When the Lord approaches your bush of figs

Omar Soto
(Audio: Spanish)

SUMMARY: The pastor talked about the passage in Mark where Jesus cursed the fig tree because it had no fruit. The speaker shared their own thoughts about the passage and how it made them think about how God is always available to meet our needs, but what if God is hungry for us? The speaker suggests that we need to be available to satisfy God's hunger for us. They also talked about how we tend to justify ourselves when we cannot give what is expected of us, and how important it is to manage our time and respond to the time that God wants to work in our lives. They ended by reading a passage from Romans about the importance of getting up from sleep and putting on the weapons of light.

The speaker discusses the hunger of God for his people and their fruits. They discuss the need to discard the works of darkness and put on the weapons of light, and to live honestly and in a way that pleases God. The speaker notes that people often say it is not yet time to give God what he wants, but that now is the acceptable time for salvation. They emphasize that God is hungry for a fruitful, abundant life for his people and for them to live in his time, not their own. The speaker encourages listeners to think about whether they have fruit to offer God, and to reconnect with him if necessary. They pray for God to guide them towards producing sweet, nourishing fruit in their lives.


The prayer asks God to help individuals align their steps with Him and find time to connect with Him. It asks for a passion for God and for individuals to not be flimsy or boring Christians. The prayer asks for blessings on all individuals and for God to satisfy His longing for them. The prayer ends by asking for safety and for God's word to move individuals to action.


I would like to share something with you today that in some way or another inspired me by the message that the pastor shared last Sunday, I don't know how many of you were here on Sunday, but the pastor was talking about this passage from Mark, Chapter 11 that talk about this moment in which Jesus met the fig tree and that he cursed the fig tree because he found no fruit on it.

As he was preaching an impression came to my mind that I hadn't considered before and I wanted to share some of those things with you because I think there are some secrets in there that we can learn from them.
