S: Matthew 7:15a, 16, "Watch out for false prophets...By their fruit you will recognize them. Do people pick grapes from thornbushes, or figs from thistles?
O: They will show themselves through what they produce. Their heart is revealed by what they pass on and teach to others. They can portray something they aren't outwardly but they can't produce something they're not inwardly. They might fool us but their fruit won't.
A: Need to observe my children. What are they saying? How are they treating others? What are they expressing about the person of Jesus? They are my fruit and are a reflection of what's in my heart and my walk with You.
P: Lord, Jesus the responsibility feels great when I try to produce my own fruit. Help me to plant, water, weed and fertilize well through your Word and prayer and my speech and actions. Then I will know the fruit produced will be authentic and true and lead my children and others to You.
S: Psalm 63:7 "Because you are my helper, I sing for joy in the shadow of your wings.8 I cling to you; your strong right hand holds me securely"
O: David was saying that because God came to his assistance and provided for him, helped him that he could be happy. He saw himself as under the wings of a bird. Because of this there is a natural attraction, so we bond to God and he holds us tight.
A: Regardless of my circumstances, David's were not good, I must see myself as protected and helped by God. This picture will bring me joy and cause me to bond tightly with God.
P: Jesus, you help me more than I know. Help me today to see how you help me. Help me to meditate on your provision and guidance. Through this may I bond with you more tightly than before resulting in Joy.
