PLANTED AND FLOURISHING


Psalm 92:12-14 (NLT) But the godly will flourish like palm trees and grow strong like the cedars of Lebanon. 13 For they are transplanted to the Lord’s own house.They flourish in the courts of our God. 14 Even in old age they will still produce fruit; they will remain vital and green.


THE GODLY WILL FLOURISH


FLOURISH (PERACH) – “to blossom or bloom”
“to develop”


FAVOR is about GOD’S PROSPERITY but FLOURISHING is about GOD’S PROCESS


PLANTED & FLOURISHING


Ecclesiastes 3:1-2 (NLT) For everything there is a season, a time for every activity under heaven. 2 A time to be born and a time to die. A time to plant and a time to harvest.


You don’t START as a STAR–you START as a SEED


Starting as a SEED isn’t LIMITING–it is LIBERATING


Matthew 13:31-32 (NLT) Here is another illustration Jesus used: “The Kingdom of Heaven is like a mustard seed planted in a field. 32 It is the smallest of all seeds, but it becomes the largest of garden plants; it grows into a tree, and birds come and make nests in its branches.”


A SEED in your HAND has POTENTIAL–but a seed in the GROUND has PURPOSE


You will never experience your BLOOM SEASON until you experience your BURIED SEASON


YOU carry the DNA of GOD


It’s never too LATE to plant your LIFE
