WE’RE IN THE “MUCH FRUIT” CLASS
I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and
I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me
ye can do nothing (John 15:5).
The Lord Jesus is the Vine and we’re the
branches. That means we’re of the same stalk.
The same life that’s in the Vine flows through the
branches and as a result, we’re ordained to a fruitful
and productive life. Not only is the Lord interested in
you bearing fruits, He also wants you to bear lasting
fruits: “Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen
you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring
forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain…” (John
15:16).
Remember, He said every branch in the Vine
that’s unfruitful is taken away, but every branch that
bears fruit is purged and pruned to bear more fruit
(John 15:2). He continually works in you so you can
keep bearing fruit; we belong in the “much fruit” class.
If you’re bringing forth fewer fruits, it’s because you
chose to. You have the ability to bring forth much
fruits; He chose and ordained you for that: read our
opening scripture again.
God has programmed you, consecrated and
anointed you to bring forth fruits, which means there’s
no room for failure in your life. Everything you do
prospers; anything you’re involved in grows; you’re
productive in all seasons. Psalm 1:3 puts it clearly:
you’re like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that
brings forth fruit in season; your leaf also never withers,
and whatsoever you do, prospers.
CONFESSION
I’m fruitful and productive because Christ is in me,
and I’m in Him; we’re of the same stalk. Everything
I do prospers, and I’m making progress from glory
to glory, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
