Don’t Be A Rootless Christian

Don’t Be A Rootless Christian

Matthew 13:5-6 Amplified Bible

5 Other seed fell on rocky ground, where they did not have much soil; and at once they sprang up because they had no depth of soil. 6 But when the sun rose, they were scorched; and because they had no root, they withered away.

Matthew 13:21 Amplified Bible

21 yet he has no [substantial] root in himself, but is only temporary, and when pressure or persecution comes because of the word, immediately he stumbles and falls away [abandoning the One who is the source of salvation].

In Christ Jesus God has called us to a life that is Prophetic, Effective and Productive. This life requires you to have deep spiritual roots.

Your spiritual roots are the parts of your life that no one else sees – your secret life with God. This includes your quiet time, prayers, Bible study, your church assignments, giving to work, house, a man of God and your thought and confession life.

The growth, development and longevity of plants depend on the depth and strength of their root, so if you want to fulfil your potential to the fullest, make sure you develop deep, strong and healthy roots in your relationship with God.

Don’t be a rootless Christian. Don’t be an easy pick for the devil this last days.

Pray this prayer:
Father, thank you that you call me into this intimate relationship with Jesus. Help me to put my roots down deep and to keep my eyes fixed on you. Help me to guard this relationship and never allow other things, even good things, to crowd in and choke my life.

In Jesus Name, I pray that you will do more, have more and be more this year than all the past year’s put together.

Hi, I’m Cornelius Bella. Welcome to My Corner of the Internet. I’m a Christian writer, blogger, and lifelong seeker of Biblical truth. At CorneliusBella.blog, I share reflections, revelations, and real-life stories shaped by faith, rooted in Scripture, and driven by a deep hunger for God’s presence. For me, spirituality isn’t a Sunday activity—it’s the heartbeat of everyday life. I believe God’s presence is not just a theological concept but a living, breathing reality we can experience moment by moment. One of my guiding prayers is this: “May not a single moment of my life be spent outside the light, love, and joy of God’s presence—and not a moment without the entire surrender of myself to Him.” If that resonates with you, you’re in the right place. On my blog, I write about prayer, meditation, surrender, gratitude, and the kind of faith that transforms not just what we believe, but how we live. I explore how spiritual principles can help us navigate pain, find purpose, and live with deeper joy—even in the middle of life’s uncertainties. But more than that, I write to connect. To build a community of believers who are hungry for more of God. Who want to grow, not just in knowledge, but in intimacy with the Holy Spirit. Who are tired of surface-level religion and ready to live from the inside out. So whether you’re wrestling with big questions or just looking for encouragement to keep walking by faith—I’d love for you to join the journey. Subscribe, share your thoughts, and let’s grow together in grace, truth, and the joy of God’s presence. Let’s live fully surrendered. Let’s walk by faith. Let’s seek Him—daily.
