Get out of stagnant water

I passed by a corn field and seen huge puddle of water just sitting in these fields from all the rain we have got. the water is stagnant, the corn stalks are yellowing showing signs of root rot and root decay. it appears to be a damaged harvest that will produce no fruit. why ? the roots have been flooded with stagnant water.

you can relate this in a spiritual sense to Christians who are producing a damaged harvest producing bad fruit because of root decay root rot from stagnant water.
in farming and gardening when you have planted seed and the seed begins to grow often times hidden things creep in causing the leaves to turn yellow and sometimes brown, if caught and treated early you can avoid root decay and root rot, and produce a good harvest of fruit, if neglected the harvest of frui...t will be damanged, good for nothing. so in gardening when the seed planted begins to form yellow and brown leaves you have to clip off the bad leaves, the yellow and brown leaves steal water from the green fighting to live, the yellow and brown leaves hinder the plant from getting proper water nutrients and nourishment needed.

many today are in danger of root decay because things that have crept into our lives need to be clipped off, torn down before the harvest of fruit is damaged. self examination will allow you to see the hinderances that have stopped spiritual growth,those yellow and brown leaves on our fruit tree hindering growth and harvest of good fruit could be a number of things, such as grudges bitterness, jealousy , pride, arrogance , selfrighteousness, lust, depression, stress worry fear doubt, unforgiveness etc.. you get the picture, those things cannot be hanging around on our fruit tree in the garden of our hearts, it will destroy good fruit and cause root decay in our root system.
