MARK 4: 3-83 “Listen! A farmer went out to plant some seed. 4 As he scattered it across his field, some of the seed fell on a 

footpath, and the birds came and ate it. 5 Other seed fell on shallow soil with underlying rock. The seed 

sprouted quickly because the soil was shallow.

6 But the plant soon wilted under the hot sun, and since it didn’t have deep roots, it  

died. 7 Other seed fell among thorns that grew up and choked out the tender plants so they produced no grain. 8 Still other seeds fell on fertile soil, and they sprouted, grew, and produced a crop that was thirty, sixty, and even a hundred times as much as had been 

planted!”

MARK 4: 6-8

14 The farmer plants seed by taking God’s word to others. 15 The seed that fell on the footpath represents those who hear the message, only to have Satan come at once and take it away. 16 The seed on the rocky soil represents those who hear the message and immediately receive it with 

joy.

MARK 4: 14-20

Page 5: How to Beautify and Maintain Your Garden in the Power of the Holy Spirit

17 But since they don’t have deep roots, they don’t last long. They fall away as soon as they have problems or are persecuted for believing God’s word. 18 The seed that fell among the thorns represents others who hear God’s word, 19 but all too quickly the message is crowded out by the worries of 

this life, the lure of wealth, and the desire for other things, so no fruit is produced.

MARK 14: 17-19

Page 6: How to Beautify and Maintain Your Garden in the Power of the Holy Spirit

20 And the seed that fell on good soil represents those who hear and accept God’s word and 

produce a harvest of thirty, sixty, or even a hundred times as much 

as had been planted!”

MARK 14: 20

Page 7: How to Beautify and Maintain Your Garden in the Power of the Holy Spirit

26 Jesus also said, “The Kingdom of God is like a farmer who scatters seed on the ground. 27 Night and day, while he’s asleep or awake, the seed sprouts and grows, but he does not understand how it 

happens. 

MARK 4: 26-29

Page 8: How to Beautify and Maintain Your Garden in the Power of the Holy Spirit

28 The earth produces the crops on its own. First a leaf blade pushes 

through, then the heads of wheat are formed, and finally the grain 

ripens. 29 And as soon as the grain is ready, the farmer comes and 

harvests it with a sickle, for the harvest time has come.”

MARK 4: 28-29

Page 9: How to Beautify and Maintain Your Garden in the Power of the Holy Spirit

31 It is like a mustard seed planted in the ground. It is the smallest of all seeds,32 but it becomes the largest of all garden plants; it grows long branches, and birds can make nests in its shade.”

MARK 4: 31-32
