‘Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth
fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may
give it to you.’
INTRODUCTION
In every generation, God chooses people for His assignment, He chose Moses to lead the children of
Israel out of Egypt. He chose Joshua to lead the children of Israel into the promised land that the Lord
divided to them. He chose Paul to reveal the mysteries of Christ to the Gentiles. However, in this
generation, He has chosen you to bear fruits and your fruits should abide.
BLESSINGS OF FRUIT-BEARING
1. A fruit bearer will access a strange level of wisdom that will produce supernatural &
extraordinary results. Prov. 11:30, Prov. 4:7.
2. A fruit bearer will shine as a star forever, stardom is the destiny of a fruit bearer.
Dan. 12:3, Deut. 28:13, Math 5:14.
3. A fruit bearer has the devils and demons subject to him, he has control over the demons and
powers of darkness. Lk. 10:17

CONCLUSION
Realise, you are created to bear fruits, you are empowered by God’s Spirit to do it and as you go ahead,
there are benefits in bearing fruit.
Start today and you will discover your prayer points will suddenly become testimonies as a result of
your obedience.
However, before you can become a fruit bearer, you must be a fruit. We have discovered from the
teaching that fruits are souls. You need to give your life to Jesus now so you can become a fruit and bear
fruits.

To understand the function of a machine, we need to understand the intentions of the manufacturer that
necessitates the manufacturing of the machine. The word of God is the mind of God that reveals to us
the intentions of the Father.
The word of God reveals to us that we are blessed with all spiritual blessings Eph. 1:3. However, we
need to access these blessings in our day-to-day lives. All over the scripture, supernatural blessings are
scattered everywhere but we need to know how to access these benefits and blessings.

CONCLUSION.
The blessings are there waiting for you to take possession but there is a password to accessing them
which is ‘Fruit Bearing’. You can start today, and you will suddenly become a carrier of these
supernatural blessings. However, only labourers in God’s vineyard are entitled to wages (supernatural
blessings) from God. 1Tim. 5:18, Jn. 4:35-36. If you are not a labourer (fruit bearer) you are not entitled
to supernatural blessings. To access these supernatural blessings, you need to give your life to Christ.
By this, you can now become a labourer in his vineyard so you can access the blessings.

PRAYERS

presence all the days of my life.

4. Father, as I become a fruit bearer from today, I enjoy supernatural provisions.

Many people claim to pray, some get answers to their prayers, and some don’t get answers, this is not
because God is not a prayer answering God but because they didn’t pray accurately
Jam. 4:3. God is a prayer answering God.
1 Jn. 5:14. If we pray according to God’s will, He hears us. So, it means if He doesn’t hear us, we are
not praying according to His will.
The scripture is the book that reveals the will of God to us. From our text, we see that if we bear fruit
and our fruits abide then, whatever we ask God, He will hear us and answer us.
Bearing fruit is great but establishing your fruit is far more important. It is the will of God that our
fruits abide.
For your fruits to abide, means to be established in Christ and in Church, to stay connected. Jn. 15:16.
3. They need to be in a family of faith that strengthens them. 1 Cor. 12: 20-25
CONCLUSION
Only those who are fruits and are abiding can bear abiding fruits, they are the ones that can get
answers to their prayers. God doesn’t hear the prayer of a sinner. Jn. 9:3
For your prayers to be answered, you need to accept Jesus now.

TOPIC - FRUITFULNESS
TEXTS: Gen. 1:28, Jn.15: 1-8
INTRODUCTION
Throughout the Bible, the Lord gave commands to humanity. One of the first commands, He gave at
least twice in the Book of Genesis was that He commanded mankind through Adam and Eve: “…Be
fruitful and multiply…” Gen. 1:28. After flooding the earth, the Lord repeated to Noah, his sons, and
his sons’ sons: “And you, be ye fruitful, and multiply; bring forth abundantly in the earth, and multiply
therein.” Gen. 9:7. Just to confirm that it is His everlasting plan, He repeated this command even more
forcefully through Jesus in the book of John (Jn 15:2). It is therefore obvious that fruitfulness was
commanded by God to every Christian across all generations. Jesus even states that it is not just a one-
time fruitfulness that is expected of us, but much fruits that abide.
RESULTS OF UNFRUITFULNESS
1. God frowns at it. God is grieved. Jer. 2:21, Isa. 5:1-4,7
2. Walking under closed heavens. Isa. 5:6,7
3. Enlargement of hell. Isa. 5:11-14
4. Uncleanable blood on our hands. Ezk. 3:18,20
CONCLUSION
This is not a time to be at ease in Zion. Have you genuinely met with the Lord? Are you walking daily
in Him? Are the fruits of your repentance and faith visible in your life? Have you started taking the
commanded steps to produce more saved souls like you to the glory of God and for the expansion of the
Church here on earth and in heaven?

