I am telling you the truth: a grain of wheat remains no more than a single grain unless it is dropped into the ground and dies. If it does die, then it produces many grains. John 12:24
Jesus had these 12 disciples who went everywhere with Him and was leaning on Him. Jesus prophesied about His death and the early church. After Jesus death, the disciples were realised, preaching in Jesus name, many thousands of people being lead to knowing Him. In simple ways, when we are lead to giving areas of our life up for Jesus, what He has in mind is fruitfulness in the Spirit. Instead of holding on to what He is calling us to lay down, we could give Him everything and see a great multiplication of all the Lord wants to do in our lives. Whatever you do for Jesus is always worthwhile. In our surrendered lives, there is always heavenly blessing.
“Therefore, my beloved brothers and sisters, be steadfast, immovable, always excelling in the work of the Lord [always doing your best and doing more than is needed], being continually aware that your labor [even to the point of exhaustion] in the Lord is not futile nor wasted [it is never without purpose].” 1 Corinthians 15:58 Is always about Jesus being more. “He must become greater; I must become less.” John 3:30
How has the Lord multiplied in your life as you have given your all for Him?
When is a great time for you to have precious moments with Jesus, resulting in fruitfulness.
Lord Jesus, praise you for all you have done for us all. Show me areas of my life to give you, that you may increase and I may decrease.
