Galatians 5:22–23

Goodness is love choosing to do what is right … in God’s eyes.

"Wherefore also we pray always for you, that our God would count you worthy of this calling, and fulfill all the good pleasure of his goodness, and the work of faith with power"

أَجْلِ ذَلِكَ أَيْضاً نُصَلِّي مِنْ أَجْلِكُمْ عَلَى الدَّوَامِ، لِكَيْ يَجْعَلَكُمْ إِلهُنَا مُؤَهَّلِينَ لِلدَّعْوَةِ الإِلهِيَّةِ وَيُتِمَّ فِيكُمْ، بِقُدْرَتِهِ، كُلَّ مَا يُسِرُّهُ مِنَ الصَّلاَحِ وَفَعَّالِيَّةِ الإِيمَانِ،

2 Thessalonians 1:11

"For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth"

فَإِنَّ ثَمَرَ النُّورِ يَكُونُ فِي كُلِّ صَلاَحٍ وَاسْتِقَامَةٍ وَحَقٍّ.

Ephesians 5:9

Faithfulness (faith) is love in keeping commitments in relationships. Only The Holy Spirit can produce the quality of loyalty no matter the cost.

O Lord, thou art my God; I will exalt thee, I will praise thy name; for thou hast done wonderful things; thy counsels of old are faithfulness and truth

يَا رَبُّ أَنْتَ إِلَهِي، أُعَظِّمُكَ وَأَحْمَدُ اسْمَكَ لأَنَّكَ صَنَعْتَ عَجَائِبَ كُنْتُ قَد قَضَيْتَ بِهَا مَنْذُ الْقِدَمِ، وَهِيَ حَقٌّ وَصِدْقٌ.

Isaiah 25:1

I invite you to repeat the following prayer for yourself:

Abba Father, thank You for Your abundant blessings for You have done wonderful things for me, and thank You for Your deep, and everlasting love for me. O gracious and merciful God, fill my heart with the fruit of Your Holy Spirit. God please count me worthy of this devotion ministry calling, and fulfill all the good pleasure of Your goodness, and the work of faith with power. I pray that out of Your glorious riches You may strengthen me with power through Your Spirit in my inner being, so that I can always exalt You Lord, praise You, revere You, worship You, stand in awe of You, lift You up on high and glorify Your Holy Name. Your counsels to me have always been faithful and true. In the mighty name of Jesus; my Lord and Saviour; The King of kings and Lord of lords, in The Holy Name of Your only begotten Son Jesus, I pray to You Father. To Jesus be the power, the glory, the majesty and the dominion forever and ever and unto ages of all ages. Amen.

Jesus loves you,

In Him,

August 22 Devotion - The Fruit of The Spirit - Part 1

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ. This week we will look at: The Fruit of The Spirit. 5 part series.

The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control.

واما ثمر الروح فهو محبة فرح سلام طول اناة لطف صلاح ايمان

وداعة تعفف.

Galatians 5:22–23

"Fruit of the Spirit" is a Biblical term that sums up the nine visible attributes of a true Christian life. We learn from scripture that these are not individual "fruits" from which we pick and choose. Rather, the fruit of the Spirit is one ninefold "fruit" that characterizes all who truly walk in the Holy Spirit. Collectively, these are the fruits that all Christians should be producing through The Holy Spirit. The way to the fulfillment of the law is not to live under the law like slaves, but to live by the Spirit as children of God.

The fruit of the Holy Spirit is first and foremost love. All of the other qualities associated with having the Holy Spirit flow from the presence of God’s love in us.

 

We have come to know [by personal observation and experience], and have believed [with deep, consistent faith] the love which God has for us and God abides continually in him.

1 John 4:16 AMP

I invite you to repeat the following prayer for yourself:

Abba Father, thank You for Your abundant blessings and deep, everlasting, and inseparable love. O gracious and merciful God, fill my heart with the fruit of Your Holy Spirit - love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. Fill me Jesus with the moral qualities produced by the Spirit. Teach and strengthen me to love those who hate me; to pray for those who despitefully use me; so that I may be a child of God, my Father, who makes the sun to shine on the evil and on the good and send rain on the just and on the unjust. Fill my heart dear Lord with Your unconditional Agape love.I pray that out of Your glorious riches You may strengthen me with power through Your Spirit in my inner being, so that Christ may dwell in my heart through faith. Ephesians 3:16-17 God I praise You, revere You, worship You, glorify You and I stand in awe of You. I declare to the world that Jesus Christ is my Lord and Saviour and I pray in His Holy Name. To Him be the power, the glory, the majesty and the dominion forever and ever and unto ages of all ages. Amen.

Jesus loves you, 
In Him,
