MONDAY MOTIVATION | WE SHALL NOT BE MOVED
Psalm 1:1–6
“And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season…”
There is something powerful about being planted.
A tree that is planted has roots. The wind may blow, the branches may shake, and the leaves may fall, but if the roots are deep, the tree is still standing.
That’s how we have to be in this hour.
We are living in a world full of pressure, compromise, confusion, and things trying to pull us away from God. But when everything around us is shaking, the Rock is still solid.
What have we built our lives upon?
Are we built upon truth?
Are we built upon righteousness?
Are we built upon the Word of God?
Because when the storm comes, our foundation matters.
Everybody won’t understand why we choose to stand for truth. Everybody won’t agree with us. But we’re not trying to be planted in the approval of people
we’re trying to be planted in God.
The storm may shake the tree, but it doesn’t have to move the roots.
And sometimes, God allows the leaves to fall.
Sometimes He has to prune the tree. Sometimes things have to be cut away so something greater can grow. Just because we don’t see fruit right now doesn’t mean God isn’t working.
The roots may be growing deeper where nobody can see them.
Don’t mistake a season of pruning for a season of dying. Keep holding on.
The devil wants us to quit. He wants us to falter. He wants us to walk away.
But we’ve come too far to turn around now.
We started out to win, and we’re going to keep fighting until we finish!
Jesus said:
“Upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.” — Matthew 16:18
The gates of hell cannot destroy what God has built.
So when the winds blow—stand.
When the pressure comes—stand.
When the world compromises—stand.
When we don’t understand—stand.
When we feel like giving up—stand.
Because our feet are on the Rock, our minds are made up, and our foundation is sure.
The storm doesn’t get the final say.
The pressure doesn’t get the final say.
The enemy doesn’t get the final say.
GOD DOES!!!
We’re planted. We’re rooted. We’re established. We’re standing on the Rock.
WE SHALL NOT BE MOVED!
