Bearing fruit supernaturally
Continuing on from yesterday's verse (John 15:5) "if a man remains in me and I in him, he will bear much fruit." This verse took on a deeper meaning for me today as I studied the lampstand in the tabernacle. Beth Moore draws the parallel of the oil in lampstand that fuels the fire to Jesus sending the Holy Spirit to fill our light. Matt 5:14. As she goes on to describe how when we are filled with the Holy Spirit we produce the fruit of the spirit supernaturally. There's nothing we have to or can do to produce this fruit on our own. We just have to ask God to purify us and make us a vessel fit for His presence. It is good for me to realize those attributes, particularly the ones I struggle with, come ultimately from Him.
