John 15:1,2 ( I AM the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit he pruneth it, that it may bring forth more fruit)
Every believer in Christ has only one source and one origin which is the lord Jesus Christ.
They have been severed from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil and attached to the tree of life, where they will never wither but produce more fruit unto the lord in due season according to their abilities, because they’re planted by the riverside.
If they are cut off from the vine they wither and die and are cast into fire.
The fruit of your life indicates where you’re rooted, it indicates the source, branches gain nutrients from the tree, the fruit of bitterness is a result of a sorrowful root.
A salt that lost its taste isn’t fitted for the ground or dunghil but to be trampled upon under the feet of men.
A candle that’s under a coverage had no influence over the household, but unfortunately, the light of many Christians has been put out while their salt has become tasteless, they’re neither good for man nor the beast, and they become material for fire.
They lost their impact in the life of unbelievers neither will they influence believers, they are also useless to themselves nothing remain than to be cast into the fire of hell.
No branch can bear fruit by itself; it’s never possible for those who think they have arrive that later detached themselves from following the word of God, the main source of their life, they will start withering from the bottom to the top.
They cut themselves with their attitude towards the word of God, they took it with levity and relied on their own understanding and lost the race.
They follow the way that seems right before men not knowing that the end thereof is death.
Some people are burning with the fire of God in the beginning of their ministry, they sacrifice all things in the process of preaching the gospel, but in the middle of their life, their Jeshurun deviates and sins against God when their stomach is full.
They become cold, and flies and cockroaches start perching on their life and lay the eggs of decadence and afflictions, this is when they will become companions with familiar spirits, while witches and wizards will be attracted to their ministry to cause havoc, no one who is burning with divine fire will experience all these things unless he has cut himself off from the true vine.
They rely on their flesh to produce corrupted fruits, you will know in their ministration that the fire is off, only packaging that remains, and they rely on their lost glory to shine.
The fruit of their life will expose them and their sin will find them out.
When you see a minister of God who is asking if heaven and hell are real, you’ll know that something is wrong somewhere, when you see a once vibrant minister of God who is now questioning the divinity of Jesus Christ or wrongly dividing the word of truth to please his flesh, his branch is already cut off from the vine.
I heard of a man of God who was asking his congregation When God says, in the beginning, God created heaven and the earth, who was there by then? Claiming that the word of God is not perfect.
These kinds of people whose branches have fallen off are the ones confusing the church about the supremacy of Christ and want to add their own exegesis to prove a useless point, run away from them.
Do you need to know when the heaven and earth were created or do you need to be there when the host of heaven sang a song of unity before you can believe in the existence of God?
God asked Job this kind of question which he wasn’t able to answer, because he knew the Sovereignty of God, nothing is hidden from him.
That is why you need to believe in the testimony of the lord Jesus Christ, if you’re asking about how he resurrected or need proof of it before you can believe, you need to query your faith, if it’s truly standing on the testimony of Jesus Christ.
When you see a man who is connected to the vine, he will have hunger and thirst to know him the more as the hart is panting after water so his heart will pant after God, if this hasn’t happen to you, you are not connected to him, you can’t be connected with life and you’ll remain in the congregation of the dead and you cant have connection with light and your life wil be full of darkness.
If you have disconnected yourself from the vine and you don’t see the impact in your life, it means that you’re already wither ready to be cast into the fire of hell.
A soldier who deserted from the battle won’t have any backing at the war front, many soldiers of Christ have deserted from their lord of hosts, battling the enemy with the weapon of flesh, they rely on their own understanding and remove their trust in God.
When they first started it seems as if they’re still belong, but after, heresies will begin to manifest in their message, the first love has disappeared and their heart is shifted to seeking to please the world and displeased their saviour, this is the manifestation of those who are cut off from the vine, they lost the life of God and his light departed making their abode with the congregation of the dead.
Prayer: Father lord, uphold me with your right hand of power, don’t let me deviate from you, in Jesus name amen.
