I Am A Branch

Friday is here! It has been an awesome week! There is no such thing as a do-nothing real Christian. The life that springs forth from within us forces itself out in holy words and actions. We will not only bear fruit but we will bear much fruit and good fruit. We must be in Christ in order to bear such wonderful fruits. If we are not in Him we lose our life, wither away, die, and are of no use but to be cast out. Those branches are gathered up and burned. Those that are in Him have His words abiding in them. His word molds us, controls our lives, and forms our character. Being in Him gives us the opportunity to ask for things according to the will of God and He will grant what we ask.  It is impossible for Christians who are in vital union with Christ to be fruitless. There is no room except for success in this situation. Take full advantage of such a blessing of success in Christ. Work doing the will of God.  Work as Christ worked. Work giving your all, all the time. What does it mean if a Christian is not working and bearing fruit?

 “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.  If anyone does not abide in Me, he is cast out as a branch and is withered; and they gather them and throw them into the fire, and they are burned.  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.” John 15:5-8

Glorify God in your fruit bearing today! Seek to save lost souls. Do the work of a child of God. Keep working hard :)

Gal. 1:3-5

In The Name Of

Everything that we do must be in the name of Jesus. The phrase “in the name of” identifies by whose authority. Everything we do we must do in and by the authority of Christ. We cannot quit because Christ is with us. Jesus made it clear if we do His commands He is with us tell the end of the age. We must work and operate within His authority and by His authority.   Success outside of this parameter is not godly success but worldly achievement. Therefore, it is nothing more than sin. In order to never quit and have an attitude of success only we must remain in Christ authority. The right growth, maturity, success rate, and prize in only found in Christ. Everything else is only an illusion of what could be.   Keep working in the name of Jesus. ““Repent, and let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; ”” Acts 2:38 “And whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through...

The Effects

Make sure you are taking into account eternity with every choice you make about fun and pleasure. We will all be held accountable. As a family, we want to cultivate an environment that continually produces good wholesome fun. “For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that each one may receive the things done in the body, according to what he has done, whether good or bad.” 1 Corinthians 5:10 NKJV

With Spirit

     We are to worship God in spirit and truth. Truth being His word. Our spirit is what makes us up. Our spirit is all that we have. Who cares what that sounds like or what our best may amount to, to the ears and eyes of the world. God asked for all of us. Lip service will not suffice. Man-made concepts will cause our worship to come up short in God’s eyes. Be mindful of this. Give Him all you have. Hypocrites! Well did Isaiah prophesy about you, saying:   ‘These people draw near to Me with their mouth, And honor Me with their lips, But their heart is far from Me. And in vain they worship Me, Teaching as doctrines the commandments of men.’ ” Matthew 15:7-9 NKJV
