SPEAK    Acts 18:1-11 Devotional:- “ Now the Lord spoke to Paul in the night by a vision, 'Do not be afraid, but speak, and do not keep silent ” (V. 9) NKJV 🎙 Victory Daily Devotional SPEAK Support Us Acts 18:1-11 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com One of the major ways to make known the potential in us is by speaking. If you don’t speak, no one will know what you are up to or what you can offer. Jesus said It is from the abundance of the heart that the mouth speaks (Matthew 12:34). It is therefore important for you to know that when you are opportune to speak either to someone or a multitude, God has given you a privilege to express what is inside you. In the scripture we read today, the Lord said to Paul the apostle that he needed to keep speaking in that town to fulfil his purpose there. Speaking what?...

FRUIT BEARING

FRUIT BEARING   

John 15: 1-8
Devotional:- “By this My Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit; so you will be My disciples” (v.8) NKJV


    We can identify a disciple by the fruit he bears (Matthew 7:20). A disciple of Jesus will live, talk and behave like Jesus. This is an evidence that he is following His master. Your life is a reflection of the person you are following. Your relationship determines your life and way of life. 

  Jesus said we must be in close relationship with Him to be His disciple. The word of God said, we need to abide in Him (John 15:4). This is an intimate relationship that makes us to accurately emulate the master. Anyone cannot be in a very close relationship with Jesus and not be able to bear the same fruit with Jesus. (Proverbs 13: 20). To abide in Jesus, we have to abide in His words (John 9:31)

Please understand that, we, bearing Christian names does not make us Christian. Jesus said, by their fruits you shall know them (Matt 7: 20) These fruits are the life style of those who are following the master. They are the fruit of the spirit (Gala 5: 21) In John 15:8, Jesus said, it is only when our lives bear the fruits of the spirit, that we can be called the disciple of Jesus (John 8:31). This means, each of us can measure if we are of Christ or not. Take time to keep close relationship with the word of God and the people of God. It is then you will begin to bear the fruit of Christ. Peace. 

Prayer: Lord, make me a fruit bearing Christian. 

"YOUR FRUIT IS DETERMINED BY YOUR DEEP RELATIONSHIP"
