PSALMS CHAPTER ONE

THE NURISHED TREE FLOURISHES

Have you ever taken the time to stare down a tree.   You notice that the tree just stands there.    You can learn alot from a tree.    Just look at the bark and notice the texture.    The Texture gives some indications of the trees health.   Also notice the height of the tree.   You can observe even if you've never seen the tree before of its success in growing.    Some trees show their signs of struggling to grow while others are fat and flourishing.    Then a most indicative indication of the health of the tree is its leaves.    From them you can see how green they are and how fully developed they have become.    These are all small indicators of the health of the tree.

In the passage of this chapter its given of a tree planted by the rivers of water which indicate the location of the tree enables its growth and ability to thrive.    As Christians if we are rightly located we too will grow spiritually for God.    We must be daily in the scriptures.     Daily in the Word of God letting theWords of God dwell in us richlly.     Also we must be located amongst fellow believers which meaning we should spend our days amidst good Godly fellowship.    Also, we must find ourselves in the Church under the hearing ear of the Word of God.    Its sad to say many Christians have de-valuated the importance of hearing the Word of God.    There is a dearth of hearing the Word of God.    Our society was so much more enriching in days past when society did not as much pull the individual out of church as it does now.

Many believers are not grwoing like they should and its because of the location for which they have planted themselves.    We must plant ourselves under the sounding voice of the scriptures daily so that we can be "Always abounding, unmovable in the work of the Lord.