INTRODUCTION
The above shows the possibility of being saved and yet being unfruitful. God has blessed us and
empowered us with His Spirit to live a godly lifestyle and to make disciples in all nations starting from
where we are right now.
CONCLUSION
You and I are the vehicles God uses to bring sinners into His Kingdom. We must therefore be deliberate
in bringing the unsaved into the Kingdom or they will be lost forever.

INTRODUCTION.
“The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life, and he that winneth souls is wise.” Pro. 11:30
And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to
righteousness as the stars forever and ever. Dan. 12:3
Many Christians hear the above scriptures all the time and they even preach it; yet there are only very
few involved in this aspect of fruit-bearing. The few that do are not committed to much fruits. So we
ask what could possibly be the problem?
In our study today, we will look at some of the obstacles and also at the obligations of bearing fruits
which will motivate us to commit ourselves to this forgotten business of God.
CONCLUSION
We have been chosen from eternity (Eph. 1:4), by the Lord of Glory, and set aside to the vocation of
winning the lost (Eph. 2:10). Are we fulfilling that high purpose for which the Lord has saved us? He
has ordained that we should ’Go and bring forth fruit…’ - that is, produce results! 2 Cor. 5:14-15&20,
Ezk. 33:7-8, Dan. 12:3, Isa. 53:11

INTRODUCTION.
We are still looking at fruits here in the context of souls won through our soul-winning activities. You
cannot go on to having much fruits if you don’t work at making sure that the souls abide as you win
them. They cannot stand on their own at birth. This was the reason why Apostle Paul said he kept
travailing for his new converts until they grow into Christlikeness.
CONCLUSION
There is a need for self-examination and repentance for souls we have allowed to slip back into
ungodliness due to lack of proper follow-up. We must henceforth travail like Apostle Paul not only until
all those around us are reached for Christ but until Christ is formed in them.

INTRODUCTION.
The early church in the book of Acts was evangelical and no wonder God kept adding to the church
daily. Let’s ask ourselves a sincere question- if the church today had taken the task of soul winning the
way the early church did, how far would we have gone in winning the world for Christ?’ I am sure we
would have recorded greater success.
Brethren, the attitude of some churches towards this urgent and most noble task indicates they are
ignorant of certain facts:
❖ That the more we delay in reaching the unsaved the harder it becomes in reaching them.
❖ That the territory we don’t take for Christ is taking over by darkness.
❖ That when an unsaved person dies without the opportunity to hear the gospel he/she is lost
forever.
❖ That this gospel of the Kingdom must be preached in all nations as a witness to them before the
Lord can return.
Therefore, in this study, we shall be considering the necessary ingredients and practices of a fruitful
church.
4. They are prepared to be very patient as people grow and invest a serious amount of time in
helping people become disciples. Heb. 13:2
5. They operate a church without walls. Matt. 22:9-11; They take the church to the people. Acts
2:46
6. Radical Hospitality. Acts 2:44&45
7. Constantly extending God’s invitations to social programs. Matt. 22:8-9.
8. Welcome strangers. Deu. 10:19, Heb. 13:2, Matt. 25:40, Matt. 18:5; Warm and non-
condemning welcome. Rom. 15:7, Lk. 19:5-10
9. Timely and planned follow-ups. Acts 14:21
10. A chain of discipleship program. Acts 2:42, Matt. 28:18,19
Have a definite plan for beginning discipleship and pair them with people who can most likely
have the best influence on them and who can devote the best amount of time.
CONCLUSION
Everything we do in the church should have behind it the underlying passion to see sinners saved and
the saved grow up to the full measure of Christ. Lk 19:10; Eph. 4:11-14.

Jesus’ teachings reveal the fact that not every branch of a tree produces fruits even if all the branches
are exposed to the same possibilities. However, we cannot overemphasize the imminent expectation of
the husbandman who has made every resource for productivity. Jesus resorted to using this metaphor to
establish the mind of God and his purposes in the life of every believer/church. Jesus was careful to tell
us what awaits the believers that bear no fruits and the blessings which await those who do. Hence, we
need the help of God in the place of prayer.

THEME: MUCH FRUITS (PART 2)
BIBLE TEXT: MARK 11:12-14
You would have thought that a tree which had enough leaves would be fruitful, but it was not. This
is a good description of the life of any Believer who has tasted the grace of God and he/she is
enjoying His goodness but not bringing joy to Him through soul-winning. What do we think brings
heaven the greatest Joy if not that sinners come to accept Jesus Christ as their personal Lord and
Saviour? God has saved and blessed us but the question to ask ourselves is “How has all of God’s
goodness in our lives resulted in the expansion of his kingdom?” The Lord must help us tonight!

Theme: Much Fruits (Part 3)
Text: Matt. 13:1-8, 24-30
Brethren, the above parable teaches certain truths about effective and productive evangelism. If our
efforts towards bringing sinners to God will not end in futility, then we must intercede for the unsaved
and also against the operations of the kingdom of darkness that have kept them bound in ignorance and
