THE FRUITFUL BELIEVER

God bless you for taking the time to study.

TOPIC:  THE FRUITFUL BELIEVER 

THURSDAY JUNE 8TH

TEXT: JOHN 15:1-16
KEY VERSE: “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”. (John 15:16).
Every believer in Christ is expected to bear fruit. Fruit bearing is a distinguishing feature between the living and dead branches of a tree. Through His enriching Word, God bestows sufficient grace to make His children fruitful. If you are digesting the word of God and you open your heart to understanding, you will be increasingly fruitful. The fruit of the Spirit will be clearly seen in you in an increasing measure as you move on in life. 
“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 to you.” (John 15:16).
To be in church all these while and remain the same shows you are not interested in the grace God gives to all that come to Him. It means you have willingly submitted your life to the control of sin and Satan.  
God expects believers not only to bear fruit of righteousness and holiness but also to go and evangelize and bring sinners to repentance. Soul-winning is the principal duty of every believer. This is the Great Commission to which every believer has been called by Jesus. It is dangerous not to win souls to Christ because that would be disobedience to His command.
Look up to Jesus for His enablement for without Christ we can do nothing. But with Christ, we can do all things. May the Lord Jesus Christ bestow His grace on you so that you may serve Him and win souls for Him. Amen.

Thought for the day: Ask for grace to be fruitful.

Song for the day: Go and tell them that Jesus died for the sinful world. 

Bible reading for the day: 2 Chronicles 26-28; John 17

For taking your time to study remain blessed. August Tuesday 27th TOPIC: CORRECT WATER BAPTISM TEXT: Mark 16:15-16 KEY VERSE: Matthew 28:19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. The believer requires water baptism. The baptism that Jesus commanded is in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. It is done by immersion in water because the three Persons are One. In Acts of the Apostles, the people were baptizing in the name of Jesus. They used the phrase “in the name of Jesus” to indicate that the baptism was carried out as authorized by Jesus, and the baptism authorized by Jesus is that which is done in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. It is not to say that they dip people in water and say, “I baptize you in the name of Jesus.” The name of Jesus cannot represent the Godhead. The Father is not Jesus, the Holy Spirit is not Jesus, Jesus is God who be
