Write any phrases from the selected Bible verses that speak to you?
Close your eyes and envision any kind of fruit tree that is ready for harvest. This fruit has reached this point due to all the previous concepts we have looked at this week: seed, soil, roots, watering, growth, and pruning. Likewise, we bear spiritual fruit due to God word’s and His Spirit continuously at work in our lives.
In what ways is the fruit of the Spirit (love, joy, peace, etc) flourishing in your daily interactions with people?
Is the Lord using you to bear fruit for His name in any particular ministry or people group?
Write a prayer using the above verses as a reference:
But the Lord is faithful. He will establish you and guard you against the evil one. 2 Thessalonians 3:3
Dear Lord,
You are faithful! You hear every cry of our heart. Please hold our hands and keep us on your path. Help us to be faithful to you and protect us from the evil one. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
