Roots source the nourishment to the plant. Roots are the agent that extract minerals and nourishment from the ground. Thus it’s important that the roots of a plant are deepening at the right place having the right nourishment.

Suppose a mango seed is planted in a desert, no matter the amount of water you put into the seed it won’t grow because the roots can never extract the right nutrition from desert to provide for the mango tree to begin growth. That’s exactly what happens when Christians try to gain knowledge and growth from the world, when they try to source their productivity from the elements of this world. Their roots are not able to find correct nourishment and thus their growth gets hindered.

It’s important that you keep a check on yourself. Who are your friends? What are your conversations? How much time do you spend in fellowshipping with the Spirit? How much time do you spend in the Word? How much time do you spend on social media? Where do you invest your finances? If the answer to these questions does not lead you to God and His purpose for your life, then you need to initiate a change in your way of life.

Wherever you thrive mentally and physically that’s where your roots will extract nourishment from. If your mind and body is not stayed on God, your growth: physically and spiritually; is impossible. Make up your mind today to fill yourself with the right nourishment.

Confession:

I keep my mind stayed on Lord Jesus Christ. I stand my ground in faith and establish myself in the Word of God. I nurture my spirit with the things from above and not from the earthly things. I’m fruitful and productive for the glory of God, in Jesus’ Name. Amen!

Different plants and trees need different kinds of ground to grow and be fruitful. The ground or soil needs to be fertile for a seed to reach complete maturity, thereby resulting in a fruitful and productive plant or tree. In Matthew 13:5-9, our Master Jesus talks about the importance the ground has for seeds. The ground is referred to our heart and spirit.

As a Christian, your faith and spiritual growth depend on the ground in which you are deepening your roots. It’s the ground from which the roots extract the nutrients the plant requires for growth. Similarly, the kind of ground you have created in your heart and spirit for your faith to flourish and prosper matters the most.

For your faith to prosper and produce results and cause spiritual maturity, you must fill yourself with the Word of God. A heart full of the Word is a good ground for faith to grow and bring forth abundant fruits. When you fill yourself with the Word of God, you abide in the love of Christ and constantly grow in the love for Lord Jesus Christ. You are immovable and unshakable. No matter the season or situation, you grow and prosper. You are fruitful and productive in all you do. You are a tree planted by the rivers of water that brings forth its fruit in its season, whose leaf also does not wither; and whatever you do shall prosper (Ref. Psalm 1:3).

Therefore, keep the ground of your spirit fertile and do not allow any element of this world to mix in your ground, thereby polluting it and making it less fertile. You belong to God, therefore set your heart on things from above (ref. Colossians 3:2)

Confession:
I’m rooted in Christ Jesus. I’m immovable and unshakable. In all I do I prosper in the Name of Jesus. I am a tree planted by the streams of water, yielding its fruit in season, whose leaf does not wither. I’m full of the Word of God. Thus, my faith is active and producing results for the Glory of God. Hallelujah!
