Proverbs 12:3, “A man shall not be established by wickedness: but the root of the righteous shall not be moved.”

The Christian is so grounded, so safe and secure in Christ that he can never be removed from the foundation. He is “rooted and built up” in Christ, and “stablished in the faith”, as he has been taught, (Colossians 2:7). Above the solid ground the branches of the saint may be tossed and turned through trials. Their leaves may be scorched and wither through the scorching fires of affliction and persecution. Their bark may be cut by the temptations of Satan but they are rooted in Christ, and that root is safe from the rage of hell as well as of earth. For it is written (Psalm 125:1-2), “They that trust in the LORD shall be as mount Zion, which cannot be removed, but abideth for ever. As the mountains are round about Jerusalem, so the LORD is round about his people from henceforth even for ever.”

As John Gill (1697-1771) so well put it; “Saints can never be removed from the Lord, though they may be removed from his house and ordinances, as sometimes David was; and from his gracious presence, and sensible communion with him; and out of the world by death: yet never from his heart's love, nor out of the covenant of his grace, which is sure and everlasting; nor out of his family, into which they are taken; nor from the Lord Jesus Christ, nor out of his hands and arms, nor from off his heart; nor from off him, as the foundation on which they are laid; nor out of a state of grace, either regeneration or justification; but such abide in the love of God, in the covenant of his grace, in the hands of his Son, in the grace wherein they stand, and in the house of God for evermore.”
