TOPIC: YOUR ROOT – A DETERMINANT OF YOUR PLACE IN LIFE
SCRIPTURE: And the remnant that is escaped of the house of Judah shall again take root downward, and bear fruit upward: Isaiah 37:31, KJV
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Your foundation in God determines your destination in life.
It is very important to know that your foundation in God determines your destination or place in life. If you must go far in life, your foundation in God must be solid. If you want to grow tall in life, your root or foundation in God must be deep and strong.
To take root downwards is to bear fruit upwards. Genesis 19:27 says:
And Abraham gat up early in the morning to the place where he stood before the Lord:
Your root in God determines your place in life; your foundation in God determines your destination in life. There are three categories of people on earth as far as destiny foundation or root is concerned:
- People with zero root.
- People with shallow root.
- People with strong root.
One reason a witch can wipe out a person is because his root is not strong in God. The wind that can blow and uproot an iroko tree hardly exists. This is because an iroko tree has strong roots. Grass or shrubs can easily be blown off by wind because of their weak roots.
Today, many people are at the mercy of the circumstances of life because of the shallowness of their roots in God. Despite the promise of God to bring us prosperity and not disaster (Jeremiah 29:11), our root in God determines our place in life.
Beloved, do not live a life that is easily pluckable by the devil, witch or wizard; be rooted in God. Take root in God to bear fruits in life.
REMEMBER THIS: Your foundation in God determines your destination in life
ASSIGNMENTS:
- Make up your mind to develop your root in God.
- Press into God by developing a consistent relationship with God.
PRAYER: Thank You Lord for the revelation of Your Word to me today. I ask for the grace to develop deep and strong roots in You, Lord, in Jesus’ Name.

QUOTE: You see, when you lose connection with your root, you cannot maintain your fruits. Culled from “21 FOOLISH THINGS PEOPLE DO” by Dr Paul Enenche.
DAILY BIBLE READING: Exodus 36-40.
REFLECTION: The wind blows on all of creation but the wind cannot destroy all. Your outcome in life is not determined by your circumstances. Your outcome is determined by your taproot in God.
PROPHETIC WORD/DECLARATION: Every wind of adversity attempting to blow off your life is arrested and sent back to hell in Jesus’ Name.
