Sacred Truth Friday: Bear Fruit for God
Today's Devo
For the earth which drinks in the rain that often comes upon it, and bears herbs useful for those by whom it is cultivated, receives blessing from God; but if it bears thorns and briers, it is rejected and near to being cursed, whose end is to be burned.
Hebrews 6:7-8 NKJV
https://bible.com/bible/114/heb.6.7-8.NKJV
We are to bear fruit for God, not briers and thorns. If we don't bear fruit we'll be cursed and lose our salvation.
Therefore, my beloved, as you have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling;
Philippians 2:12 NKJV
https://bible.com/bible/114/php.2.12.NKJV

Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God and keep His commandments, For this is man’s all. For God will bring every work into judgment, Including every secret thing, Whether good or evil.
Ecclesiastes 12:13-14 NKJV
https://bible.com/bible/114/ecc.12.13-14.NKJV
We are to fear God and keep His commandments. This is our all. He will bring every work into judgment, whether good or bad.
For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that each one may receive the things done in the body, according to what he has done, whether good or bad.
II Corinthians 5:10 NKJV
https://bible.com/bible/114/2co.5.10.NKJV

https://bible.com/bible/114/2co.13.5.NKJV
So let's examine ourselves daily and bear fruit for God.
If you have not obeyed the gospel then please obey before it's everlasting too late.
