‘But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law. ‘ Galatians 5:22-23
But the Spirit produces love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, humility, and self-control. There is no law against such things as these. Galatians 5:22-23
These fruits are available to every spirit filled Christian. These fruits are the character of God, and the character He wants for us.
Examples of God’s Characters
- Love
‘He who does not love does not know God, for God is love. ‘ I John 4:8
- Joy
‘The Lord your God in your midst, The Mighty One, will save; He will rejoice over you with gladness, He will quiet you with His love, He will rejoice over you with singing.”’ Zephaniah 3:17
- Peace
‘Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.’ Romans 15:13
- Patience
‘I, the Lord, am not easily angered, and I show great love and faithfulness and forgive sin and rebellion. Yet I will not fail to punish children and grandchildren to the third and fourth generation for the sins of their parents.’ Numbers 14:18
Out of love, joy, peace, and patience which do you need the most today? He wants you to enjoy each of these fruits.
When we are lacking one of these fruits ask God to show us what sin to confess or what direction to go!
Do you have a sin you need to confess or is there a direction you need to go?
Prayer: “God would you fill me with love, joy, peace, and patience today in Jesus Name, Amen.”
