Be a Planted Seed

by John Bevere
DESCRIPTION
Being planted means that you lay down your life to serve God in the church you are in.
Those who are planted in the house of the Lord shall flourish in the courts of our God (Psalm 92:13, NKJV).

Flourishing “in the courts of our God” includes at the judgment seat of Christ. If you have done what God called you to do, He will be pleased when he examines your life. To know the call of God on your life, you must be planted in the local church. If you want to find out what a seed is, just plant it. A plant that is transplanted constantly will stop bearing fruit and eventually die, but a planted seed will inevitably grow into its destiny.

So, if you are planted in the local church you are going to grow into your destiny. Being planted means that you lay down your life to serve God in the church you are in. A seed must die to produce fruit. The environment of the soil will put the perfect amount of pressure on the seed to crack it open so that the life inside it will come forth.
