DAY 29 OF 30

Deeply Rooted in Him...

As you therefore have received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him, rooted and built up in Him and established in the faith, as you have been taught, abounding in it with thanksgiving.
Colossians 2:6-7

The apostle Paul writes frequently about faith being rooted and established in the infinite love of God.

Mind you, Paul is not talking about some flimsy root system where a tree bowls over whenever a storm or tempest blows. Paul speaks of a root system that goes deep with both intellectual knowledge and first-hand experience of God’s love in the power and presence of the Holy Spirit. These roots enable the tree to stand firm no matter how violent, harsh, or unrelenting the winds of adversity are. This type of faith has as its marker – abounding praise.

No, not flimsy, shallow thanksgiving, but effusive, extra-ordinary, over-the-top, excessive, overflowing worship. Gulp.

Do I live in that kind of faith choosing to trust Him over fear or worry; choosing to believe His Word over the enemy’s whispers? Do I eagerly surrender all my concerns into His more than capable hands?

The Scriptures speak of a sweet, never-ending cycle.

  • Trusting Jesus brings peace and joy.
  • Peace and joy bubble over into thanksgiving and praise.
  • Offering thanksgiving and praise for all He has done encourages my faith.
  • My faith releases heaven’s bounty and the demise of the enemy’s work in my life.
  • And if what I am going through currently still seems dim, the Holy Spirit will take me to the next level of trust, rejoicing, and faith by resting in the certainty that His grace is more than sufficient and He is at work.

Today, let’s meditate upon and revel in God’s beyond reason love, surrendering our every care to Him. And let our thanksgiving abound!
