Manage episode 322734410 series 2289085
Do you act like Jesus? In this message, Pastor Jamie Nunnally shares how the fruit of the Spirit can help.
What is the fruit of the Spirit?
The fruit of the Spirit are the various positive character traits displayed in the life of a believer, that are the result of an ongoing, healthy relationship with God.
The Fruit of the Spirit
Galatians 5:22-23 “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law.”
You can act like Jesus
Christian maturity is not a matter of self-help, but self-death. As we die to ourselves, He lives in us and through us.
Galatians 2:20 “I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me.”
Crucifixion kills you. Don’t try to correct what God is trying to kill. Don’t try to civilize what God is wanting to crucify.
Fruit that helps us act like Jesus:
1. Love.
Love is affection expressed through action, and love does what is best for the other person.
"Agape" – service or sacrifice
John 15:13
1 Corinthians 13:4-7
You can only give what you’ve got, and God is how you get agape.
2. Joy.
Joy is a sense of internal gladness that is unaffected by external circumstances.
Happiness is a reaction to an outside event;. Joy is response to an inside satisfaction.
Nehemiah 8:10
Your goal is not to increase your joy, but to acquire His joy.
Psalm 16:11
My joy doesn’t come from “them”- it comes from Him.
3. Peace.
Peace is the state of inner serenity that is unaffected by external circumstances.
Peace is not the absence of problems but the learned skill of remaining unaffected by them.
John 16:33
Life is uncertain but God’s peace is unceasing.
John 14:27
Are you bearing the fruit of the Spirit?
