2-6-11: Learning to Follow Jesus Attribute 2.5: Learn to be productive

PIF Kids Sermon - 2/6/11
Learning to Follow Jesus
Attribute 2: Learn to listen
Step 5: Learn to be productive

Scripture Memory:“Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock.” – Matthew 7:24-25
Bible Scripture: Luke 8:5-15

Seed = Word of God
1) Seed fell along the path, trampled on, the birds of the air ate it up - The ones who hear and then the devil comes and takes away the word from their hearts, so that they may not believe and be saved
2) Some fell on rock, when it came up, the plants withered because they had no moisture - Receive the word with joy when they hear it but they have no root. They believe for a while but in the time of testing they fall away
3) Seed fell among thorns, which grew up with it and choked the plants - As they go on their way they are choked by life’s worries, riches, and pleasures (entertainment), and they do not mature
4) Other seed fell on good soil. It came up and yielded a crop, a hundred times more than was sown

Challenge for this week:
Put the word of God into practice.
