Psalms 1:3 and Jeremiah 17:8 are both verses that speak of one who is like a tree planted by the water. The needs are met…the nourishment of sun and continual supply of water… the roots are planted firmly, deeply.
Think today about your own spiritual life…
Are you planted deeply with a good foundation? Without healthy, deep roots the tree would tumble over from the weight of its being and the wind would surely get the best of it. Our foundation has to be planted in God’s Word. Without it, Satan could easily topple over us when trials become heavy to bear. Our continuing nourishment and strength has to be from our Heavenly Father. God’s Word is our constant supply of nourishment. Plant your feet in God’s House today…. be faithful to hear His Word!
I Shall Not Be Moved
Jesus is my Savior, I shall not be moved;
In His love and favor, I shall not be moved,
Just like a tree that’s planted by the waters,
Lord, I shall not be moved.
In my Christ abiding, I shall not be moved;
In His love I’m hiding, I shall not be moved,
Just like a tree that’s planted by the waters,
Lord, I shall not be moved.
If I trust Him ever, I shall not be moved;
He will fail me never, I shall not be moved,
Just like a tree that’s planted by the waters,
Lord, I shall not be moved.
On His word I’m feeding, I shall not be moved;
He’s the One that’s leading, I shall not be moved,
Just like a tree that’s planted by the waters,
Lord, I shall not be moved.
Chorus
I shall not be, I shall not be moved;
I shall not be, I shall not be moved;
Just like a tree that’s planted by the waters,
Lord, I shall not be moved.
