This parable is talking about the human heart, not the people around you, it is good to free our self from bad influence but that does not guarantee that the seed of the word will grow. You can change your friends your job all of it; that doesn't guarantee salvation all it guarantees is change in habits, not spiritual growth.
Flora Simao I agree. Pastor Joel Osteen is anointed along with his wife Co-Pastor Victoria Osteen. They are changing so many lives for the better daily:). God bless you in Jesus Christ’ name. Amen:-)🙌.
Dear brothers and sisters i greet you in our Lord Jesus Christ Three years ago, I began to engage in faith. I started here in Croatia in the catholic church to visit mass and to read The Holy Scriptures. Very early on, I noticed that what is taught and practiced in the catholic church contradicts the Holy Scriptures and what Jesus taught us. In addition, some things in the Holy Bible were unclear to me and raised additional questions and doubts, such as: - If our God is the God of love and justice, why are we punished for the sins of Adam? Doesn't that contradict the principles of love and justice? An earthly father who is full of faults and weaknesses would not do such a thing, then how can we think such a thing about our Perfect Father? - How can a loving father throw his child forever in the hell? That also contradicts these principles. And besides, in 1 Timothy 2; 3 + 4: "For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour; Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth." So, if this were really so, that in spite of His will, people will be brought forever to hell and not saved, this would mean that He can not enforce His will and thus He is not the omnipotent God, if we follow these doctrines believe. - Why does it say in some passages that Jesus is the Son of God, in others the Son of Man and in others that He and God are one? Although I kept going to the Catholic Mass, at home I no longer practiced the prayers of the catholic church, but started talking like a child to my Father (Matthew 6: 7 + 8 ). After a short while, I got the answer to everything. He guided me through a friend of my mother to the revelations of Bertha Dudde. Now I know that the Bible does not contradict itself. God can not contradict himself. The truth is not in the word, in the letter, but in the understanding, in the interpretation of it. Now I know that Jesus is God and our Father in heaven, and I understand all the processes and contexts, and through this I have come to know that He is the perfect Love and not the strict, punitive God. As he promised us in John 14; 21: "He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him. " 16; 12 + 13: "I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now. Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come. " 16; 25: "These things have I spoken unto you in proverbs: but the time cometh, when I shall no more speak unto you in proverbs, but I shall shew you plainly of the Father. " In the revelations of Bertha Dudde, His promise was fulfilled, just as every other of His promises was and will be fulfilled, for He never quits (Titus 1: 2) because His word is truth (John 17; 17) and all that will happen is what He said has (Hebrews 10; 23, Ezekiel 12; 25:28, etc.) My loved brothers and sisters, I ask you not to blindly believe me, but as written in 1 Thessalonians chapter 5 verses 19-21: " Quench not the Spirit. Despise not prophesyings. Prove all things; hold fast that which is good. " Before you begin to look, go into prayer and ask our Father Jesus Christ for enlightenment to put you in your heart, whether that's really His word or not. Do not read with your mind or knowledge, but with your heart, for knowledge (knowledge, understanding) puffeth up, love (heart) edifieth (1 Corinthians 8: 1), for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life (2 Corinthians 3: 6). ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-RFK2kg6Qs0M.html My dear brothers and sisters, the situation in Christianity is alarming, frightening and very sad and for that very reason the end is near, the time is up. Only in a very small part are the fruits of the Spirit (Galatians 5; 22) recognizable, and thus only a very few truly belong to Christ, for only those who enjoy the fruits and grow in them are of his (Romans 8: 9). "My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge…" Hosea 4; 6 I wish you a blessed day my beloved brothers and sisters, May the Love of our Lord Jesus Christ shine through your heart and lead you into the truth.
Awesome sermon Joel! We can only flourish and be all we came into this life to be if we surround ourselves with good soil. Our minds are also fertile ground. Thank you for bringing us the word of God. God bless you and your precious family and ALL reading this, in Jesus Name, Amen!

AMEN ❤️❤️❤️ Amazing teaching as usual. Yes, Joel, "The environment we put ourselves in is really so important. And truly, no matter how good a seed is, it's dependent of having good soil."
Victoria, another fantastic sermon....... now listing to Joel ...the parable of the sower has always ment somthing to me since my childhood. when I had to read this this patable and communicate this to the restvof my class mates... I want to blossom in Gods world...... Help me to grow in good soil..... May Almighty God bless and protect me, my husband and my siblings ..... May God bless me abundandly and let me have his favour..... Lord Jesus please take me away frrom bitter contaminated soil. I am healed whole. My family are healed. Amen and amen.
Having gifts & talents are a blessing. Its a greater blessing when the right "soil" fosters growth and utilization of those gifts and talents the way God intended.
God knows what he is doing and he will make a way for me relocate if this is not where I am suppose to be. I don’t have money to move to a better neighborhood, I don’t have acess to my funds. I really wished that my robot could learn to deposit a little money every month in my bank account. It could happen that’s what happened on angels in the outfield. God will bless me right where I am I have faith
Hi Joel!! Yes, I am in good soil!! I volunteer in a great community, with supervisors, who lift me up, like Peter. I am going to church, every Saturday. In the morning, before I read my electronics, I read the Bible. Victorias, Exceptional You, drove me to reach for the Bible first thing in the morning. Thank you Osteen family!! You all have clear, helpful messages, for a better life, serving others and receiving God's peace. Happy Memorial Day.
I am always following your sermons Joel Osteen. Am a Christian and a Ghanaian living in Accra the capital town. I always feel a part of Ur Ministry. Please, I would like to pay visit to the Church. How best can U help me to do that? And please Joel, would U mind paying visit to my country someday soon and visit my Church with Ur beautiful wife, Charismatic Evangelistic Ministry to share one of Ur sermons with us? Ghanaians will much love to receiving U. Thank U.
Amen this was a powerful word today I truly believe I had a bad seed in my life I was sleeping with The Devil didn’t even know it I was helping somebody by trying to make them feel like somebody take the depression that anger bitterness but everything done in the dark comes to light some people don’t want to do better they just like what you can do for them and when you came to know more they just ran trying to help them because Im a blessed and highly favored person with great people around me but being with them this last year in the I half brought me to depression a dark Place and now I need to get back to me pray for me people in Jesus name amen

Affirmation of exactly what I am going through. I was surrounded by poisonous people I let them because I didn't want to hurt their feelings. I will keep protecting my seed.
This massage doesn't take into account that when you keep your needs and wants few and simple, life is easier, simpler, possibly stress free, slower, better. This massage also doesn't take into account that who you are determines who you attract.
Thank you Father God for Pastor Joel Osteens ministry. Help me be all I can be for Gods plan and godly assignment for my life and destiny. Teach me Holy Spirit how to unplug from the things which can be a negative energy. Cleanse my heart mind and soul from the bitterness which has been effecting my joy, my faith and my victory. Thank you Pastor Joel for this God given words of wisdom to help me begin growing as a daughter of the most high God. In Jesus name I ask and pray. :-)
