http://highcity.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/Bearing-Fruits-Should-not-be-That-Difficult-300×300.jpg[John 15:16 KJV] “Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you.”
The will of God for everyone of His children – for everyone He has chosen – is for that person to bear fruits. Indeed many are called but few are chosen but as many as are chosen and ordained, are supposed to be fruitful and productive. You are chosen and ordained to be fruitful and productive.
There are many kinds of fruits God expects from us;
- The fruit of repentance
- The fruits of righteousness
- The fruits of our labour
- The fruits of the womb
- The fruit of the spirit
- The fruits of our lips (which is praise)
- The harvest of souls
Many are however fruitless. They are unable or incapable of producing offsprings, seeds or fruits. They are sterile, unable to support the growth of crops. Many lack stimulation or ideas.
Many are barren because of;
The sword of the wicked:
In 1 Samuel 15: 32-33, the prophet said the sword of Agag had made many women childless. Agag is a symbol of any evil power which operates in families and communities and renders women childless. Examples are abortion, accidents, war, crime, diseases, pestilence, witchcraft, and surgeries. In the name of Jesus, it is time to arise and face every Agag! We must utterly destroy Agag and restore sanity. I speak as a servant of God against every evil power plaguing you in the name of Jesus Christ!
This is the time to invade and engage your faith to confront and destroy Agag. We cannot slack, we must arise and fight with all strength and force. You must press on in warfare – the good fight of faith.
The lack of the Spirit:
Others are barren because their land is sterile. The absence of moisture and anointing make them sterile. Isaiah 32:15 teaches that untill the Spirit be poured, the land will remain sterile and a wilderness.
This is the time to crave and desire the anointing. You must press on and wait untill you are endued with power from on high. The anointing will make you fruitful in every area of your life. When the anointing comes upon you, you become fruitful. You become productive. The anointing has a multiplier effect (See Joel 2:28).
Presence of thorns and thistles:
Many people are barren and fruitless because of the presence of thorns and thistles. Examples are lust for other things, anxiety and cares of life, pride of life, deceitfulness of riches, and curses.
This requires the breaking up of your fallow grounds. Break up your fallow grounds, don’t sow among thorns! (See Jeremiah 4:3)
I love you; Stay blessed!
