The Call to Bear the Fruit of the Spirit Look at what Jesus is
saying, I am in my Father, and you are in me-- the mutual and reciprocal
indwelling of the Triune God who gives and who deserves and expects to receive
love. Jesus is the One who reveals the Father. He relates that faith in Him, in
Jesus, is equal to faith in God, thus we will be upheld and be successful (2
Chron. 20:20; John 10:38; 11:25-26; 14:10).
As He is the Vine, we are
the branches. This encompasses all--our relationship in Christ, our being
united in Christ, part of His plan and His appendage as He provides the
indispensable sap of substance for life and salvation and faithfulness. A branch
is a part of the vine with the sole purpose of producing fruit. If the branch
can't do that because of infection or rot or bad care, it must be fertilized and
developed to coax it to thrive and produce. If nothing ever comes from it and it
is dead, it never was His Vine stem (like Judas) (Eph. 1:22-23). This is the engine to what He gives in faith, fruit and empowerment. (Gen. 12:1-3; Ex. 3:14; Psalm 40:1-2; 80:8-16; Isa. 5:1-7; 53:6; Jer. 2:21; 6:9; Ezek. 15; 17:5-10; 19:10-14; Hos. 10:1; 14:8; John 4:24; 6:35; 8:58; Rom. 3:23; 10:9).

Being Loyal to Christ and His Bride
Is our church being a Conspiracy against God? The main call for us is to
heed Christ's love, grace, and call, and that any evil power--past, present, or
future--is not to be feared by us Christians! The phrase, God has put it in
their hearts, refers that He is still in control. Even when the world seems
to be in chaos and discord, He is there with us, ever faithful and still in
charge. Our duty and call is to fix our eyes on Christ, not on the troubles.
This is the key to dealing with suffering and when life does not seem to make
sense. The answer is not making up our own Gospel or changing His Message to our
own (2 Cor. 4:18; Heb. 12:1-3).

E Books Church Growth Tip and Prayer of the Week
Ideas to consider: (Romans 12:18; 14:18-19; Ephesians 4:3; Hebrews 12:14) Be careful about taking on too many negative people! Spread the load out.
Delegate. There is only so much you can take; guard your own heart too!
(Proverbs 4:23)
Pray that the Word of God will never be compromised, cheapened, or dumbed
down, rather be delivered in confidence with power, conviction, clarity,
boldness, with love, and in truth (Acts 6:4; Col. 1:28; 1 Tim. 2:1-2; 2 Tim.
2:15).
