Joyce Meyer Daily Devotional – 6th August 2025 (Wednesday) Message
TOPIC: The Righteous Flourish
The righteous will flourish like a palm tree, they will grow like a cedar of Lebanon. – — Psalm 92:12 (NIV)
TODAY’S MESSAGE
When we flourish, we develop in a healthy and vigorous way. This kind of growth is a promise to the righteous. The righteous are those who trust God and believe His promises. Through faith in Christ, we are viewed as righteous, meaning that God sees us as being in right standing with Him (2 Corinthians 5:21).
A cedar tree can grow as much as a foot per year. Because of its rich foliage and beauty, it is a very desirable tree. This psalm promises that a righteous person will flourish and grow like a cedar. I love growth in God, and I delight in becoming more and more like Jesus all the time.
Our verse for today tells us that the righteous will be fruitful, healthy, and beautiful, and will flourish and show quick growth. This sounds good to me, and I am sure it does to you also. Keep these promises in mind as you press on to serve God with all your heart. You will grow today as you serve and love Him with all your heart.
Prayer of the Day: Father, thank You for growth in You. I want to be more like Jesus. You have given me the Holy Spirit to transform me into His image, and I want to submit to Him in all things. Please help me do so.
