Will you able to lead a fruitful life today. “Fruitful” is a very difficult term. There are good and bad fruit. Why we say fruitful life? Most of the people say I will not make any disturbance to anyone. Did you felt disturbed by me anytime? So I am a good believer. People think making disturbance to others is not a symbol of goodness. Somewhat making a little disturbance can achieve something. A lifeless life bears no fruit. Idle life’s are there without any fruit. No encouragement and no support to anyone. No disturbance and no spiritual growth.
How to make believers life fruitful? John 15:1 Jesus said. I am the true vine and my father is the winegrower. And here Jesus is Illustrating himself as the vine and God the father as the winegrower but in words 15:4 Illustrate his people as the branches. Here Jesus is giving the real fact of how a believer can bear fruit. Abide in me as I abide in you just as the branch cannot bear fruit by itself unless it abides in the vine. We are the branches and he is the vine to bear good fruit stick with Him. This way a believer can bear the real fruit in his life. He said you are already been cleansed by the word that I have spoken to you. So there is no chance of bearing bad fruit. John 15:2 every branch that bears fruit he prunes it make it bear more fruit. When we are pruned by the father we will be wounded and it hurts. That pain will turn to more fruit.
But Jesus said if anybody does not bear fruit then he is of no use and he will be removed from the vine by the father, the winegrower. So your life must be fruitful, bearing good fruit for others. Those who are removed from the vine then no longer abide in the vine so the result is a lifeless branch and he will be thrown to the fire.
For a fruitful life abide and be in his love. This is very important when we are in Jesus; his love is flowing to us and this love makes everything fruitful.
