From Me Comes Your Fruit

Today’s Word Of Encouragement From Wayne:

“It is I Who answer and look after You. I am like a luxuriant Cypress; from Me comes your fruit.”

Hosea 14:8

Hallelujah, my sisters and brothers in Jesus Christ! Every single time you and I go to minister to our Lord, it is like we are going up to the biggest, most beautiful, luxuriant tree in the whole world to gather fruit.

You see, if God is a tree and from Him comes our fruit, then only one thing remains for us to do, and this is, let us go up to this big, beautiful, luxuriant tree of life so we may receive this great fruitfulness of God into our lives!

Trees don’t move. They are rooted. If we want fruit from a fruit tree, than it is upon us to go to the tree.

Hallelujah! The Lord God is our tree.

Let us go to Him, minister before His presence, and behold His fruitfulness.

Here are three wonderful truths for our lives in Jesus Christ, to enrich us everyday, that our God blesses us to realize in the actual practice of our priesthood. Yes, three beautiful truths for us to behold, every time we approach our “luxuriant cypress.”

First - “It is I Who answer you.”

Second - “And look after you.”

Third - “From Me comes your fruit.”

God is answering us, looking after us, and giving us fruit, every time we draw near to minister before Him!

The priest of God, who ministers regularly to the Lord, knows that all of our fruitfulness comes from our God and it is our most blessed privilege, as His kingdom of priests, to approach our fruitful tree of life in His presence so we may receive more fruit for life.

If we believe and understand this statement, “I am like a luxuriant cypress; from Me comes your fruit,” then we know it is incumbent upon us, for the glory of God and for our own sense of well being, to regularly draw near to our tree for His fruit.

God doesn’t throw fruit at us. No. Instead, He invites us to respectfully approach Him, honoring His presence, and as we linger with Him, fruit is made manifest to us and within us.

As ministers to our Lord we are so privileged in His presence to partake of His bread of life, drink His living water, and receive fruit from Him, Himself!

The very act of our entering God’s presence to minister to Him is great fruitfulness immediately for our lives in Christ.

Thank God today for these magnificent blessings He is showering upon you, as you abide in His presence, and never forget “From Me comes your fruit.” Hallelujah!
