Matthew 13

Whoever has, to him will be given

Matthew 13:12
Because whoever has, to him will be given, and he will have more; but from him who has not, even what he has will be taken away.


whoever has to him will be given and you

will have more now some make this about

money but it isn’t if we look at the

verse that precedes that it precedes

that Matthew 13 verse 11 then it makes

it very clear what the Lord is speaking

about and he said to them in answer to

you is given the knowledge of the

secrets of the kingdom of heaven but to

them it is not given to whom the

disciples said to him why do you say

things to them in the form of story

why parable why all the stories in the

scripture to make a division to you is

given the knowledge of the secrets of

the kingdom of heaven but to them it is

not given a simple test do you know the

meaning of the parables or do you well

they’re just things that are to be taken

literally in the world you why because

whoever has to him will be given

whoever has what knowledge of the

kingdom of God

knowledge of God

whoever has to him will be given and he

will have more but from him who has not

even what he has will be taken away not

about money not about land about any of

those things but it’s about the

knowledge of the kingdom of God Matthew

13 the mysteries of the kingdom of God

at the end both do those who profess is

the right word both those who follow the

Lord and those who do not sinners and

saints will come to an end and the work

of those who believe and have faith in

Him is to plant the Word of God in the

world in faith in faith not expecting to

change everyone or anyone but it’s in

expectance of his coming for he will

come and he will make a division between

the good and a bad the Saints and the

sinners making an end of sinners setting

up his kingdom

the parables one of the parables that I

that are interesting but there are also

well dangerous is the one of the mustard

seed in Matthew 13 muster see this

brought forward and some say that the

mustard seed and 11 teach that the

conversion of the whole world will

happen in this age by the preaching of

the gospel this cannot be true why not

because in the end he will come in

clouds of glory judging every man for

his works if all are converted by

preaching of the gospel well there’s no

one to judge and he will first raise up

those who died in Christ and afterwards

he will take up with those he rose up

those who are still alive in Christ if

all are converted by the preaching of

the gospel then it should just read he

will take up all

the wheat and the tares contradicted for

if all are converted by the preaching of

the gospel

there will be no wheat there will be

wheat all of it would be wheat there

will be no tears

so the leaven and a mustard seed and

it’s true interpretation is different

leaven is mostly bad a means corruption

Lebanon the Pharisees mostly used as a

symbol of my own not so good things are

being done the mustard seed pictures

chosen a strange thing the smallest of

seeds bringing forth the greatest of

trees

unsubstantial growth of the outward

Church the church that is a church to

Christ in appearance outwardly it’s

always a mustard seed

it’s always a giant Church a mustard

seed turn into a mustard tree but if we

turn to Daniel chapter 4 verse 20 the

tree which you saw which became tall and

strong stretching up to heaven and seen

from the ends of the earth which had

fair leaves and much fruit and had in it

food for all under which the beasts of

the field were living and in the

branches of which the birds of heaven

had their resting places it is you O

king who have become great and strong

for your power is increased and

stretching up to heaven and your rule to

the end of the year

sounds great verse 23 and as for the

vision which the Kingsolver watcher a

holy one coming down from heaven saying

let the tree be cut down and given to

destruction remember when the Lord

Himself came when the Lord Himself came

he had twelve apostles he had 120 people

praying in a room after after he was

crucified 120 70 disciples certainly not

a great tree

so when you see signs of outward

greatness be careful for signs of

outward greatness churches with

gazillions of members big buildings all

of that remember that one same you are

great o king you are great o king

your rule is great but as for that

vision where you saw a watcher a holy

one coming down from heaven saying let

the tree be cut down and given to

destruction

remember that God is one Christ this one

one spirit working in different ways

through all God has no need of great

numbers of big trees of huge buildings

for even in that New Jerusalem

revelations there is no temple but God

and the lamb are the temple and there is

nothing no great chandelier of light or

no great Sun that gives light for God

lights it and a light thereof is the

lamb and the lamb is in us and we in him

as he is in God and God in we the people

who are taken up light up

light up for we are in the light

amen amen

blessed be our Lord who says that

whoever has whoever seeks whoever asks

will receive whoever seeks will find

whoever knocks on the door will be left

seeking asking searching whoever does

