#E29 The Fruit of the Spirit

The fruit of the Spirit are 9 characteristics that are part of one fruit. That's right! Fruit! It's singular and comes from the Greek word, karpos. It's one fruit that encompasses the grace of God working and growing in us. If the Holy Ghost is present in your life, it is impossible have a potion of the fruit without all of its components. The fruit of the Spirit are 9 qualities that operate together.

We need to pay closer attention and spend less time correcting our actions, but rather having a circumcised heart. A heart focused on Jesus, will always exemplify good character transcending outward appearances.

#E26 Our Epic Fails Part I-3 No One Is Beyond Saving

Some of our biggest failures can be rendered to do God's will and to demonstrate his divine purpose in our lives. There may not be a record of all the good we've done and frankly, it may be the most atrocious and horrendous things people remember about us most. Don't fret, don't you give up and dwell in your past. For it is the LORD, who searcheth the heart and examines the mind. It is he who rewards a man according to his way, by what his deeds deserve.

#E25 Our Epic Fails Part II - Mission Impossible...Says Who?

Your name reiterates who you are and what you are called to do every time it is spoken!  That’s right! This is BIG! This means at conception, when you were created in the secret parts of your mother's womb God called you to your future. Our past and present builds our testimony for our future. When God places a call upon our lives, and assigns us to do great and mighty things in His name...He’s already determined that we will accomplish it.  This is extraordinary! If God calls you to be something, evidently he believes you are that!! Why doubt Him? Many of us do, and we struggle with things that we have contrived as it will never happen or allow people to call us things we are not. Inquire of the Lord about who you are and what he calls you. He’ll tell you what he calls you like he told so many others. Myself included. Mission Impossible...says Who?
