LUSCIOUS FRUITS

WHERE ARE YOU PLANTED?

Where you are planted will determine how luscious your fruits.  
It is important that we are planted by a water source or have access to water.
Psalm chapter 1 gives us an analogy of fruit bearing like being planted by rivers of waters.  That say the Psalmist guarantees fruit at the right season of the tree.

There are conditions as reflected in the Psalm for these luscious fruits.

  1. You must not walk in the counsel of the ungodly
  2.  You must not sit in the seat of the scornful
  3.  You MUST delight yourself in the law of the Lord and meditate on it day and night

Having meet the requirements above lets discuss: 

Today's Focus:  WHAT FRUITS ARE YOU BEARING?

Galatians 5:22-23

King James Version (KJV)
22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,
23 Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.

Reviewing from the list above state some of your luscious fruits from your godly tree and express how it has impacted or benefited you or bless someone else.

Remember fruit bearing is evident - It's either there or not there.  A fruit cannot be hidden it must be seen and if the season has come and it's not seen, it needs to be developed.  

Grow in grace! 

God Bless and Keep the faith!

DISTRACTORS AND DISTRACTIONS


BE HONEST WITH YOU

This morning the Lord reminded me of the things we put before Him or allowing to come between our worship and time spent in His presence. 

THANK GOD for the book, Having a Mary Heart in a Martha World. I am now more conscious and learned so much.  I Strongly recommend a copy to everyone!


Can I ask my friends and family to be HONEST with me today?
When you wake up in middle of the night or in the morning what grabs your attention or calls to your spirit first?

TODAY'S FOCUS:  

There are so many things that distracts us when we should be spending time with God.  Here are a few (you can add others as it applies).

The Cell phone - messages/email etc.
Facebook messages
Telephone call to someone
Food
Your favorite TV Show
Video games
The clock
Spouse or children
The News
Housework
School work
unfinished assignments
upcoming events
Other....



WHAT ARE YOUR SUGGESTIONS OR BEST PRACTICES?

Let's discuss how can we avoid some of these distractions upon waking up in the morning or when it's our worship time.  

Pray today....
Lord help me to stay focus and avoid every distractor and distractions in Jesus name.


God Bless you, and remember to keep the faith!
