"Then said he unto the dresser of his vineyard, Behold, these three years I come seeking fruit on this fig tree, and find none: cut it down; why cumbereth it the ground? 7) Then said he unto the dresser of his vineyard, Behold, these three years I come seeking fruit on this fig tree, and find none: cut it down; why cumbereth it the ground? 8 )And he answering said unto him, Lord, let it alone this year also, till I shall dig about it, and dung it 9) And if it bear fruit, well: and if not, then after that thou shalt cut it down. Luke 13:6-9
The number 3 is prophetic in it's symbolizing Resurrection, and it operates as a "sign-post" in Scripture study for the reader to "pay attention" to the significance of the next event.
So pay attention!
Things may seen unproductive, they may seem hopeless or as nothing in your eyes, but do not despise the day of small beginnings. What seems dead right now, that God spoke or destined in your life, just dig around it (remove the dry unhealthy dirt, break up the hard places) and put some dung( fairh, fertilizer, Prayer, remind yourself again of what God said) on it, and watch it produce! Sometimes we just need a new perspective, so with that being said, "Give it one more chance!"
Prayer:
Father God in the name of Jesus, give me clarity of vision that I see again what you spoke concerning me. That I stand still and see you do a marvelous work by working my faith and producing patience in my life. I trust you and believe your word, and I am waiting to see what's going to happen next. AMEN!
