1. Mark 4:24 (ESV)
  2. Exposition

What happens when one thinks highly of God's word?

Mark 4:24 (ESV)

24 And he said to them, “Pay attention to what you hear: with the measure you use, it will be measured to you, and still more will be added to you.

The higher you think of Jesus’ word, the higher you will be honoured by God: “with the measure you use, it will be measured to you, and still more will be added to you.” Only when Jesus’ gospel becomes the sole treasure in our life, because we realize that only in him all the riches of God are to be found, are we enlightened and receive the grace to bear a hundredfold fruit. Then we see what we hear.1
