Daily Verse:<\/strong> \u201cMy fruit is\u00a0better than\u00a0gold, even fine gold, and my yield than\u00a0choice silver.\u201d Prov. 8:19<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nothing compares to the fruit produced from a heart dedicated to Christ, led by the Holy Spirit:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cBut the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law.\u201d Galatians 5:22-23<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Obeying God\u2019s commands produces His fruit. Becoming more like Jesus makes us more loving, joyful, peaceful, patient, kind, good, faithful, gentle, and self-controlling.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIf you love me, you will\u00a0keep my commandments. And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another\u00a0Helper,\u00a0to be with you forever\u00a0\u201c(John 14:15-16)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We can produce fruit better than gold if God\u2019s Spirit guides and directs us. Jesus left us with a Helper, an unbreakable connection to our Creator. Seeking the Lord\u2019s wisdom and accessing His strength will help us live uncommon lives, producing exceptional fruit.<\/p>\n\n\n

Lord, how desperately we want to produce fruit better than gold.\u00a0 Help us get out of our way, allowing the Spirit to lead us, letting us produce Your fruits in our lives.\u00a0 IJNIP. Amen<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
