Fruit of the Spirit

When you accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior blessings will follow. In John 14: 25-26
Jesus said, ‘The things I have spoken to you while being present with you, but the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you.’ The Fruit of the Holy Spirit and the blessings there of come only from the Holy Spirit. Those blessings are as follows.

Love as defined in the Bible is not what we feel but what we do. Love is truly a selfless act of sacrifice, putting others before ourselves. Love is being humble, extending kindness, and never envious of material possessions. Because the Holy Spirit first loved us we are able express our love to others. Read verses John 3:16 and 1 John 4: 19-21.

Joy is an everlasting emotion, an assurance that the Holy Spirit is continuously within us, therefore we can rest in comfort and confidence. Don’t confuse happiness with joy, happiness is for the moment, a facial expression. Joy is eternal and comes from the heart. Read verse Psalms 94: 18-19.

Peace is freedom from sin. The peace from God which surpasses all understanding will guard our heart and mind in Christ Jesus, Philippians 4: 6-7. Read vs John 16:33.

Patience with others requires an understanding from all levels. Gentleness, compassion, kindness, slow to speak, and being humble will contribute immensely to any situation. Read vs 1 Peter 3:9.

Kindness begins with a calm spirit, being merciful and not vindictive or threatening.
Read vs Ephesians 4:32.

Generosity is a form of good will, sharing with others, your time, finances, what ever you have in your storehouse. Giving comes from a generous heart. Read vs Exodus 35: 5-21.

Faithfulness is simply obedience to God. Faithfulness is what we want to do, not what we have to do. God shows no favor who diligently seek His face. Read vs 2 Thessalonians 3:3.

Gentleness is resting in God’s hands and gracefully learn from Him. Read vs Matthew 28:29.

Self Control is controlling your emotions and anger. Being respectful to others. A mild answer turns back wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger. Proverbs 15:1.

Having read through each of the Fruits, much more could be written about each, but I’m confident you understand the essence of the material. The question is, did you recognize the similarities, the cohesiveness, and how each Fruit intertwined with the other. My prayer for you is that you will intertwine your life and surroundings with the Holy Spirit. There is so much to be gained spiritually which can only comfort you and others in this social disorder that we experience today.
I ask you to read Galatians 5:16-26. Walking in the Spirit.
