“The righteous will flourish like a palm tree, they will grow like a cedar of Lebanon; planted in the house of the Lord, they will flourish in the courts of our God. They will still bear fruit in old age, they will stay fresh and green, proclaiming, ‘The LORD is upright; he is my Rock, and there is no wickedness in him.’”
Psalm 92:12–15, NIV
The righteous representing a palm tree flourishing is a perfect analogy. The palm tree stands upright, bears fruit, and endures strong winds. Cedar of Lebanon is a beautiful tree, which has been considered high-quality timber for ages. A righteous life in Christ brings a life that is thriving and everbearing fruit. A life like that can only come from a life in Christ.
The Lord is upright, pure, and perfect—He is our Rock. We can flourish because we have Christ, our Rock. The Rock of our salvation! He is our refuge, fortress, and deliverer. No matter what this life throws our way, we can stand tall like a Palm tree on God’s Truth. When we are planted in Christ, we will flourish, bear goof fruits, and remain strong through any storm.
Remember that you are planted in Christ. Only through God can you flourish. Pray that God will strengthen you more and more in Him. Be planted in God’s Word and allow Him to be your Rock now and forevermore.
"No matter what this life throws our way, we can stand tall like a Palm tree on God’s Truth."
