Tree by the Rivers of Water!

“They are like trees planted by the rivers of water, that bear fruit at the right time, and whose leaves do not dry up. They succeed in everything they do.” Psalm 1:3

As long as the earth will be, principles will remain. Day and night will never cease to substitute, likewise the dry and rainy season. Meanwhile, during these two periods, a tree or any other plant needs water as an essential substance for growth and production. A tree or plant by the rivers does not experience the harshness of the ground’s weather and dryness when the rainy period ceases. This is because the river supplies water, moisture, and coolness the plant needs.

The scripture emphasizes that you can be like the tree by the rivers of water. As a believer, there is no such experience of dryness and harshness with you even when others experience that. This is what differentiates a believer from others as seasons and times change because God has made substantial provision for everyone who abides in His word and follows His commandments.

Isaiah 3:10 says, “Tell the righteous it will be well for them, for they will enjoy the fruit of their labor.”

Isaac dwelt in Gerar as instructed by the Lord, and he lived as if there was no famine. The Lord prospered him greatly, just like a tree planted by the riverside. While there was a severe famine in Egypt, God planted His children, Israel’s family, just like the tree planted by the river of water, and they knew not famine. Likewise, as you move close and closer to God, you will see that your life will not experience drought or famine in Jesus’ name.

You are also in the plan of God, He has made provision for all your need, and you can be like the tree planted by the rivers of water that blossoms at all time. Regardless of seasonal changes, economic recession, business meltdown, marriage disaster, and all sort of harshness and dryness, you will be like that tree planted by the rivers of water that brings forth his fruit in his season; your leaf also shall not wither, and whatsoever you do, shall prosper in Jesus name. Amen. Psalm 92:12 says, “The righteous will flourish like a palm tree, and grow like a cedar in Lebanon.”

Prayer:
1. Lord, help me to be a tree planted by the river of water that brings forth his fruit in my season.
2. Psalm 128:2: “When you eat the labor of your hands, You shall be happy, and it shall be well with you.” in Jesus’ name!
