THE FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT FRIDAY APRIL 21 Text: Galatians 5: 22-26 Key Verse: “Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it bring forth more fruit” John 15:2 The Holy Spirit produces the spiritual virtues of love, joy, peace, faith, goodness, meekness, gentleness, patience and self control in the life of the holy Christian. These virtues are collectively called the fruit of the Spirit to make his light shine before men in righteousness and holiness so that they may glorify God for his life. The spiritual virtues contained within this fruit of the Spirit are described as: 1. Love: shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Spirit, for God and for our fellow men 2. Joy: flows in the believer’s heart as a sign of true salvation, Psalm 51:12 3. Peace: proves that we are God’s Children, Mathew 5:9 4. Long suffering: makes the child of God to bear long with God and with men in times of trials 5. Gentleness: makes the Christian to love and relate peacefully with his fellow men 6. Goodness: God’s goodness manifested in the believer. Hebrews 12:14. 7. Faith: keeps us in constant connection with God, Hebrews 11:6. 8. Meekness: Blessed are the meek for they shall inherit the earth 9. Temperance: keeps the believers from the sins of appetite and worldly cares. If we live and walk in the Spirit we will bear the fruit of the Spirit and will not fulfill the desires of the flesh. Good fruits are always displayed for people to buy and eat. Jesus said that believers are the light of the World, and that we should let our light shine before men, that they may see our good works and glorify God because of us, and be challenged to draw closer to the Lord. As it is natural for good and living tree to bear good fruits, so it is for every Spirit filled Christian to bring forth godly fruits. Any person who has not the Holy Spirit in him is not of Christ and cannot bear the fruit of the Spirit. Thought for the day: Against such there is no law Song for the day: Make me Holy, make me Holy, make me Holy o Lord ….. Bible reading for the day: 2 Samuel 1-3; Luke 18:1-17 #horemow.

THE LORD IS REMOVING UNCIRCUMCISED LEADERS

REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD. THURSDAY 30 DECEMBER THE LORD IS REMOVING UNCIRCUMCISED LEADERS TEXT: NUMBERS 14: 26-31  Key verse: Matthew 20:16 So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many  be called, but few chosen. Completion of the angelic message: The Lord continued. “Because of this mandate given to you, I am removing around you the uncircumcised leaders. I am going to fill their place with righteous and holy leaders from various nations and races.” Truly I had pondered if any minister has suffered like this. People I loved, cherished and lived peacefully with suddenly began to speak evil against me to my shock. Well, it happens in politics, but is limited to their countries, whereas mine is international! Yes, some ministers may have suffered these things, but that was before the advent of the Internet, so their sufferings were limited. Maybe through letters or newspapers for a limited time, but my own is in the world of the I...
