Luke 12:32 From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Tsungi Mukandi Sent: Thursday, November 04, 2010 11:06 AM To: [email protected] Subject: ABIDING IN THE VINE! You know its funny I was actually looking for the word of the day! I`m really getting used to this. Abide in me and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine, no more can ye, except ye abide in me.' John 15:4 We cannot bear fruit on our own. What a reminder, what a word! You know I had a chat with my dad this morning and we were talking about the exact same thing. The crux of our conversation was that we live in a society that you need to do it yourself. We have so many self help books on how you can help yourself with this and that. But as Christians God Himself added in another factor that we often ignore to our own demise. Thinking about todays word Jesus Himself said without Him we cannot bear fruit. And I`ve been meditating on that and you sometimes look and you see "fruit". As I`ve been thinking about it I think its the difference between an Isaac and an Ishmael. I think you can bear fruit in the flesh but whatever you bring forth does not have the capacity within itself to produce a God result. E.g Ishmael was a child but he couldn`t brin about the purposes of God on earth. From Isaac came Jacob from Jacob the 12 Tribes of Israel and consequently Israel as we know it today. If we read further Isaac was linked a lot to the coming of the Lord Jesus Himself. But only Isaac had the capacity to produce those results and not Ishmael. You know I`ve seen how some people can do things, have good ideas say nice things that tickle the ears but it lacks the God element. Something is just different when you bear fruit bring results that emanate from ABIDING IN THE VINE!. One more thing is Tawanda shared yesterday about maintaining an attitude of being NOTHING before God. And then he went to say only He can make something out of nothing. maybe we would have greater success if we just humbled ourselves everyday before God and worked hard to stay in the word and in prayer then we would bear fruit from ABIDING IN THE VINE. The Lord Jesus went on to say when you bear that fruit it will be fruit that remains! Wow I`m really enjoying sharing the word together. Enjoy your day!

As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine, no more can ye, except ye abide in me.' John 15:4 How clearer can the message get than this. The principle is simple, you cannot bear fruit on your own. Many times we make decisions, plans etc and often do not take time to listern to God or ask if it is the path to take and we end up in trouble or God just shuts the avenues like what Pst Lync said on Saturday. If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you. 15:7 when u come to that place of being in the word, abiding in him, i believe u will get revelation and wisdom to ask in faith and you will recieve that which u seek. Let us abide in him, keep the faith in him and stay in the word and he will demonstrate his abilities to keep his word. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "tribewithavibe" group.
