Duane Sheriff Ministries - Messages The Mystery Of Seeds | Episode 5 | Death Of The Seed
In the fifth episode of "The Mystery of Seeds," Duane Sheriff explores the profound necessity of a seed's death to produce a harvest, drawing parallels between physical and spiritual seeds. John 12 reveals that seeds remain dormant until they are sown and must die to bear fruit, similar to Jesus, the promised seed, whose sacrificial death resulted in a global harvest of believers.
Just as natural seeds must literally split and die in the ground to transform from one form into something greater, our spiritual seeds require the same process. When we give, show kindness, or demonstrate mercy, these seeds only produce a harvest when we release control and let them "die" by trusting God completely. True seed death means surrendering the when, where, and how of our harvest to Jesus, the Lord of the harvest. We plant, we water through prayer, but only God gives the increase in His perfect timing.
