UPWARD FRUIT
The sound of Newness and Forward rings fresh in my ear!
Rain is a forerunner of new growth. As the rain fall in the natural and causes the hidden seed that was embedded to sprout, likewise when the rain of the Spirit falls, it will cause that which was hidden for so long to sprout and prove that the soil is not barren!
We consider a piece of ground and glance over it with a careless eye, observing nothing. The next moment we take a breath and call it barren because we see nothing! In the life of those around you, take great care when you look over the fields of their lives. Even though you may glance at the nothingness, there may be seed deeply embedded that was just waiting for the rain. Rain has the power to reveal what was hidden for many dry seasons.
In 2 KINGS 19:29-30 Hezekiah speaks of a sign. He breaks up the produce after rain in a few categories:
There is fruit in our lives that grows of itself, needs no assistance;
There is fruit that comes voluntarily and needs no coaxing or begging;
There is fruit that needs effort put in and contribution on your part.
Irrespective what is required to have the fruit manifest in our lives, we need the key ingredient which is RAIN!
In this awesome portion of scripture the key of fruit is explained!
First the root goes downward BEFORE the fruit goes upward!
At times we can’t understand the downward, but I want you to know that there is an upward afterward!
You were not born be caught in the downward forever but God has designed the upward as well.
Take heart, take courage, you are on the upward!
