Be Immovable…

Be strong and immovable
1 Corinthians 15:58

It amazes me that after the greatest storm or tsunami there are still trees that remain standing. They’ve been battered, beaten & scared but they endure. In no time at all they sprout, grow and flourish again. They’ve withstood the storm, it didn’t kill them, it simply made them stronger.

In today’s verse the Apostle Paul lets us know that we, like these trees, should be both strong & immovable. We’re to firmly stand on God’s Word and remain in the place He’s planted us [Psalm 92:12-15]. We’re not meant to yield & run when life’s storms hit. We’re to stay strong & immovable, let the storm pass and then flourish & grow again.

Many believers run & hide every time there’s opposition. That’s really not God’s way and we never see Jesus doing this. Whenever opposition hits, we’re to remain strong and immovable in God’s promises. This enables us to endure, remain & flourish again… rather than being washed away & wrecked in life.

This week let’s firm up our roots so we can be both strong & immovable through future storms. We’re taught in Colossians 2:7 to let our roots grow down into God as we build our lives up in Him. Let’s see how deep we can go in God by digging into His Word, the Bible. It’s a lot easier than we think to become both strong & immovable in life.

Tending Time…

Tend an orchard and you’ll have fruit to eat
Proverbs 27:18

Does the neighbour’s garden always look greener and lusher than yours? They’re probably spending more time, energy & resources tending it to achieve a superior result. There’s no use complaining about how great their garden looks. Yours would have the same result if you tended it with the same fervour & love as they do.

Today’s verse shows us a key promise from God’s Word. We’re told that whatever we tend, watch over, guard & nurture will produce fruit. The fruit produced is intended for the person or people who nurtured it. They each benefit from their nurture. It would be wrong to never tend & nurture something but still expect to eat what it produces. [Deuteronomy 32:4]

The Church you go to is an orchard of God [Psalm 92:12-15]. As we tend, watch over, guard & nurture this place we receive from the bountiful fruits produced there. Anyone who only turns up occasionally and never gets involved shouldn’t expect to partake of God’s great riches in that place. Any believer who plants, cares and tends in their Church will always have a bounty of produce available for their lives.

This week let’s do something to cause our Church to flourish. Discover an area that’s needs nurture then use some of your time, energy & resource to tend it. Before long it’ll be producing fruit. The more fruit it produces the more attention it will gain from the onlookers. When others want to produce the same fruit as you, you’ll be able to show them how. It’s time for the Church of God to Flourish so tend it well so it can!

Time to Tend…
