Inspecting Your Fruit
Tuesday, December 17, 2024
Bananas, Pineapples, & Nuts
I'm a novice when it comes to the fruit and produce section at the supermarket. So I eye the fruit, hold it up, move it around, apply the pressure, throw it back. I haven't the slightest idea what I'm doing, but it looks professional. But as believers, we have to learn to be good at fruit inspection. In the Lord, fruit is very important. In fact, it's essential. In Galatians, we're told that the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. These are to be the primary fruits that are to come out of your life; not anger, bitterness, selfishness, impurity, jealousy, lust, pride, fear, or discord. So, what are the true fruits of your life? It's time to do some fruit inspection. Take a good honest look, eye them over, lift them up, examine them, test them, apply the pressure, and see if they're good and true. If not, throw them back and do whatever you have to do until the fruits of your life will hold up on the day of judgment in the hands of The Final Fruit Inspector.

Today's Mission
Today, take a good honest look at the fruit you are producing and do whatever it takes to bring forth good fruit.

Matthew 7:17
King James Version
17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.
“Be wary of false preachers who smile a lot, dripping with practiced sincerity. Chances are they are out to rip you off some way or other. Don’t be impressed with charisma; look for character. Who preachers are is the main thing, not what they say. A genuine leader will never exploit your emotions or your pocketbook. These diseased trees with their bad apples are going to be chopped down and burned.

Have a blessed and safe week!
May Yeshua Hamashiach bless you.
