Get Planted, Stay Planted | Mike Teixeira

Ephesians 2:19 (LB)

“You are a member of God’s very own family and YOU BELONG in God’s household with every other Christian.”

Big Idea: “A planted life is how we grow, heal and thrive!”

Ps. 92:12- “The righteous will flourish like a palm tree, they will grow like a cedar of Lebanon…”

Psalm 92:13

“PLANTED in the house of the Lord, they will FLOURISH in the courts of our God”

Psalm 1:2-3 (NLT)

² But they delight in the law of the Lord, meditating on it day and night. ³ They are like trees planted along the riverbank, bearing fruit each season. Their leaves never wither, and they prosper in all they do.

Jeremiah 17:7-8 (NLT)

⁷ “But blessed are those who trust in the Lord and have made the Lord their hope and confidence. ⁸ They are like trees planted along a riverbank, with roots that reach deep into the water. Such trees are not bothered by the heat or worried by long months of drought. Their leaves stay green, and they never stop producing fruit.