that for the kingdom of God whoever is

searching for the kingdom of God whoever

has to him will be given and he will

have even more so keep searching I pray

I pray that at all times you may keep

searching for the kingdom of God for the

Lord God himself for the knowledge of

who he is in you what he has done for

you and what his plan for you is and

that you may preach and speak the Word

of God not expecting to impress anyone

for there’s that popular people will

drop you in a minute God will hold you

up forever but people will drop you in a

minute but that you may preach and speak

the Word of God in expectation of his

coming as your personal offering of your

tent to the Lord God Almighty amen let

us do our reading Lord give us your word

speak with your voice speak unto the

hearts of those

under the power of your voice in Jesus

mighty name amen

Matthew 13 Matthew 13 verse 1 on that

day Jesus went out of the house and was

seated by the seaside and great numbers

of people came together to him so that

he got into a boat and the people took

up their position by the sea and he gave

them teaching in the form of a story

saying a man went out to put seed in the

earth and while he did so some seeds

were dropped by the wayside and a birds

came and took them for food and some of

the seed went among the stones where it

had not much earth and straightaway it

came up because the earth was not deep

straightaway and when the Sun was high

it was burned and because it had no root

it became dry and dead and some seeds

went among thorns and the torrents came

up and they had no room for growth and

some falling on good earth gave fruit

some 100 some sixty some thirty times as

much he who has ears let him give ear

and the disciples came and said to him

why do you say things to them in the

form of stories and he said to them in

answer to you is given the knowledge of

the secrets of the kingdom of heaven but

to them it is not given because whoever

has to him will be given and he will

have more but from him who has not even

what he has will be taken will be taken

away

for this reason I put things into the

form of stories because they see without

seeing and give ear without hearing and

a sense is not clear to them and none

none who see without seeing and give ear

without hearing not who look without

seeing without being able to see or hear

or listen without being able to hear

what is sad none of them come and say

hey I didn’t understand that why do you

say this Center none of them the sense

is not clear to them and so they just go

on the literal meaning of the words but

scripture is about spirit and the

earthly things described in it are just

a reflection of something that’s going

on spiritually it’s just trying to put

into something understandable to man

what is going on in heaven they see

without seeing and give ear without hear

I pray that when you see and look for

God you may see him that it pleases him

that you see and it pleases him that you

give ear and he lets you see his kingdom

and he lets you hear his word in your

soul through spirit for God is spirit

blessed be your own

verse 14 and for them the words of

Isaiah have come true though you give

ear you will not get knowledge see

though you give ear you will not get

knowledge and seeing you will see but

the sense will not be clear to you you

won’t know what yours for the heart of

this people has become fat and their

ears are slow in hearing and their eyes

are shut for fear that they might see

with their eyes and give hearing with

their ears and become wise in their

hearts and be turned again to me so that

I might make them well and here we were

thinking well Jesus wants us all to come

this is the book of Mathew the New

Testament this is the book of Matthew

there is no Old Testament stuff that

doesn’t apply to us for all of the Bible

all then you apply the old was done away

because men corrupted it in their

interpretation and usage of it

but a blessing but a blessing beyond

your eyes because they see and on your

ears because they are open amen

for truly I say to you that prophets and

upright man had a desire to see the

things which you see and saw them not

and to have knowledge of the words which

have come to your ears and they had it

not give ear then to the story of the

man who put seed in the earth who put

the seed when the word of the kingdom

comes to anyone and the sense of it is

not clear to him then the evil one comes

and quickly takes away that which was

put in his heart so get is clear as soon

as the sense of it is not clear to you

don’t think oh I got to do things my own

have this that is pride pride is the

downfall of man and what happens is that

the evil one comes you give him an

advantage and quickly he takes away that

which was put in that man’s heart

and that man is the seed becomes then

the seed dropped by the wayside and that

which went on the stones this is he who

hearing the word straightaway takes it

with joy but having no root in himself

having no root in himself he goes on for

a time and when trouble comes or pain

because of the word he quickly becomes

full of doubts hmm and that which was

dropped among the thorns this is he who

