...They are like trees planted along the riverbank,
bearing fruit each season.
Their leaves never wither,
and they prosper in all they do...
These words here speak of the blessed man, the one who delights in the word of God, the man who does not walk in the counsel of the ungodly. His blessedness is likened to a tree, fruitful and flourishing.
The more you meditate in the word of God, the better equipped you will be for every good word and work. You will be like a tree planted by the riverbank bearing fruit each season. You will bring forth your fruit (that which is required of you) in due season, when it is most beautiful and most useful, at the right time. Your leaf shall not wither. Recall that the leaf of a tree is what generates food for the tree. What you do shall be preserved from blemish and decay. Your reputation and your achievements will never wither. You shall be prosperous in all you do. Whatever you do, in conformity to the word of God, it shall prosper and succeed.
Knowing the power and efficacy of God’s grace, from which your fruit is found, continue meditating on the word of God and abound in the fruit of righteousness, which Jesus Christ has paid fully for you
Prayer: My Loving Father, thank You for Your word. As I meditate in Your word, I know great and mighty things are happening in me. I pray that I will have a continuous desire to spend time with You and Your word. I pray for Your grace to fortify me against every evil word and work, and to furnish me for every good word and work. May my fruit flourish in beautifully and at the right time. In Jesus Name I pray, Amen.
