God's Spirit takes His word and embeds it in our hearts. And our hearts are changed and transformed and a crop of fruit comes up. The threefold way in which one hears the word of God properly is (1) continually hearing and (2) continually receiving and then (3) it bearing fruit. I am to allow God's Spirit to take His word and continually work this whole cultivation process in my heart. When the trials and tribulations come they cultivate the soil. One person will quit the things of the Lord because of the difficulties. But the true believer, who is born of the Spirit of God, will continue on and learn how to trust the Lord through them.
