Parable Thirty Three
A young farmer was getting his fields ready for planting. He had just spent weeks tilling and preparing the soil. As the planting time approached he went to his storage area to get th seed for planting when he noticed that the door to the shed has been broken. He quickly ran inside and found that all his seed for planting had been stolen. It was devastating. That was all the seed he had and he had no money to go and buy more. The prospect of starvation was now looming on the horizon. That night he return to his home and told his young wife what had happened. That night both knew the future looked bleak, but being people who believed in the power of prayer they knelt down and prayed. They knew only divine help could save them.
The following morning a knock was heard on the door. A man was standing there. He said, "May I come in." The young farmer and little taken back said, "yes." He explained that he was sleeping and during the night a strong urge came upon him to pray. He began to seek God's face and this young farmer face and name came to him. The Lord instructed him to bring a wagon of seed to their home and give it to them.
The young farmer then explained what had happened and how they had prayed the night before. The man gave the young farmer the seed and even helped him plant it. When difficult circumstances happen and all doors seem shut. Open the window of prayer and see the heavens open and rain His love into you situation.
