My dad is an amazing gardener. He grows tomatoes the size of Rhode Island. He knows how to fertilize them and water them so they become huge. People say he has a green thumb – that he can make anything grow. But I’ve never agreed that people have green thumbs. Why? Because God provides the growth.
The same thing is true spiritually. Paul made the point that he and Apollos planted and watered spiritually, but God caused the growth. 1 Corinthians 3:7 So then neither the one who plants nor the one who waters is anything, but God who causes the growth.
Prayer Prompts and Discussion Starters:
- Pray that God will cause seeds of faith to sprout and grow.
- Ask Him to do this in your city.
- Ask Him to open peoples’ eyes to His truth.
- Plead with Him to bring about growth as a result of the planting and watering that He’s prompted you to do.
- Give God praise and glory when you see growth – don’t take credit for yourself. Give Him all the glory and praise.
- Thank Him for originally sprouting and growing faith in you!
