Feel the long suffering patient love of our Father, as we read chapter after chapter, about the lack of love from His people. Mankind will obey GOD when the revelation of true love is revealed and received in Their heart.The revelation of Mercy reveals to us our unfaithful heart and the Grace of GOD empowers us to despise sin and walk away from it. When I read verse four the words "Green Tree" stood out to me and I remembered the significance of trees,especially green trees,and Evergreen trees.Dutch Sheets was given revelation about a dream that led him to Abraham planting a Tamarisk Evergreen Tree in BeerSheva. Evergreen stands for an Everlasting Covenant,Dutch went on to say,and the Tamarisk is a slow growing tree that can live anywhere because of a tap root that will grow forever deep. The root Word of GOD must grow deeply into the ground in our heart.The slow growth produces everlasting shade. Jesus cursed the fig tree,which doesn't provide much shade,but fruit (Mark 11:12-25).The tree was not producing fruit of the Evergreen Everlasting Covenant with GOD,and it withered away and died,not immediately but over time.Israel's Spiritual relationship was withering away to the point of sacrificing to false gods under the green tree of Covenant with GOD,and they suffered war and destruction continually. We wither away Spiritually by not bearing good Fruit of GOD'S Holy Spirit,and then stealing killing and destruction robs our families,and our lives. Adam gave us a broken covenant of disobedience and Bless the LORD with all my soul for the New Covenant in CHRIST JESUS our LORD!!! Having some Fruit of the Spirit is better than none,but all the Fruit together shines and glistens with Holy Spirit anointed power to live and keep the Evergreen Covenant of GOD flowing in and through out our lives,saving redeeming delivering healing and restoring our land and the nations.I believe King David sat under an Evergreen, shaded in Mercy, and empowered with Grace in worship and Faith to remove giants and bring peace to a nation.As Dutch Sheets will say " Appeal to Heaven" under the Evergreen Tree of Life!!!
