John 15:1-2

John 15:1 I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman. (KJV)
 
Our Lord lived a life of obedience to His heavenly Father and demonstrated not only in talk, but more importantly in walk. Something we see lacking are those that let their walk do the talking for them. That’s the difference between the worldly preachers and those that are truly a part of the vine.
 
Psalm 1:1-3 Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.  2 But his delight is
in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night. 3 And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper. (KJV)
 
At sometime in your walk you will experience the Lord asking you to take a close look at the company that you keep. Evil communications does corrupt your good morals intentions; and you will find that some of the friendly fire that you take on will take place in religious organizations. So in order for you to stay in the blessed column and continue to be rooted and grounded in the truth, you may find it’s time to put away childish things which can come in the form of man’s childish religious doctrines, and move on in order to please our Lord.
 
Jeremiah 17:7-8 Blessed is the man that trusteth in the LORD, and whose hope the LORD is. 8 For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, and that spreadeth out her roots by the river, and shall not see when heat cometh, but her leaf shall be green; and shall not be careful in the year of drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit. (KJV)
 
Our Lord’s desire is to see His people planted near the river of life so that they can drink the pureness of it.  He does not want to see His people drinking the polluted watered down doctrines of man that will not bring life; and as you see illustrated in the verse above, our  Lord desires for us to be instant in season and out of season, not fickle like mankind who limits Christianity to just Sunday morning services.
 
Ezekial 47:12 And by the river upon the bank thereof, on this side and on that side, shall grow all trees for meat, whose leaf shall not fade, neither shall the fruit thereof be consumed: it shall bring forth new fruit according to his months, because their waters they issued out of the sanctuary: and the fruit thereof shall be for meat, and the leaf thereof for medicine. (KJV)
 
We have been grafted into the tree of life so that we can bear the fruit of the Spirit. When the Lord comes your way today, will He find any fresh fruit growing in you?
 
God bless dearly loved, and have a very prosperous day in Christ Jesus our Lord.
