SEND OUT ITS ROOTS BY THE STREAM ?

[Santoso]

Beloved ones, we heard: 

 

“Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord, whose trust is the Lord. -Jeremiah 17:7

 

He is like a tree planted by water, that sends out its roots by the stream, and does not fear when heat comes, for its leaves remain green, and is not anxious in the year of drought, for it does not cease to bear fruit." -Jeremiah 17:8

 

That we heard “that sends out its ROOTS by the stream” so we understand the stream that send its ROOTS? 

 

How we may understand “that sends out its roots BY the stream ? 

 

BY meaning :

1. identifying the agent performing an action.
2. indicating the means of achieving something.

 

We understand the agent performing an action is water or the stream. That water or the stream indicating the means of achieving, for its leaves remain green, and is not anxious in the year of drought, for it does not cease to bear fruit.

 

If the man who trusts in the Lord, whose trust is the Lord is like a tree planted BY water, that sends out its roots BY the stream and does not fear when heat comes.

 

We may understand that water or the stream identify with the Lord, the the agent performing an action, for its leaves remain green, and is not anxious in the year of drought, for it does not cease to bear fruit, that we indicate the Lord is the means of achieving this. 

 

That we may understand, for a man is like a tree planted by water, is like a man placed a seed by the Lord,is like a man placed the Word of God by the Lord.

 

That we may understand, for water, that sends out its ROOTS by the stream, is like the Lord that sends a man’s ROOTS by Him. 

 

That we may understand the Lord that sends a man’s ROOTS by Him is the Lord sends a new man’s ROOTS by Him, that is, the Lord sends Jesus Christ’s roots by Him ( God the Father ), that is, the Lord sends those who are rooted in the truth by Him ( Jesus Christ), that is, the Lord  sends whom He purify in truth, by Him, Jesus Christ our Lord. 

 

That we may understand, for by the stream, that a tree does not fear when heat comes, is like by the Lord, that a man who does not fear when tribulation comes.

 

That we may understand that we indicate the Lord is the means of achieving for its leaves remain green, for children of a new man remain flourishing or prospering.

 

That we may understand that we indicate the Lord is the means of achieving for a tree 

is not anxious in the year of drought, for a new man is not anxious but peaceful when tribulation arise throughout the year or when the sun is up,for he is peaceful when tribulation comes, that he is peaceful in the abundance of teachings of the Lord,

for the teachings of the Lord deliver him from tribulation and give him peace. 

 

That we may understand that we indicate the Lord is the means of achieving for a tree does not cease to bear fruit,

for a new man does not stop speaking of the word of the truth of the gospel, that those who hear may know the grace of God in truth, for a new man does not stop speaking of the word of the truth of the gospel, bear or reap the fruit of righteousness leading to holiness and the result is eternal life, for the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

 

To God the Father be all glory and thanksgiving through Christ Jesus. Amen
