The Lord has desired to have a people of His planting since before the Garden of Eden. In this dispensation He desires to plant His children in the House of His choosing. He wants them firmly established in the House of God, the local church of His calling.
Exodus 15:17 Thou shalt bring them in, and plant them in the mountain of thine inheritance, in the place, O Lord, which thou hast made for thee to dwell in, in the Sanctuary, O Lord, which thy hands have established.
Many precious children of God are missing the blessing of belonging to a local church (Sanctuary) which God has established because of their own unwillingness to yield to His way of nurturing, developing, strengthening and maturing those who belong to His family.
Even full time ministers need a place that they can call home; a place where God has planted them for their nurturing and care. Traveling ministers need a home more than any other saint, if that be possible. It is for mutual protection and carries a promise of fruitfulness and prosperity.
2 Samuel 7:10 Moreover I will appoint a place for my people Israel, and will plant them, that they may dwell in a place of their own, and move no more; neither shall the children of wickedness afflict them any more,... [1Chron. 17:9]
Psalm 92:13 Those that be planted in the house of the Lord shall flourish in the courts of our God.
