OCTOBER 18, 2022 – Take Root And Move

OCTOBER 18, 2022
Daily Reading – Isa. 40-41 / Col. 2

WHAT GOD HAS SAID:

Colossians 2:6-7 As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him: Rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving.

WHAT I HAVE SEEN:

  When we think of things rooted, our thoughts often go to plant life. The deeper the roots, the sturdier they become. Harsh winds may blow, yet these deeply rooted plants are not moved. Or are they? We may not notice it, yet these firmly rooted plants are moving with the earth’s rotation. Also, the earth is moving, orbiting around the sun. Rooted well, and yet moving.

  Much like the hardy plant life, we as believers must also be rooted in Christ Jesus. Built upon Him as our rock of foundation. Having our faith established in the teaching of His Word. When this is true, we abound, live, and move in Him. Being led by Christ, brings about thanksgiving.

WHAT WILL YOU DO:

Friend, is your life moving with, or apart from Christ? Are you Rooted and moving?
