To Bear Fruit

To Bear Fruit

Lord Jesus, You chose me and appointed me to go and bear

fruit — fruit that will last. Then the Father will give me

whatever I ask in Your name. Father, You are the Gardener. You

prune every branch that bears fruit, so it will be even more fruitful.

The Apostle Paul said to be filled with the fruit of

righteousness and that he desired that fruit might abound to our

account. Therefore, I commit myself to bring forth the fruit of the

spirit: love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,

meekness, and temperance. I renounce and turn from the fruit of

the flesh, because I belong to Christ and have crucified the flesh

with its affections and lusts.

A seed cannot bear fruit unless it first falls into the ground

and dies. I confess that I am crucified with Christ: Nevertheless I

live; yet not I, but Christ lives in me. And the life that I now live

in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, Who loved me

and gave Himself for me.

Father, I thank You that I am good ground, that I hear

Your Wo rd and understand it, and that the Word bears fruit in

my life — sometimes a hundre d f o l d , s ometimes sixty,

sometimes thirty. I am like a tree planted by the rivers of water

that brings forth fruit in its season .My leaf shall not wither, and

whatever I do shall prosper.

Father, in Jesus’ name, I thank You for filling me with the

knowledge of Your will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding

that I may walk worthy of You, Lord, being fruitful in every good

work and increasing in the knowledge of You. Amen.
