God wants you to be righteous in Him.

Verse: Proverbs 12:3

“No one can be established through wickedness, but a righteous root cannot be moved”

Do you ever feel tossed around by the storms of life?

Have you ever seen a tree in a hurricane? The winds and the rain blow the leaves from the branches, and sometimes the branches are torn off, or the tree is blown over. But the tree's roots are protected from the weather by being firmly established in the ground.

The same is true in our lives. If our thinking is not in line with the Word of God, we become vulnerable during the difficult times. But when our thoughts are in line with God's thoughts, He plants a righteous root within us. We become firmly established. Our thinking becomes clear so we can be strong and overcome the storms of life.

God wants you to be solid. He wants you to be steady. He wants you to have an established life and character. He wants your roots to grow deep in His Word.

God wants you to be righteous in Him.

Ask the Lord today to show any areas of your thought life that might need to be firmly planted in God's Word.

As you develop your relationship with the Lord you will grow deep spiritual roots and stand victoriously against the storms of life.

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, thank you for your plan for my life today. Help me to grow deep roots in you. Cause my thoughts to be your thoughts so that I will be strong and established. Thank you for your favor and blessing in my life today. In Jesus' Name, amen.

Have a blessed Sunday!
