Bear Good Fruit

“Bear Good Fruit”
(Repentence)

=======================

8 Produce fruit in keeping with repentance. And do not begin to say to yourselves, ‘We have Abraham as our father.’ For I tell you that out of these stones God can raise up children for Abraham. 9 The ax is already at the root of the trees, and every tree that does not produce good fruit will be cut down and thrown into the fire.”
(Luke 3:8-9)

=======================

There were religious people that refused to be baptized. What John is saying that you are not saved by birth but by repentence. He goes on to say that the axe is already at the root of the tree. In other words if you do not produce fruit in you lives or in your ministries then you will be burnt, just like the trees that do not produce fruit.

=======================

I will continue to remember to look to the lord always and to daily repent of my sins. I will also remember that fruit needs to be produced as thanks for what Jesus did for me. I know that by constantly following the lord and asking the holy spirit to lead me, my life will be fulfilled.

=======================

Lord almighty god. I ask you to please forgive me of my sins. I sincerely am very sorry for the wrongs that I have done. Also forgive me for hurting those that I love. I trust that the lord will guide me to a fruitful life. Lord I die to my flesh and follow you. May the holy spirit overflow in me, and I will gladly follow. Thanks God almighty.
