God in his infinite wisdom gave variety of plants to mankind for use. Some have seeds while others are propagated vegetatively. The truth is every plant comes with a condition favourable for it growth. A seed may be viable but it may not germinate or die soon after geminating if the soil on which it stands is not a conducive one.
Let's read
Psalms 92:13 - 15
"Those that be planted in the house of the LORD shall flourish in the courts of our God. They shall still bring forth fruit in old age; they shall be fat and flourishing; To shew that the LORD is upright: he is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him." KJV
In Christ we are like seeds sown. We need an environment and a soil which can make us grow to fruition and this is found in the courts of our God. This is where you bear fruits, become fat and flourish even in your old age. It is proven over and over again that those who spend continual time in the presence of the Lord bear unimaginable fruit in order that the glory of the Lord will be made visible.
Its a pity that because of the nature of our world today and it demands for adjustment we hardly spend enough time in the presence of the Lord. It appear as if we have time for everything except for the things of God. This is one of the reasons why we don't often bear fruits as expected. The environment in which we stay are often hostile and does not add value to the quality of life we live.
Where are you planted? Where do you spend much of your time? In front of the T.V or hanging out with friends? We cannot survive if we should be planted outside the court of our God. My dear, there is the need for us to always long for the presence of the Lord because the results are uncountable and its benefit to our own advantage.
Prayer Directive
Let's ask the Lord to rekindle our desire for his presence so that his glory will be seen by all men.
