Open Heavens Teens 29th July 2021 Wednesday Message:

The moment a fellow surrenders his or her life to Jesus, he becomes liberated from sin. Not only that, he becomes a new fellow (2 Corinthians 5:17 ). However, the change is not automatic because what became new at the point of salvation is the soul; the body and the spirit remain. So, it is necessary to bear new fruits because new fruits show that an individual is indeed born again and has left his old ways. For instance, when a thief gives his life to Christ, he is expected to stop stealing which is now the new fruit.Galatians 5:22-23 a clearly lists the new fruits also known as the fruit of the Spirit expected of any Christian:

“But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy,peace,long-suffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance:”

Therefore,any one who exhibits a different fruit apart from those listed above is not yet born again. Also, note that the Bible passage says fruit and not fruits; this means a believer has to have it all. However, to bear this new fruit, one needs the Holy Spirit. This is because no one can by himself live a godly. So, the more a Christian yields to the Holy Spirit, the more he bears new fruit (change in character)

Point
To bear the fruit of the Spirit, yield completely to the Holy Spirit.
