God is looking for fruits in your life!

Good day, dear friends! I praise God for another opportunity to share the wisdom from God with you. As we discussed earlier, everything God does in your life, He does for the sole purpose, namely, to make us bear good fruits that would reflect His nature, wisdom and strength. We glorify His Name by bearing the good fruits. Bearing no fruits and leaving everything God has granted us with intact we will lose everything. When such thing happens, the anointment of the Holy Spirit disappears then such person begins to rely only on his own strength; as a result he lives in his weakness instead of living in the power of God, foolishness replaces wisdom in his life while the safe ground turns into vulnerability. So, God is looking for fruits in your life! Many of you are already bearing fruits for the Kingdom of Heaven. You are looking at your life and say: “Thanks God, I am bearing fruits that I even can demonstrate to other people.” That’s all right, but Jesus told us about another level where you can multiply your fruits even more. Maybe you are bearing fruits that are changing your life and people around you can testify about these things happen. Perhaps, many people who know what kind of person you were earlier now can notice drastic, positive changes in your life since you have turned to God. Probably, certain qualities of your character have changed or you speak different to the way you used to in the past. Maybe you think or act different way. You might have even come closer to God than ever before. You may have fruits of saved souls – people who repented because of the fellowship with you and because they noticed changes in your life. Regardless of all these things Jesus says you may bear even more fruits. In what way you might ask! More means more than you already bear today. We must have exactly this kind of desire. We have to aspire towards this – to bear fruits. Self-satisfaction is one of main enemies than becomes an obstacle to fruitful life. A person is self-satisfied when he or she is happy with what has been achieved in his or her life. When person is happy with what has already been achieved he stops moving forward. Sometimes, your success or achievements become a most difficult problem or even a danger in your life. It becomes more difficult to move forward when we begin installing monuments to our achievements. God wants us not to watch our achievements nor stop at it. He doesn’t want us to retire nor to take a holiday, instead His desire for us is to constantly move forward, bearing more and more fruits. Besides, we are capable of doing that, because we are in Christ Jesus. Pronounce the following words if you desire to bear many fruits for God in your life. 
«Lord, I desire to bear more fruits in my life. I am asking You to cleanse me, so that I become capable of bearing more fruits. I accept God’s grace to stay on the vine tree. I shall bear much fruits for God in Jesus Name!»
 The Bible says we should grow until we reach perfection in Christ (see Ephesians, Chapter 4). Therefore, it doesn’t matter how anointed and fruitful you are now, there is a higher level prepared for you by God – the higher level of effectiveness and fertility. Apostle Paul says: 
«Not that I have already obtained, or am already made perfect; but I press on, if it is so that I may take hold of that for which also I was taken hold of by Christ Jesus. Brothers, I don’t regard myself as yet having taken hold, but one thing I do. Forgetting the things which are behind, and stretching forward to the things which are before, I press on toward the goal for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus». (Philippians 3:12-14).
 Having had the desire to have more than he already possessed, Paul was constantly moving forward. If some people had achieved the level of fertility Paul had, they would rather install a huge monument to themselves and would be doing nothing until the second coming of Christ. Meanwhile, Paul walked in Spirit and enjoyed special power from God. He was a fruitful apostle of Jesus Christ. Paul had significant spiritual achievements, nevertheless, he never considered himself as made perfect. He had a desire to constantly grow and bear more fruits for God. You can learn these things from apostle Paul. Never stop stretching forward but grow up and bear fruits for God! Let’s continue tomorrow!God bless each of you and each of your relatives!Rufus Adjiboje, pastor

    Hope is one of the greatest words of the Christian faith. It is one word the unsaved man cannot use, because there is no hope for the unsaved according to the Bible (Ep.2: 11-13).

  • The Bible calls us to ALWAYS PRAY AND NOT LOSE HEART

    The whole world lies in wickedness and darkness, but, looking at the people that have made prayer their priority #1, you realize that – so to speak – they are from another planet; they do not live in darkness because they seem shining. They have problems and their life is not any different, but they approach their problems in a different way and they look forward into the future in a different way. Prayer so alters their lives and strengthens their relationships with God that they do not notice things that others do.

When one has such attitude towards life he will have his or her reward from the Lord. Such a person will be blessed and exalted by God. His or her gift will make room for him or her in God’s overall picture and the Body of Christ.Person’s gift will make room for him and will bring him before great men, – this is on of the Bible principles; the Bible teaches about it and also it can be seen in the lives of the people in the Bible.

    The lordship of Jesus Christ is what helps us to walk free from the accusations of Satan; with it in our lives, the blood of Jesus Christ works on our behalf. Our accuser is not the only voice before God; our Advocate and Intercessor Jesus Christ is also there defending us.

But if you will listen to your Intercessor Jesus Christ, then you will walk in repentance and the blood of Jesus Christ will cleanse you.