has the word and the cares of this life

and he worries about the things of this

life and the deceits of wealth acquiring

and maintaining it the cares of this

life and the deceit of wealth put a stop

to the growth of the word and it gives

no fruit in many churches they preach

about money what you have to do to get

it how much money they need who will

give money here and there money money

money

the Word of God says you cannot worship

maman and God at the same time you

cannot have two kings the one who has

the cares of this life of this world and

a deceit of wealth thinking that it will

make you better off those thoughts those

thoughts where do they be in an

organization or a person they put a stop

to the growth of the word and it gives

no fruit

and the seed which was put in good earth

this is he who gives ear to the word and

gets the sense of it

who gives fruit some a hundred some

sixty some thirty times as much and he

gave them another story saying the

kingdom of heaven is like a man who put

good seed in his field but while men

were sleeping one who had hate for him

came and put evil seed evil seeds among

the grain and went away but when the

green stem came up and gave fruit the

evil plants were seen at the same time

and the servants of the master of the

house came and said to him sir did you

not put good seed in your field how then

has it evil plans and he said someone

has done this in hate for the purpose of

the enemy it’s not to hinder you but to

destroy you for he hates you why for the

Lord God of hosts said I will create man

and man shall man shall have rule over

the angels now everybody thinks a lot of

strange things about it but what God was

saying is I will come down in the form

of a man and as a man I will have rule

over the angels for he has rule over

everything already and also have

knowledge of him and who are called an

answer to his call and whom he anoints

the enemy hates them because they have

ruled over

someone has done this in heat and the

servants say to him is it your pleasure

that we go and take them up but he says

no for fear that by chance while you

think of their evil plans you may be

rooting up the green quit them let them

come up together till the getting in of

the green and then I will say to the

workers take up first the evil plans and

put them together for burning but put

the green into my storehouse another

form of telling people about the second

coming where every man will be judged

and those who died in Christ the good

seed or those who are still alive in

Christ the good seed will be taken up to

that new city his storehouse of

blessings he put another story before

them Matthew 13 verse 31 saying the

kingdom of heaven is like a grain of

mustard seed which a man took and put in

his field which is smaller than all

seeds but when it has come up it is

greater than the plants and becomes a

tree so that the birds of heaven come

and make their resting places in its

branches another story he gave to them

the kingdom of heaven is like leaven

which a woman took and put in three

measures of meal till it was all

leavened

he’s not explaining what these things

are he is just trying to explain how the

kingdom of

is it started small it starts small with

men but it grows and grows and grows and

that man becomes a great tree we’re the

Angels come and visit it is like leaven

because once you put leaven into

something it changes the nature of that

something that is what the kingdom of

heaven doesn’t man it changes but he’s

not speaking about trees or mustard

cream or about leaven he’s trying to

explain the kingdom of heaven a mustard

seed has nothing to do with the kingdom

of heaven Levin has nothing to do with

the kingdom of heaven it’s just the

thing in and by itself but to make clear

to those who are hearing he’s explaining

something heavenly in a way by means of

something that they know so that they

might have an idea Matthew 13 verse 34

all these things Jesus said to the

people in the form of stories and

without the story he said nothing to

them then it might come true which was

said by the prophet opening my mouth I

will give out stories I will give

knowledge of things kept secret from

before all time then he went away from

the people and went into the house and

his disciples came to him saying make

clear to us the story of the evil plants

in the field and he made answer

said he who puts this good seed in the

earth is the son of man I am he who puts

the good seed in the earth remember John

one all things were created for him and

by him and a field is the world and a

good seed is the sons of the kingdom

those elected and selected and evil

seeds are the sons of the Evil One and

you put them in the earth is Satan and a

getting in of the grain is the end of

the world and those who get it in are

the Angels the harvesters some people

say oh I’m a I’m a Reaper I’m a Reaper

well read your gospel a new please and

he who put them in the earth is Satan

he who puts the sons of the Evil One on

earth is Satan it is his spirit that is

in that man but that man has to reject

Christ and accept Satan but the getting

in the harvesting is going to be done by

