The parable of the Mustard Seed

Mustard seed is smaller than all the seeds that are on the earth. At the same time, when it grow up, it will become greater than all the trees. The word of God is given by Jesus to a few people in the beginning. They were the disciples of Jesus. Now this word of God has spread all over the world like a big tree. The small seed here mention is about the word of God, and the huge bush is the group of people who are carrying the word of God ie. His disciples. In this passage it says that the birds of the sky can lodge under its shadow. Now many people can get peace and deliverance from the word of God and through the people of God.

God`s kingdom

The small seed that He sowed should become a great system, highly exalted in the earth, capable of affording temporal protection to those that took shelter in it. Thus we have the work of preaching the word; the responsibility of the labourers to whom the Lord would entrust it during His absence; His own action at the beginning and at the end, at seed-time and at harvest, Himself remaining at a distance during the interval; and the formation of a great earthly power as the result of the truth which He preached, and which created a little nucleus around Himself. We have the role to preach the word of God in growing the God`s Kingdom.

A Lamp on a stand

Jesus is giving example of a lamp. The candle, the design and use of which is purposed to give light to men. Here the Gospel, which is the candle of the Lord, He had lighted up in the evening of the Jewish world, in the land of Judea; it was not His will that it should be always, and altogether, and from all men, covered with parables, and dark sayings, without any explanation of them; but that the light of it should be communicated, especially to them His; disciples, who were to be the lights of the world, and which were to shine openly before men, for their good, and the glory of His heavenly Father. This parable meant that we are the disciples and we have to shine for Jesus.
