Bacon And Eggs.

For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God. (Col 3:3)

What do Bacon and Eggs have to do with Life in Christ? Throughout the scriptures, we see how Christ used parables and analogies to get his point across. The Lord brought to my attention not long ago, Bacon and Eggs! My favorite meal is Breakfast, especially Bacon and Eggs.

God showed me something with my breakfast. The chicken and the pig. They both did something. The chicken laid an egg, but the pig was committed. What are you doing for Christ? Are you faithful unto death?

A seed to give fruit has to die first. It is a classic example of the resurrection of Christ! Christ compared himself to a seed. ( John 12:23-24) When he rose again, the seeds that had been planted in the life of the disciples bore fruit, and they started speaking in tongues. On that day, 3,000 souls were added and a church was born. (Acts 2:41, Acts 11:26)

Again, consider the seed. Bear in mind that to grow, it has to be planted. It has to die in order to give fruit. You have the incorruptible seed inside of you (If you are born again), but you have to plant it. In the planting process, the Holy Spirit has been given to you as your helper. He is the one who will help you bear fruit in your lives.

Buried Treasure

Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto treasure hid in a field; the which when a man hath found, he hideth, and for joy thereof goeth and selleth all that he hath, and buyeth that field. ( Matt 13:44 )

Your Bible is where you have the seeds of that hidden treasure. When you learn to die to self, you will unleash revelation knowledge that will revolutionize your walk with Jesus. ( 2 Peter 1:3-4 ) In him are all the promises are yea and Amen. The buried treasure will take form within your Spirit, Soul and Body.

Like the chicken and the hog. One did something, but the other was committed. Don’t just put your hand to the plow and be half committed. Go all the way. Take out time to pray, study, and meditate on who you are in Christ and what belongs to you. As you sow those seed and water them thru prayer, you will learn to die to self.

Dying to self is not easy. There is a place of suffering. You have to deny your flesh. Family will misunderstand you. Those who are close family members will persecute you. (Matt 10:36) The enemy will test you because he is after your seed. Never forget that. Learn to watch and be faithful. God will reward you.
