John
15:4
“Abide
in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot beareth fruit of itself, it abide in
the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me.”
If
you stay with the lord he will stay with you. It is like the branch; no branch
can bear fruit of itself, but it is from the vine. You can’t have the fruits
unless you have the lord. If you don’t have the lord in your life, and don’t
live the right ways before the lord, you can bear the fruit of the spirit.
Now,
what is the fruit of the spirit?
Galatians
5:22-23-
“But
the fruit of the spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness,
goodness, faith, meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.”
For
you to obtain these fruits you have to abide in the Lord. There is no
substitute or cutting corners to achieve this. If you love the world, the love
of the father is not in you. If you hate your brother, the love of the father
is not in you. So stay close with the lord, live the life that you are suppose
to live with the lord, and what could make him happy. Follow his commandments,
and follow his path that he wants to lead you in. I guarantee that you will
succeed and prosper in walking with the lord.
John
15:7
“If
ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it
shall be done unto you.”
If
you follow God’s words and continue his works and the path that he wants to
lead you, then whatever you ask of in his name it will be done. It is like
school: If you being the student do all of your homework right, and what the
teacher expects of you, then you will be rewarded. God is the teacher, and you
are the student, and if you abide by the rules, and stick to the tasks that are
given to you, then when the time comes for a favor or a question, you will get
what you are asking for.
Also
when you are in battle, who are you going to have on your side? Hopefully, you
will have God. Because God, can fight your battles, there is no competition
when being with God on your side, and is fighting the big fight. Any decisions
or complications that come our way, we ask of him and he will lead you on your
way. This all pertains to living the right way with him, and being rewarded for
it.
Matthew
7:7
“Ask,
and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be
opened unto you:”
Ask
for anything in his name and it will be done. God knows what is in your heart,
and when you ask of him, he will make a way for things to go the way that you
need them to, and more. For example: Praying for financial dues, you need to
pay your bills, and you ask the lord, to help you have enough money to pay up
for it. Well, if you have the fruits of the spirit, and is living by the truth,
and the way that you are supposed to go, then he will pay off those expenses,
also on top of that he might provide double or triple, of what you need, so
that you have the payments paid for a couple months ahead. It has happened!
Praise the lord!
This
is what the lord can provide all we have to do is abide in him. Stay close to
his word, and pray earnestly, and things that look so far ahead, may be closer
than you think, through the lord.
