 There's things we get by coming to Jesus, but there are some things only we get by growing in Jesus. The illustration of the palm tree always fascinates me. When some of you know the palm tree, when it's young you can put a chain around it to keep it grow straight. And unlike other trees, palm tree will not allow the rope to get inside of the palm tree when the palm tree grows up. Actually, as the palm tree begins to grow, any rope around the palm tree, regardless of how strong and powerful they are, they actually will snap and break. Other trees will allow the ropes to grow inside as the tree is growing. And the point of the Bible says that you and I are like a palm tree. That means that there are things you are not going to get when you come to Jesus. Only we'll get when you grow in Him. Many of us think when I come to Jesus I get everything. It is true you get rest, but He says grow in me because there are things that only come into your life when you grow with Him, in Him, not when you come to Him. You get some things when you come to Him, but there are things that only come when you grow through Him. There are deliverances you can achieve by coming to prayer line, but there are certain things in your life that only come when you grow. That's why disciples were casting out a demon and Jesus says this is a different kind of thing. He says this only comes through prayer and fasting. It means this comes when you grow. This comes when you pray. This comes when you come into the Bible. This doesn't come through prayer line. He says this doesn't come differently. He says there are certain things that will only come when you grow in me. Learn from me and then you will find rest. The same rest I promised to give you when you come to me is the same rest now you can find when you grow in me. Jesus says you will know the truth and the truth will set you free. What that means is this is that as you grow in your knowledge there is a freedom that exists when you know Jesus. We all are used to, well I just want the pastor to lay hands on me. I just want Jesus to set me free, but there is a certain level of freedom that only exists when you grow in Jesus. If you ever seen, and I use this illustration in the church, if you ever seen how little chickens are born, you found a very interesting picture when a little chicken is inside of the egg and the mother has a very unique way of causing the little chicken to come out and she sits on those eggs for 21 days and causes the warmth of her body to fill that place and those little chickens inside of the egg they begin to form and they begin to grow a little bit bigger and bigger and bigger until you can actually take an egg and you can already almost see inside a little chicken and at that time you would think the mama would look at the egg and see the little chicken inside wanting to get out and the mama will help kind of like at least with the mouth or with the foot but the mama never helps a little chicken get out of the egg. It's rude, harsh, evil, unhumane. Sometimes you want to take a hammer, like when I was younger, that's what I wanted to do. I wanted until my parents stopped me. I want to take a hammer and go just crack it. Just help them, poor little children, but the mama knows one thing. If I keep sitting on them, they keep growing bigger and bigger and bigger and one day they will outgrow their shell and their shell will crack on their own and mama never helps them. She helps them with other things. She helps them to be conceived. She helps them with other things, but she doesn't help the certain shells in your life. God is going to let you be in him and so you can grow out of it.
