Seed Power
John 12:24 “I assure you, most solemnly I tell you, Unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains [just one grain; it never becomes more but lives] by itself alone. But if it dies, it produces many others and yields a rich harvest.” (AMPC)

Implications
Acts 15:16 “After these things I will return, And I will rebuild the tent of David which has fallen; I will rebuild its ruins, And I will restore it.” (AMP).

Add, Not Subtract
Isaiah 54:2 “Enlarge the place of your tent, stretch your tent curtains wide, do not hold back; lengthen your cords, strengthen your stakes.” (NIV, emphasis added)

Safe Place
Psalm 46:1-3 “God is our refuge and strength, always ready to help in times of trouble. So we will not fear when earthquakes come and the mountains crumble into the sea. Let the oceans roar and foam. Let the mountains tremble as the waters surge!” (emphasis added).
The presence of God is a formidable source of strength. The Voice Translation puts Psalm 46:1-3 this way, “God is our shelter and our strength. When troubles seem near, God is nearer, and He’s ready to help.
