                         Bare Fruit

My people, be encouraged!!!  The attacks, testings and fires of the past 
have caused many of you to become battle-weary. But now is not the time to 
give up or give in or doubt.  Instead, It is time to fight and to stand in 
intercession for your promises.  Do not allow doubts, fears, slothfulness, 
or lethargy to come near your house.  Keep praying for breakthroughs for
the many prayers and promises that are yet not fulfilled.  Keep your natural 
eyes in submission to your spiritual eyes.  

I am bringing you into alignment with My perfect plans for you.  I am 
bringing your soul to a Spirit-controlled place.  Your emotions, your will 
and desires, and even your thoughts are being brought into complete obedience 
to My Lordship.  This is the deep refinings of the soul.  This refining of 
your soul causes the fruit of the Spirit to come forth and remain.  It does 
not come and go, it remains.  And you will bear much fruit in your life. For 
the fruit coming forth in you is the next level of holiness; for the fruit 
of My Spirit is true holiness.

Picture yourself as the war horse with the side blinders on and stay 
focused straight ahead on Me. Know that I am in you and I am able and 
faithful to perfect and complete all that I have begun in you and all that 
is concerning you now.  For I am in you, and I am the victorious warrior 
king. So hold your head up high and believe in Me.  You will bear much fruit 
in your own life and then in the days of harvest to come.

Go bear much fruit!!!!!!
