Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself unless it abides in the vine, so neither can you unless you abide in Me.
John 15:4 NASB

Lord, let us meditate on your word. Fill us with your spirit, so we may walk in those truths. Help us Lord, so we don’t become “White Noise”, to a lost and dying world. Our talk and our walk must not be different. Though we walk in these sinful bodies, may you change our hearts as well as those around us. Amen
If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but do not have love, I have become a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal.
1 Corinthians 13:1 NASB
May our light shine today, that we may warn of danger ahead, but point the way to safety, through Jesus, just as a lighthouse is used to save Jesus. Amen. Please share your stories of how God used you for this today!
“You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden; nor does anyone light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on the lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house. Let your light shine before men in such a way that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven.
Matthew 5:14-16 NASB
The fear, leads to devotion, by understanding God’s grace, which fills us with his spirit, through prayer and his word, which produces the works that come forth from us. It truly is Amazing!
So then, my beloved, just as you have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your salvation with fear and trembling;
Philippians 2:12 NASB
Is this not a beautiful picture, of what the church is supposed to be? Yesterday I said, Love covers a multitude of sins. Let us show Grace, as Grace has been fully given to us. May our hearts be forever changed by Jesus.
Bear one another’s burdens, and thereby fulfill the law of Christ.
Galatians 6:2 NASB
Let’s not isolate ourselves! It is not only lonely, but God says, it is better with two people. Help us Lord, to remember that in our marriage, and in our friendships as well. Both, are great biblical principles.
Two are better than one because they have a good return for their labor. For if either of them falls, the one will lift up his companion. But woe to the one who falls when there is not another to lift him up.
Ecclesiastes 4:9-10 NASB
Are you bearing fruit or are you not? Are you a Christian, or are you just giving lip service that will not be acceptable?
If there is no fruit, you will be taken away. That is not a place you want to be. Pray that the Lord would help you fully see that you might produce fruit. If you are bearing fruit (true believers), the sin in your life will be pruned away, that you may produce more fruit! How great for those who believe, to have God help us, throw off the sins that hold us back. This is a process, that does not happen over night. May we hand over to God, those sins, so that we might not have to go through the painful process of pruning as much. Let us hope for and wait, for that day when we are called home, to be fully complete, lacking in nothing!
Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit, He takes away; and every branch that bears fruit, He prunes it so that it may bear more fruit.
John 15:2 NASB
The sinfull desires remain, but as believers, they are not seen by Christ. As we walk by faith, in the spirit, we have freedom. The battle will rage on, until finally, we will receive our glorified bodies after we have left these earthly bodies, when the Lord calls us home. Daily reminding ourselves of this amazing grave we have received, changes us and helps us walk in the spirit. Can I get an Amen?
Now those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.
Galatians 5:24 NASB
Please………you must act! This is not an intellectual exercise. The time is now to follow Jesus, if you have not! All of eternity is at stake, for you. Ask the Lord to open you eyes to his truths.
Many things are wrong in this world, but everything good, is from God.
Every good thing given and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shifting shadow.
James 1:17 NASB
