Psalm 92:12
The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree: he shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon.
To flourish means to grow well, to be healthy, to be very successful and to do very well. To flourish also means to prosper. This is the portion of the Christian. God has blessed you to the extent that you can’t be insignificant in life. You have the power to flourish.
Psalm 92:12 says “The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree: he shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon”.
This was the grace that operated in the life of Joseph. Although he found himself in a strange land, his union with God and reverence for the things of God caused him to flourish.
Genesis 39:2-3 says “And the Lord was with Joseph, and he was a prosperous man; and he was in the house of his master the Egyptian. And his master saw that the Lord was with him, and that the Lord made all that he did to prosper in his hand”.
Joseph flourished irrespective of where he found himself. Because the Lord was with him, nothing could take away the seed of prosperity from him.
You see, your story must be the same. Irrespective of where you find yourself, you have to flourish. Your spiritual life, education, career, finances and your health must always move from glory to glory.
Never think failure and never live or perform below standard.
You have a royal mandate to shine. The Bible says we are priest and kings, and we are to show God’s glory with our lives.
See 1 Peter 2:9, “But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light”.
