The LORD
Seeds and weeds come through the wind and find a rock crevice. Weeds, much like hard hearts, allow for bitter fruits to take root. Weeds are not planted, they are scattered.
As important as it is to be ROOTED, it is just as important to UPROOT that which you do not want to grow.
Weeds produce thorns, Roots produce fruit.
A lifestyle of faith rooted in wellness that honors God involves both planting and uprooting.
If there is an emotional weed that has blown in through the wind of adversity and has taken seed on your fertile soil of acceptance and attached to your identity… then lifestyle choices will be made based on that bitter root of insecurity, failure, fear, lie, and limits.
So it’s time for us to UPROOT…
However, if there is a spiritual seed that lands on your fertile soil after traveling through trials and tests yielded to God… then that seed will soak into the ground and take root in the process of continual submission and humble malleability. It will spread and find itself worthy of withstanding the storm because it was planted in humble faith and flexibility of God’s plan and provision.
The fruit of divine intelligence and intention is the product of the “seed” that was well received and allowed to establish roots to be planted in order to produce purpose in the pain, rather than to harbor a bitter root of complaining.
When we are planted; we are proposed to produce.
When we are potted; we are seasonal at best, without much room for growth.
It is by his guidance in the prophetic we know what to plant, pot, and uproot.
All of life comes down to this sowing and reaping, harvesting and pruning principle.

Scripture
“The seed falling among the thorns refers to someone who hears the word, but the worries of this life and the deceitfulness of wealth choke the word, making it unfruitful. But the seed falling on good soil refers to someone who hears the word and understands it. This is the one who produces a crop, yielding a hundred, sixty or thirty times what was sown.”
-Matthew 13:23
Prayer
“Oh Lord, My God Adonai, you are master over all, in all and through all. You are divine over everything at a single command your plans prevail.”
Reflective Response
Adonai, I believe you are my master.
Please forgive me for doing things my own way and not waiting on your divine wisdom and yielding to your prophetic power to speak through me, so I can SAY TO under your divine leading.
I thank you for speaking through me. I ask that you would open my ears to hear your words that I may open my mouth to deliver your truth!
