Fruitfulness

From: Ambassadors For Christ International - John North

Psalm 1:3 "He will be like a tree firmly planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in its season. And its leaf does not wither; and in whatever he does, he prospers."

Fruit-bearing is the natural result of healthy growth in the tree. If the tree is in the right soil, receiving the right water, then it will be fruitful!

God’s plan for you is fruitfulness. That is, Christlike character and godly choices can be the natural outflow of your life! God wants to change your inner life so much that a godly way of living (the fruit of the tree) is the natural outflow of what God is doing inside you!

Prune out of your life those things that pour the world’s way of thinking into you. When you focus your life on what God is saying to you in His Word, then your mind is renewed, your inner life is transformed, and what is happening on the inside of you shows up on the outside of you.
