Staying with God produces results
John 15:4 (NIV) - Remain in me, as I also remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me.
Stay where God is. Stay with Him.
John 15 verse 4 explains that God is the source of power that produces in you results. Results of changed life, changed character, answered prayers, etc.
Perhaps it's time to let go of all your self conjured performances and rather..................allow God to empower you?
This is something that we are not conscious of. Because it does not originate from us therefore it comes not from us.
When it happens, it's akin to this bible verse.
Matthew 25:37-39 (NIV) - 37“ Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? 38 When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? 39 When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?’
These righteous did not even know they did all the things that glorified God.
Stay humble, stay patience when we don't see results but remain in faith.
I've just witnessed a testimony of a Man of God who has done everything expected of a Christian and for 2 years there was nothing. But he remain in faith. After that 2 years something happened and his ministry was filled with God's miracles on weekly basis.
Sometime we need to be very patience, God does test us to see if we will remain faithful.
In the waiting period, love others, help others. Don't wallow in self pity. Encourage others.
God always look out for his own. And you are His.
God Bless.
