Fruitful

Fruitful
.
"I brought you into the fruitful land to eat its fruit and its good things

He caused His people to be very fruitful

Isn't it obvious that faith and works are yoked partners, that faith expresses itself in works? That the works are "works of faith"? The full meaning of "believe" in the Scripture sentence, "Abraham believed God and was set right with God," includes his action. It's that mesh of believing and acting that got Abraham named "God's friend." Is it not evident that a person is made right with God not by a barren faith but by faith fruitful in works?

Remain in me, and I will remain in you. For a branch cannot produce fruit if it is severed from the vine, and you cannot be fruitful unless you remain in me

He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit, while every branch that does bear fruit he prunes so that it will be even more fruitful.

If I live, I can do more fruitful work for Christ.

Jeremiah 2:7 Psalm 105:24 James 2:21 John 15:4 John 15:2 Philippians 1:22

Trusting God’s faithfulness dispels our fearfulness.
