God is able to do far above all we could ask or think according to His Power that is at work in us.

Our thinking may be limited in our minds, but His Power is never limited. Our unbelief may limit our minds from believing Him, but His power is never limited.

Our mis-beliefs may limit our minds from believing Him, but His Power is still never limited.

Our lack of Faith may limit our minds from believing Him, but still, His power is never limited. Our tendencies toward sin may be limiting our ability to believe Him, but His Power is still unlimited.

But The Word of The LORD states, “You are of God little children and that evil one touches you not, for greater is He that is in you, than he that is in the world.”

He has placed a hedge of protection around you despite your limited thinking. Despite your unbelief. Despite your misbeliefs, despite your lack of faith, despite your tendencies to sin.

Why has He done all of this?

Because He planted a seed that is incorruptible in you!

He planted that seed in you, and He still wants the harvest from what He planted in you.

In our garden, we plant seeds in the soil, we till the ground, we add natural nutrients, we water the soil, we pull out weeds, we chase out mice and pests using natural pesticides (like Neem Oil). We do all these things to protect our harvest — because we need our food.

However, God’s ways are higher than our ways, and His thoughts are higher than our thoughts. Therefore, He sends forth His Word to those in which He planted His Seed, and it does not return to Him void; it accomplishes the purpose for which He sent it.

We work our soil, we plant our seed so that our work does not come back to us void, or unfulfilled. We have to make the effort so that we can accomplish the purpose for which we planted it.

“For as long as the earth remains, there will be seed time, and then harvest.”

“We are God’s workmanship; we are God’s building.”

And,

“For as surely as we live on the earth, we will show forth the Glory of The LORD.”
