Psalms 92:12-13
92:12 The godly grow like a palm tree;
they grow high like a cedar in Lebanon.
92:13 Planted in the Lord’s house,
they grow in the courts of our God.
Isaiah 27:6
27:6 The time is coming when Jacob will take root;
Israel will blossom and grow branches.
The produce will fill the surface of the world.
John 12:24
12:24 I tell you the solemn truth,
unless a kernel of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it remains by itself alone.
But if it dies, it produces
much grain.
John 15:5-8
15:5 “I am the vine; you are the branches. The one who remains in me – and I in him – bears much fruit, because apart from me you can accomplish nothing.
15:6 If anyone does not remain in me, he is thrown out like a branch, and dries up; and such branches are gathered up and thrown into the fire, and are burned up.
15:7 If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you want, and it will be done for you.
15:8 My Father is honored by this, that you bear much fruit and show that you are my disciples.
