Isaiah 27:6 (KJ21)
He shall cause them that come of Jacob to take root; Israel shall blossom and bud, and fill the face of the world with fruit.

Isaiah 27:6 (NAS)
In the days to come Jacob will take root, Israel will blossom and sprout; And they will fill the whole world with fruit.

Isaiah 27:6 (NIVUS)
In days to come Jacob will take root, Israel will bud and blossom and fill all the world with fruit.

Isaiah 27:6 (NLT)
The time is coming when my people will take root. Israel will bud and blossom and fill the whole earth with her fruit!

Most people want to attain to some level of success in their life-times and most people go about it in the wrong ways. They do everything they can to promote themselves. They grab onto the corporate ladder and begin to climb. Sometimes they have to climb right over someone else to get to the top and at other times they have to hold on with all of their strength while someone else climbs over them. This way to achieve success is stressful and not secure.

However, you have found the only way to enter into permanent and lasting success. You have entered into the will of the Lord for your life by drawing near to Him. When you come near to Adonai, He brings you into His house to dwell safely and securely. There you begin to take root and grow. Like Jacob, the Israel of old, you have discovered that God is the only one who always causes you to prevail. You do not have to grab onto another's heel to get ahead. You do not have to hold others back, so that you will be seen.

When you put your trust in Jehovah the Lord, you will begin to sparkle and shine. You will blossom as you begin to flourish in His presence. You will attract the peeps and glances of others; they cannot help gazing at you, for they see the glory of the Lord resting on you. You have found the way to break out of the norm and fly above your peers. You will shoot forth sprouts that will bud and bloom.

When the faces of the world turn toward you, they will see that you are full and satisfied, for you are bearing an abundance of fruit. Everything that you try to accomplish will be complete. Nothing will be left undone in your life, for the Lord has made you to be exceedingly productive. While others are in decline and are turning back, you are developing into a leader of men.
