Living A Fruitful Life In Recovery

Monday June 22, 2020

All the promises of God are for us who have given our will and life over to the care of God.  God will be faithful to do what He has said if we are faithful to do our part and follow His principles in all our affairs.  In order to follow God’s principles, we need through prayer and meditation to improve our conscious contact with God.  Daily reading of the Bible and praying to our Heavenly Father in the name of Jesus will be the soil in which we can grow in our faith and be strengthened to carry this message to others.
Jesus said, “I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener. He cuts off every branch of mine that does not produce fruit. He also trims every branch that produces fruit to prepare it to produce even more. I am the vine, and you are the branches. If you stay joined to me, and I to you, you will produce plenty of fruit. But separated from me you won’t be able to do anything.  (John 15:1-2, 5 ERV)

Jesus is the vine and through faith in Him we have been given everything we need to live a meaningful, purposeful life devoted to God, no matter how long we wandered in addiction. We are the branches and as we remain in the vine we will grow in our life and recovery and bear fruit.  When a baby is born it has everything it needs to be a human but it must be fed and cared for by its caregivers if it is to grow up to be a healthy adult.  When we are born again we have everything we need to live a life devoted to God, but if we are to live a fruitful life we must be fed by the Scriptures, cared for by our Heavenly Father, and supported by the experience , strength and hope of the people God gives us.



His divine power has given us everything we need for a godly life through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness. (2 Peter 1:3 NIV)

The more we know about Jesus, the more we will understand the faithful promises of God.



Prayer: Lord Jesus, I am thankful that everything for a life devoted to God has been given to me through You.  Please help me bear much fruit. Amen
