The Plant, Water, and the Sun

Some plant leaves were drooping, withered, and turning brown. The leaves were in this condition because the plant had not been watered for over a week. When the plant was watered, rotated, and placed in an area to receive sunlight, it was restored to its original state. It’s amazing how nutrients like water and sunlight can revive neglected plants, and keep them healthly and alive.

The sun, water, and plant are symbolic to: 1) mankind (the plant), 2) the Word of God (water), and 3) the Son of God (sun). Saved individuals can end up like droopy, withered, brown-edged leaves on plants if they neglect to daily feed their souls and spirits with the word of God, and stay in the presence of His Son.

How many of you have family members or loved ones you believe need a relationship with the Lord, but you have given up because the more you talk or pray for your loved ones, the worse off they become? Or, how many of you no longer go around your family members since you’ve been saved? Don’t neglect to feed your family members or loved ones the main nutrients they need to live to their fullest potential.

If it appears your loved ones are resisting God, continue to place them before the Son so they can receive the energy (i.e., the power) to go before the throne of God and ask Him to enter into their hearts.

Remember, all things are possible through God (Matthew 19:26). And, God is the resurrection and the life, and if anyone believes in Him, though they were dead, they shall live (John 11:25)! So, do as the Apostle Paul and Apollos - Paul planted and Apollos watered, but God gave the increase (I Corinthians 3:6)!
