John chapter 15 teaches us that Yeshua is the true vine, the Father is our gardener . As we abide in the vine,..we yield to 'the life sap' the Holy Spirit, fruit becomes automatic in our lives. What we yield to we become. Have you ever noticed a apple tree try to grunt up some fruit? No,..It automatically produces apples because that is what it was created to do! Our lives produce what we are yielding too.
I am the true Vine, and my Father is the Gardener. I lop off every branch that doesn't produce. And I prune those branches that bear fruit for even larger crops. I have already tended you by pruning you back for greater usefulness by means of the commands I gave you. Take care to live in me and me live in you. For a branch can't produce fruit when severed from the Vine. Nor can you be fruitful apart from me.
THE FRUITS CLOTHE US.
-wear shoes that are able to speed you on as you preach the good news of peace with God
- the fruits of His spirit are gentleness, kindness, self-control. We take off the old man and put on the new man. We are covered over with a robe of righteousness.
-"Why do you think when there is simply a 'lull' in your reception of things – that I have left? I AM WITH YOU…I NEVER LEAVE YOU. You are the apple of My eye. I am surrounding you. I am the ever-living God, and the One that surrounds. You are not by yourself. I simply give you times of rest, during which time the 'fire' lifts for a moment then comes back again,
WE ARE THE VERY APPLE OF HIS EYE. We are guided by His eye.
QUOTE
As in the days of Moses and Joshua, you have come to the border of the promised land (SURROUNDED BY RAINBOWS). One day Moses called Joshua to an important meeting. "God has told me that my work here on earth is almost finished, Joshua, a new leader will take our people into the promised land. A new leader? Oh, No, Moses. Who could ever take your place? You Joshua!"
The aged leader climbs Mount Nebo and gazes down on the land God has promised His people--and there--alone with God---He dies.
Back in camp, Joshua prays to God for help, and the Lord answers; Be not afraid, for the Lord thy God is with thee.
The Israelites mourn thirty days for Moses. Then Joshua calls a meeting.
The campaigns ahead will be hard and dangerous. But I'll seek God's guidance in everything we do -- in every step.
My modern day Joshua's, those with the Joshua spirit will SEE what is coming as I SEE what is coming. It is as:
YOU
GET
INTO
ME
FULLY .......YOU CAN SEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE WHAT I SEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
I will be there to GUIDE you thru the dark times ahead.
May I have this dance? Take your EYES and turn your EYES fully....fully....fully upon Me and look into My face....and the things of earth will grow strangely dim in the lite of My Glory and grace. sEE what I sEE. >>>>>hERE we go...step-by-step and with each passing moment...
look
SEE
behold
I make all things NEW. There is peace in the valley as My kingdom comes into VIEW.
If I were to pass around a luscious bowl of fresh good fruit laced with a few bad apples, which fruit would you pick? The good or the bad? Likewise, as you walk down the road today, what fruit can we pick from your tree? Joy? Peace? Love? We shall know them by their fruits.
My darling bride: you are like a private garden, a spring that no one else can have, a fountain of my own. You are like a lovely orchard bearing prescious fruit. I come into my garden and eat its choicest fruits.
Rev. l4 Then an angel came from the temple and called out to him, "begin to use the sickle, for the time has come for you to reap the harvest is ripe on the earth...so the harvest was gathered in.
So, all day long today, let's eat the fruit from the tree of life. Life, life, life - abundant life. Jesus alone is the giver. Let love rule your day. For those who are spiritually barren are in danger, for I will not have an unfruitful tree in my garden.
.......will you love even as I have loved? You will have my companionship, my strength, my gentleness and forbearance. As you give away the toys of the senses, you will get the wealth of my Spirit. Love, joy, peace, patience, gentleness..........everyday with me is sweeter than the day before.
