Bearing Fruit

From: Ed Young Sr.

1 Corinthians 15:58 "Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your toil is not in vain in the Lord."  

God can do anything He desires, but has chosen humans to be His co-laborers. It takes God’s provision and an individual’s "toil" to produce the harvest. 

Without God, we can do nothing. Without our effort and cooperation, God won’t accomplish His aims. This is not because He is weak or unable, but because He is faithful to His covenant. 

God appointed Adam and Eve to tend the Garden, and the Garden would supply what they needed. This covenant of provision and performance stands. And the guarantee is that whatever we do in and through God will always bear fruit.
