The amount of time we spend with Jesus – meditating on His Word and His majesty, seeking His face – establishes our fruitfulness in the kingdom.

If you’re in a fruit stand and you make your living selling apples and nothing more, you best be selling apples. The problem with many Christians is they aren’t spreading the Word of God at all, because they don’t know it. They are selling what they think they should be, but the problem is there is truth to be shared and told to others.
The fruit comes from the Holy Spirit, Jesus, and God (the Trinity). Jesus is the Word. The Holy Spirit doesn’t teach contrary to the Word. Jesus doesn’t do anything apart from the Father.
John 5:19 – 19 Jesus gave them this answer: “I tell you the truth, the Son can do nothing by himself; he can do only what he sees his Father doing, because whatever the Father does the Son also does.
As Christians we can’t be selling whatever fruit we want, especially as we see many doing in these last days. The only way to know if it’s the right fruit is to meditate on His Word.
