Light-seeds are planted in the souls of God’s people, Joy-seeds are planted in good heart-soil.
Dear Ones: Light-seeds! This is a perfect way to describe the Word of God when it is planted in the soil of your heart. Light drives out the darkness that is filled with depression, fear, pain, and strife. This imagery gives you a way to understand how beneficial it is to sow the Word of God into your soul.
The news gets better because along with the light-seeds joy-seeds are planted, too. Nehemiah 8:10b clearly states, “…for the joy of the Lord is your strength.” Joy is a delight of your mind. It actually empowers you to withstand the onslaught of the negative emotions the enemy launches at you.
Light-seeds and joy-seeds sprout every time you plant the Word of God in your soul. Be assured that the Word is powerful. (See Hebrews 4:12.) It accomplishes what it was sent to do. God takes delight in blessing His people and filling them with His joy.
Rejoice today that you are filled with light-seeds and joy-seeds. Share these seeds with those who are in your sphere of influence. Let His joy bubble up and receive His strength to stand against those things that confront you, your family, and your nation. You are a light filled overcomer. I bless you in Jesus’ name.