the angel and then the evil plants are

got together and burned with fire so

will it be in the end of the world the

Son of Man will send out his angels and

they will take out of his kingdom

everything which is a cause of error

and all those who do wrong and we’ll put

them into the fire there will be weeping

and cries of sorrow then will the

upright be shining as the Sun in the

kingdom of their father then will the

upright be shining as the Sun in the

kingdom of their father he who has ears

let him give ear I am weary I turned

suspicious of people who say of or of

whom is said that they shine as the Sun

for the word of God says that when all

that reaping is done when the tears have

been put on the fire and burnt then will

the upright be shining as the Sun in the

kingdom of their farm the dead go to

rest and also died in Christ they are

just resting but they will be taken up

with him after he has come then will the

upright be shining as the Sun let him

who has ears let him give ear the

kingdom of heaven Jesus is explaining

the kingdom of heaven all angles and

aspects of it by giving stories the

kingdom of heaven is like a secret store

of wealth in a field like a pot of gold

hid in a field

now don’t go digging up four pots of

gold because then you’re just searching

for mama

it is like

a secret store of wealth in a field

which a man came across and put back

again and in his joy he goes and gives

all he has to get that feel once you

have seen the kingdom of heaven

you give up your all just to constantly

be in that kingdom of heaven doesn’t

matter what the world does or things

again the kingdom of heaven is like a

trader searching for beautiful jewels

and having come across one jewel of

great price he went and gave all he had

in exchange for it as is like doesn’t

mean it is so just for you to be able to

conceptualize it it’s like again the

kingdom of heaven is like a net which

was put into the sea and took him every

sort of fish when it was full they took

it up on the sands and seated there they

put the good into vessels but the bad

they put away now everyone please answer

for yourself he’s saying the kingdom of

heaven is the second coming

again the kingdom of heaven is like a

net which was put into the sea and took

him every sort of fish when it was full

they took it up on the sands and seated

there they put the good into vessels but

the bad they put away there is a harvest

either of plants or a fish it doesn’t

matter

these things are not the thing itself

but they are used to explain to you how

the kingdom of heaven works the kingdom

of heaven has control over everything so

it harvests everything and then makes a

division by the Word of God for the Word

of God is a light is light notice is but

is like two edged sword making a

division between bone and muscle between

good cutting away the bad putting it

away throwing it into the fire different

forms of saying the same thing there

will be a selection a selection will be

made make certain you’re on the well on

the right side of that selection Matthew

13 verse 49 so will it be in the end of

the world so will it be in the end of

the world the angels will come and take

out the bad from the good and will put

them into the fire there will be weeping

and cries of sorrow are all these things

no clear to you they say to him yes and

he said to them for this reason every

scribe every scribe who has become a

disciple of the kingdom of heaven

is like the owner of a house who gives

out from his store things new and old

and when Jesus had come to the end of

these stories he went away from there

and coming into his country coming into

his country he gave them teaching in

their synagogue so that they were

greatly surprised and said where did

this man get this wisdom and these works

of power it’s not this the woodworkers

son they always try to be me and make

common the sons of the Lord it’s not

this the woodworkers son it’s not his

mother named Mary and his brothers James

and Joseph and Simon and Judas and his

sisters are they not all with us are

they not all on our side from where dan

has he all these things we know we know

his family we know where he came from

none of them could have given him this

even his sisters are with us from where

has he all these things and they were

bitter against him envy and jealousy the

trademarks of the evil one

and of his King and they were bitter

against him but jesus said to them a

prophet is nowhere without honor but in

his country and among his family

and the works of power which he did

there were small in number because they

had no fate for the Lord to do something

for you you must have faith for a man of

God to do something for you you must

have faith if you have no faith you

might as well not worry with you for if

even the Lord could not do many works of

power where there was not faith

what can his humble servants do it’s up

to you

have faith have faith blessed be your

Lord and I pray that you have some

knowledge of the kingdom of God now so

that you may have so that you may be

given more so that you may have more of

the kingdom of God in you in Jesus

mighty name amen

blessed be our Lord let the Holy Spirit

increase amen
