Psalm 1:1-2,3,4 and 6
Blessed is the man
who walks not in the counsel of the wicked,
nor stands in the way of sinners,
nor sits in the seat of scoffers
But his delight is in the law of the Lord,
and on his law he meditates day and night.
3 He is like a tree
planted by streams of water
that yields its fruit in its season,
and its leaf does not wither.
In all that he does, he prospers.
4 The wicked are not so,
but are like chaff that the wind drives away.
For the Lord knows the way of the righteous,
but the way of the wicked will perish.
Critics of God say the New Testament was written in 400 A.D. because the Disciples were illiterate. Which is to say, Critics have not read the Bible. Paul was educated by Gamaliel. Peter had ideas of God about a day of the Lord is equal to thousands. It wasn't a perfect criticism. The other criticism is like unto It. The miracles of Jesus and the 400 or more prophetic aspects of Jesus' life merely write down the Old Testament. Flaw:
Deuteronomy 21
22 If a man has committed a sin worthy of death, and he is executed, and you hang his body on a tree, 23 you must not leave the body on the tree overnight, but you must be sure to bury him that day, because anyone who is hung on a tree is under God’s curse.
Given Deuteronomy is the Pentateuch of Moses, we can't disregard this in Prophetic Skills. Jesus could have been killed by the Temple Guard the first time the Temple Guard was sent to destroy Jesus. Or thrown from the cliffs of Nazareth. Instead, Jesus has broken with Prophecy.
And with grand style, Jesus has thrown out not mentioning a tree. John 1 begins with Jesus hearing Nathaniel's prayer under a tree, before Nathaniel knew of Jesus that day. Nathaniel is the third person in the First Chapter of John 1 to declare Jesus is the Messiah of God. Even Peter's brother Andrew tells Peter the first day they meet Jesus.
John 1 begins with the Blessing of God hearing Prayer under a Tree.
And an implication of the beginning of the Discussion of Heaven, has ties with the end of Jesus' life on earth. Jesus is joyful from beginning to John 21.
Nathaniel begins under a tree praying and that day, Nathaniel meets Jesus Christ, Messiah of God.
Matthew 13
31 He put another parable before them, saying, “The kingdom of heaven is like a grain of mustard seed that a man took and sowed in his field. 32 It is the smallest of all seeds, but when it has grown it is larger than all the garden plants and becomes a tree,
so that the birds of the air come
and make nests in its branches.”
Jesus mentions the type of tree. Mustard. We don't know the tree as time has passed. Jesus knew the tree. Mustard, properties include: block microbial growth. ... promote skin and hair health. ... Alleviate pain. ... Slow cancer cell growth. ...
support heart health. ...
reduces inflammation. ... help treat cold symptoms.
Jesus tells us not to be too quick to take Heaven, without the fruit.
Mark 11:12-20
On the following day, when they came from Bethany, he was hungry. 13 And seeing in the distance a fig tree in leaf, he went to see if he could find anything on it. When he came to it, he found nothing but leaves, for it was not the season for figs. 14 And he said to it, “May no one ever eat fruit from you again.” And his disciples heard it.
15 And they came to Jerusalem. And he entered the temple and began to drive out those who sold and those who bought in the temple, and he overturned the tables of the money-changers and the seats of those who sold pigeons. 16 And he would not allow anyone to carry anything through the temple. 17 And he was teaching them and saying to them, “Is it not written, ‘My house shall be called a house of prayer for all the nations’? But you have made it a den of robbers.” 18 And the chief priests and the scribes heard it and were seeking a way to destroy him, for they feared him, because all the crowd was astonished at his teaching. 19 And when evening came they went out of the city.
20 As they passed by in the morning, they saw the fig tree withered away to its roots.
Peter understood what needed to developed. He wrote 8 Chapters.
1 Peter 2:24
"He himself bore our sins" in his body on the cross so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; "by his wounds you have been healed."
Peter let Mark tell of the Miracles of Jesus. Peter was dealing with moving beyond the boundary of Salvation and deep into the Joy of Jesus as his Strength.
Paul would proclaim the Life Jesus is bringing us into eternity. Zacchaeus, Luke 19, Jesus knows us and knows our family - This is our hope to find in our gatherings on Easter:
Abba, Father,
We ask in the Highest Name of Jesus,
Dwell in us
and Dwell in those we love.
Help us to seek You first.
In Jesus Christ, we will finish well.
Ephesians 3
11 This was according to the eternal purpose that he has realized in Christ Jesus,
our Lord,
12 in whom we have boldness and access with confidence through our faith in him.
13 So I ask you not to lose heart over what I am suffering for you, which is your glory.
14 For this reason I bow my knees before the Father, 15 from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named, 16 that according to the riches of his glory he may grant you to be strengthened with power through his Spirit in your inner being
17 so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith—that you, being rooted and grounded in love,
18 may have strength to comprehend with all the saints
what is the breadth and length and height and depth,
19 and to know the love of Christ that surpasses knowledge,
that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.
20 Now to him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the power at work within us, 21 to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever. Amen.

Matthew 13:31,3
Jesus put before them another parable: “The Kingdom of Heaven
is like a mustard seed that a man planted in his field.
Although it is the smallest of all seeds,
yet it grows into the largest of garden plants and becomes a tree,
so that the birds of the air come
and
nest in its branches.”
