Good Morning Sunday…
Dear FATHER GOD, we believe we exist only because of You and we want to THANK YOU FOR THE GIFT OF LIFE. It isn’t always the way we think it should be, but Life is amazing and it all comes from You. YOU HAVE BLESSED US WITH wonderful people and things in our lives, particularly YOUR SON AND YOUR SALVATION. We are eternally grateful for everything You’ve provided for us. WITH much THANKSGIVING from Your Sons and Daughters WE PRAY IN THE MIGHTY NAME OF YOUR SALVATION AND OUR MESSIAH YESHUA, JESUS CHRIST. Amen! - Abide, Be Pruned, And Be More Fruitful We can all be fruitful, BUT... not every part of our branch produces fruit. What happens to the part of our branch that does not produce good fruit, the dead parts? Well, The Bible tells us that that Our Father prunes them. Let's take a look: “I am The True Vine, and My Father is The Vinedresser. Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit He takes away; and every branch that bears fruit He prunes, that it may bear more fruit.” John 15:1-2 So Our Father takes away every branch that does not produce fruit, but look at what he says next: "every branch that bears fruit He prunes, that it may bear more fruit." Now that is pretty exciting. This means that if we are producing fruit in our lives, but still have things not helping us or holding back from producing more fruit...He will prune us to be more fruitful! Anger, lust, divisiveness, depression, worry, vain ambitions, unforgiveness, and things of this sort in our lives should be, and can be, cut away from us by Our Father In Heaven. All we have to do is "remain in Yeshua" and produce good fruit! We all have some diseased leaves on our branch whether we would like to admit it or not. The key is to abide in Christ The King and make our best effort to produce good fruit for, not just ourselves, but firstly for Our Father and Savior, then our families, friends, co-workers, and all those around us. Producing fruit is the same as "Being A Light." If we do this, Our Father Is Faithful to cut the bad parts of our lives off. Then we can bear more fruit. Remember, we cannot produce good fruit without Him. Let's take a look: “Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in The Vine, neither can you, unless you abide in Me. “I Am The Vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing.” John 15:4-5 There we have it. Abide in The King. Remain in Yeshua, Jesus Christ Our Savior, produce good fruit, which we must remain in Him to do, and Our Kind and Loving Father will prune the dead things in our lives. Again, then we can produce more fruit. No one wants a fruitless tree in their yard, but when it produces sweet, juicy fruit, The Owner (Vinedresser), Our Heavenly Father, Is Happy. May we all strive to make God Our Father, The Vinedresser, and Our King, Yeshua, Jesus Christ, The True Vine, happy by producing good fruit. As we do this, may we all allow Our God And King to cut away from us those things that are not worthy of His Kingdom. These things we ask you God Our Father in The Name Above All Names, Yeshua, Jesus Christ Our King. Amen. Extra Fuel For The Soul: “If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you. By this My Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit; so you will be My disciples. “As the Father loved Me, I also have loved you; abide in My Love. If you keep My Commandments, you will abide in My Love, just as I have kept My Father’s Commandments and abide in His Love. “These things I have spoken to you, that My Joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be full. This is My Commandment, that you Love one another as I have loved you.” John 15:7-12 “Lead me in Your Truth and teach me, For You are The God of My Salvation; On You I wait all the day. Remember, O LORD (YHWH, Yahweh), Your tender mercies and Your lovingkindnesses, For they are from of old. Do not remember the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions; According to Your mercy remember me, For Your goodness’ sake, O LORD (YHWH, Yahweh).” Psalms 25:5-7 “But He, because He continues forever, has an unchangeable priesthood. Therefore He is also able to save to the uttermost those who come to God through Him, since He always lives to make intercession for them. For such a High Priest was fitting for us, who is Holy, Harmless, Undefiled, Separate from sinners, and has become Higher Than The Heavens; who does not need daily, as those high priests, to offer up sacrifices, first for His own sins and then for the people’s, for this He did once for all when He offered up Himself.” Hebrews 7:24-27 “And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart. Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all, especially to those who are of the household of faith.” Galatians 6:9-10 “You will know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes from thornbushes or figs from thistles? Even so, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. Therefore by their fruits you will know them.” Matthew 7:16-17, 20 Please leave any questions, comments, insights, Biblical Nuggets, encouragement, or thoughts in the comments below.
