Fruit Basket
October 2 Week 2 Day 4 Fruit Basket
Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh.
Galatians 5:16
Funny, when I first typed this I typed "list of the flesh."
Yuck, the list of the flesh is not a becoming list!
The list of the gifts of the Spirit is much more appealing.
(Ha, a PEELING, like a banana, apple, orange, pear, etc.)
Blackaby makes several encouraging statements in this chapter:
1. The Spirit will make you aware of the enormous riches God
has at your disposal.
2. The Spirit qualifies you to receive what the Father wants to give you.
3. When the Spirit of God enters the life of a new Christian,
His assignment is to produce spiritual fruit in that life.
What's in your basket?
Love
Joy
Peace
Longsuffering
Kindness
Goodness
Faithfulness
Gentleness
Self-control
Let's Pray: Heavenly Father, the Giver of Good Gifts,
we love you and thank You for providing us with the
Holy Spirit as a personal trainer! Use this reminder today
of what You wish for us to spur us on to growth in the Spirit.
There is room for improvement in all categories, but speak
to us today specifically of the ones we need to pump up
through the Spirit's power. In Jesus Name, Amen
