Today’s Scripture: Matthew 21:43; Therefore I tell you, the kingdom of God will be taken away from you and given to a people producing its fruits.
Jesus was being challenged by the religious leaders. God planted Jesus with us and we are called to continue to bear witness of Him today and even more so do our part to help produce His fruits.
The life and lessons of Jesus were left in our care. I pray we can continue to present the gospel with the calmness and strength of Jesus. We really do know what Jesus’ fruits look like don’t we? We know whether we are producing His fruits or not.
As told in Matthew 22, I pray to pay more attention to the work of Jesus than any other business. If we have been chosen we must prepare ourselves and work for Him. How do we prepare?
We love the Lord our God with all of our hearts and with all of our souls and all of our minds. As we love our neighbors as ourselves we produce His fruit.
What will you produce today?
Today’s Prayer: Father God, thank you for sending Jesus to us. Thank You for allowing me to bear witness of Him even today. Lord, I pray to be about Your business today and produce the fruits of the Kingdom you have called for me to produce. I love You LORD with all of my heart, my soul and my mind. Help me to love others and help us produce Your fruits. Amen

Affirmations of God

Lately Tom I feel consumed by the Lord and His work. I have this urgency to work for I feel the night is coming.
Thanks Joseph, I too have this sense of urgency to complete the work I have been given. You will find this odd, but not really, but in five years of this blog I have NEVER written a blog a day in advance…but due to some knew Facebook ministry things I am doing I actually wrote a blog just now and scheduled for it to release tomorrow morning….you will see that God has us on the very same page (He is amazing)…God bless you my brother as we give what we have with a sense of urgency!
Amen Tom! I love how the Holy Spirit works like that!
For sure!! His obvious ways confirm His messages and remove all doubt. As we experience Him more and more we are emboldened to produce His fruit more and more. We are encouraged and spurred on by the sharing of fellow believers and followers.
