biological product — a divine continuation of life.
In Genesis 22:17, God told Abraham, “In blessing I will bless you, and in multiplying I will multiply your seed as the stars of heaven; and your seed shall possess the gates of his enemies.”
So when the Bible speaks of the Sower, it represents God.
When it speaks of the Seed, it represents you.
God is the Sower — you are the Seed.
Say it with understanding: God is the Sower, I am the Seed.
Tell someone beside you: God is the Sower, you are the Seed.
The Goodness of the Sower
Every intention of God toward you is good.
The Sower went forth to sow — His motive was productivity, fruitfulness, and reward.
God has no evil thought toward you.
Jeremiah 29:11 says, “For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you an expected end.”
Psalm 139:17 declares, “How precious also are Thy thoughts unto me, O God! How great is the sum of them.”
God is a good God.
In Matthew 19:17, when a man called Jesus “Good Master,” He replied, “Why callest thou me good? There is none good but God.”
If it is not good, it is not God.
If it is not marvelous, it is not God that did it.
For “This is the Lord’s doing, and it is marvelous in our eyes.”
We have established this truth: God is the Sower, and you are the Seed.
Destiny Is a Journey
He said, “The Sower went forth.”
Destiny is a journey. Everyone who must arrive at the place of rest must approach destiny with the mindset of a traveler — one who keeps moving.
In Luke 15:13, the prodigal son “took his journey.”
In Luke 10:30, a man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho — he was on a journey.
In Acts 9:3, as Paul journeyed to Damascus, he encountered God.
Destiny is not a stationary event; it is a continuous movement toward divine fulfillment.
You are the Seed. God is the Sower. And destiny is the journey.
The Three Assignments of a Seed
There are three divine responsibilities or characteristics of every seed.
1. A Seed Must Possess
In Genesis 22:17, God said, “Thy seed shall possess the gates of his enemies.”
To possess means to claim ownership — to lay hold of what is rightfully yours.
You must develop a mentality of possession.
Sound health is your possession.
Long life is your possession.
Increase is your possession.
Greatness is your possession.
Prosperity and advancement are your possessions.
There is something with your name on it.
There is a divine allocation connected to your destiny.
Say it boldly: It is mine. It is mine. It is mine.
Health is mine.
Peace is mine.
Success is mine.
Victory is mine.
2. A Seed Must Bruise
In Genesis 3:15, God said, “It shall bruise thy head.”
That means warfare. That means confrontation.
Every seed must bruise — every seed must be ready for battle.
There is no victory without combat. A seed must be prepared to confront and conquer.
Not all problems respond to the same level of power.
In the spirit realm, there are ranks — some spirits are stronger than others.
The disciples once asked Jesus, “Why could we not cast this one out?” They had cast out demons before, but this one resisted them.
Jesus replied, “This kind goeth not out but by prayer and fasting.” (Matthew 17:21)
There are ionic problems — situations with metallic resistance. Some issues require ionic anointing to break ionic chains.
In Judges 1:19, Judah could not drive out the inhabitants of the valley because they had chariots of iron.
You may have conquered the mountain, but the valley still resists you.
You have prayed, fasted, and sown, yet some things stand firm. Why?
Because they require a higher dimension of grace.
But hear this: He has broken the gates of brass and cut the bars of iron asunder.
God is releasing upon you the anointing to bruise every serpent, to crush every resistance, and to tear down every iron wall.
3. The Seed and Its Location
Now hear this — the problem was not the Sower. His intention was good.
The problem was not the Seed. Its composition was good.
The problem was where it fell.
The outcome of any destiny is directly determined by where it fell.
Jesus said, “Some fell by the wayside.”
The wayside is not the way — it is beside the way.
It represents people who exist by chance, without intention or purpose.
Life just “happened” to them.
Some destinies fell by the wayside — no structure, no direction, no deliberate pursuit. Things just happen to them.
With all due respect, some lives came into existence without plan or purpose.
A man met a woman; there was chemistry — and as I often say, “Where there is chemistry, there will be biology.”
But when biology comes, make sure you have the economics to handle it.
Some just fell — no direction, no preparation.
But even if you fell, God can still lift you again.
Even if your seed was misplaced, His grace can relocate you to fertile ground.
Conclusion: The Reality of the Seed
The Sower is God.
You are the Seed.
Life is the field.
Where you fall determines what you become.
But when you align yourself with the divine Sower, your soil changes — your environment begins to support your growth.
You were born to possess.
You were born to bruise the head of the enemy.
You were born to bear fruit.
Your seed will not die in the ground.
Your seed will not fall by the wayside.
Your seed will not be eaten by birds.
You will rise.
You will shine.
You will possess your gates.
Say it with conviction:
God is the Sower. I am the Seed.
I will possess my inheritance.
I will bruise the head of the serpent.
I will bear fruit in every good work.
