Kep Your Focus on Your Purpose

Grace and peace be multiplied to you through the knowledge of God our Father and Jesus Christ. Welcome to my blog! I hope the thoughts you find here will encourage you and inspire you to diligently seek God’s Kingdom. Today, I want to continue reflecting on our foundational verse for this year, 2025. I desire to seek God’s Kingdom first and His righteousness so that all these things will be added to me. This week, let’s look again at Matthew 13 for more insight. 

Matt. 13:27 So the servants of the householder came and said unto him, Sir, didst not thou sow good seed in thy field? from whence then hath it tares? KJV

I believe that any comment received without perspective leads to ruin. Often, people who are not owners of your purpose, who have no skin in the game, so to speak, will often have the wrong perspective about your purpose and context. Be careful whom you allow to define your progress. Be careful whom you allow to influence your perspective. The way you frame a thing depends greatly on whose purpose you are living by, and what word you establish your purpose on.

This verse shows how people who have nothing invested in your purpose will question the value of your seed based on the weeds they now see. In verse 24, which is as much scripture as verse 27 is, it is clear that the man who sowed seed in his field sowed “good seed.” But people who are servants, not co-laborers, not invested in your seed, not part owners of your field, somehow have the audacity to question the value of your seed.

Your seed is what God says it is. Your value is what God says it is. Because some “servant” does not recognize that you can have good seed, does not mean you should question your seed. They are focused on your enemies’ result and not your purpose. In verse 26, the scriptures said that blades began to sprout and brought forth fruit. So the intention of the seed is working, but servants will only focus on the intention of your enemies.

Keep your focus on your purpose. Your seed is still good. God is not deterred by the actions of your enemy, and neither should you be. Keep moving forward. Keep expecting a harvest. Keep believing what God said to you, in spite of the evidence of tares. Tares do not define you; they define what your enemy wants for you. Hang in there. Believe God for your purpose and keep moving forward.

Again, I would like to invite you to subscribe to the blog. I will be posting regularly, with an entry every Tuesday. You can subscribe at the bottom of this page.

Remember to invite someone to church with you this Sunday. I look forward to seeing you there. Seek God’s Kingdom first.

Yours Because I am His,
