Scripture Of The Day

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.   Galatians 5:22-23

By Cheryl Henderson (Excerpts from Gloria Copeland)

I have heard many sermons about the fruit of the Spirit. I have read the scripture many times. I have found that so many believers think of the fruit of the Spirit as little more than a passive list of pleasant qualities that can help improve their personalities. But it’s far greater than that! It’s pure spiritual power. To demonstrate this, go to www.newlifenetwork.org, click on Media, and watch the video in the middle of the screen. This is a powerful testimony of God's love.

Love is so powerful, the scripture says, that it never fails. Patience is so powerful it cannot be stopped. No matter what the circumstances, it will not quit. Temperance is so powerful that it can master all the unruly desires of your flesh.

The fruit of the Spirit is not weak; it’s strong. So strong that all the demons of hell can’t stop it. So strong that if you’ll let it flow out of you, it will correct the problems in your life. It will keep you steadfast when all the people around you are falling. It’ll keep you on your feet when governments fail and when the storms of life come.

We are living in dangerous days. There’s only one way you can make it through in victory. You must begin to release the powerful fruit of the Spirit God has placed inside you. Believe me, if you’re born again, it is there. Learn to yield to it, and as 2 Peter 1:10 promised, you shall never fall!
