Metamorphosi

Good morning family and God bless.

            This week I would like to talk about the process of a believer. I would like to take you through a series of four steps that resemble that of a butterfly. Those steps being 1^st egg, 2^nd Caterpillar, 3^rd Pupa and finally the 4^th stage an adult butterfly.

   

Let’s start with step 1, the egg.  

Eggs are laid on plants by the adult female butterfly. These plants will then become the food for the hatching caterpillars.Eggs can be laid from spring, summer or fall. This depends on the species of butterfly. Females lay a lot of eggs at once so that at least some of them survive.Butterfly eggs can be very small.

            Now instead of eggs look at this process for us like seeds, and how they are sown. Seeds are to be sown everywhere. We are to proclaim the gospel in all seasons in any instants.  Mark 16:15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. 2 Timothy 4:2 Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all long suffering and doctrine.

Understand that proclaiming the gospel (spreading the Word) is like sowing seeds in the hearts of those who may not otherwise receive the truth. Those that will receive the truth will then begin to be filled with Manna, bread of Heaven which is also the Word of God. Notice that like the butterfly process, the place where the egg is 1^st laid is also where it begins to be filled. (Parents, it starts at home)

Like the egg we start off in the eyes of others that may not understand our process as something small or insignificant. But like satan if they only knew what was about to happen. They wouldn't feel that way. 

Grab and go: Females lay a lot of eggs at once so that at least some of them survive. Not everyone that hears the Word will receive the Word. Matthew 7:21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. But it’s still our purpose even if they don’t want to hear it, to preach and do so often, so that some at least some of them will survive. 2 Timothy 4:5 But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry.
