“Is your fruit from the Vine growing ??”
I am the vine, ye are the branches. He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit, for without Me, ye can do nothing. John 15:5
On April 12, 1987, our then Pastor, Bro. Mark Stovall preached a message out of this passage at Fellowship Baptist Church. The Lord used Bro. Mark in a mighty way that morning to speak to me. Bro. Mark showed us how there are degrees of fruitfulness. There is fruit, more fruit and much fruit. All Christians will bring forth some fruit. Your degree of fruitfulness is directly related to your attachment to the Vine. But here is the meat of that message: Without Christ, we can accomplish nothing worthwhile.
I pray you are producing at least SOME FRUIT. As you grow in the Lord, that amount should rise to MORE FRUIT, and ultimately, to MUCH FRUIT. May God bless the fruitfulness of HIS people, and help us to know and understand, without HIM, we can do nothing.
