_ good results are attractive
Key scripture: John15:5,8
5. I am the Vine; you are the branches. Whoever lives in Me and I in him bears much (abundant) fruit. However, apart from Me [cut off from vital union with Me] you can do nothing.
8. When you bear (produce) much fruit, My Father is honored and glorified, and you show and prove yourselves to be true followers of Mine.
Dear friend,
Every body wants a good result. No person wants to work so hard and not see any thing to show for it. No one is willing to put in so much into anything without anything tangible to show for your time, energy and money that went into. Reason being that, we all live in a result driven world (people are willing to follow you if you have results). We rate by man's own standard of success. If you don't have A1 in the exam then you may not be seen as intelligent. If you don't drive a good car or live in a good house then you are not so rich. If you don't look good then maybe he/she is not so successful! The question is who determines our fruitfulness?
*Apart from me you can do nothing!*
_I remember saying how it's Him (the vine) that makes everything out of anything you do or have._ So it implies that we can not bear good fruit apart from Him. He is the source of everything good and perfect.
Listen friend, I'm very aware that there are so many means of getting done what we want today, just like there are quicker ways of getting a fruit ripe just before it's time. So many very quick means of getting rich, getting married, passing an exam, getting a job, building a house and so on. And we are often drawn to quick ways. We wants to have the chemicals, so we can ripen the fruit on-time.
*If He gives the fruit, then he can make it ripe and ready.* No need to hurry. The branches are never in a hurry to ripen it's fruits before the season is over. No! Time happens to it. Time is the best and only chemical you need.
*God is honored and glorified when you get good results in Him*
Never believe the lie that you can not do more. Jesus said when you produce "much" fruit... It means, there is always room for much more. Never come to think that this is the best you can ever arrive at or attain. Never accept that your current position is your best and last position. Or they things you have accomplished are they best there is to accomplish. *In God, there is always room for improvement, growth, increase, expansion and more fruit.* He demands that we keep pressing. And friends, this brings honor to Him! He never made you to end small.
I'm tired of seeing Christians avoid trying big things and always thinking small. Small pictures will only take you to small places. And we forget that the power to do much more than an average man can do lies within us! We can do anything/everything through Christ! Your abundant fruitfulness is only granted by staying joined to the vine and His word staying in you.
*Let your results speak*
You know, people often see you before the hear you. That's why your results must do the talking. You can't just preach/teach about excellent and have nothing whatsoever to show for it. You can't teach about a good marriage and your home is in a mess. You can't teach about being a good man, yet you are far from it. My point is, you must be sure to walk into it if you must preach it. Let it be seen in you, so that when you are not talking it you are living it.
*Experience is not the best teacher, the best teacher is an experienced teacher.* Because sometimes you go through things and come out worse, or don't learn anything. Someone who has gone through it, understands it and has become it, is the best person to teach it. If you are not living it, there is nothing to show. If you must help young people get out of addiction, then I think you should have gone through it and overcame it so that you know how they feel and how to help them out.
_I strongly believe that the things/places God takes us through is so we can bear fruits that people will see and eat and it will bring them out of the things and places they are in._
