Wed., 6/5/19 Devotion (Ps. 92:13-14)

Today's encouragement comes from Psalm 92:13 & 14, where we read these words:

"Those who are planted in the house of the LORD shall flourish in the courts of our God. They shall still bear fruit in old age; they shall be fresh and flour-ishing . . . "

Many of us enjoyed our Sabbath worship and rest just three days ago. If in-deed we *are* "planted in the house of the Lord," then we are primed to live a full life in Jesus, the Author and King of Life—from at least the moment of our baptisms, till our bodily deaths. Furthermore, we will be "fruitful," not spiritual-ly barren. Our souls will develop more and more Christlikeness all the time—Lord’s Day, to Lord’s Day.

Where are *we* "planted" today? If it is in “the house of the Lord,” then we will inevitably “be fresh and flourishing."
