Fruit or Vegetable

March 9, 2022

When we live without bearing fruit, God may choose to allow crap come into our lives in order to fertilize us so that we can be useful to Him and bear fruit. He does not want us to be a vegetable and do nothing for Him, never changing or growing. When we abide in Him, we grow and change and our relationship with Him bears fruit in our lives that others can see.

The story of Gideon in the Bible shows us a picture of God’s great power as He stripped away time and again what would be attributed to men’s power and made it clear that it was God’s power that led Gideon to victory. As Christians, we have no reason to fear anything we face because God’s same power that was in Gideon resides in us through the Holy Spirit.

Often times it’s like opening a can of worms when we talk about pain and suffering we’ve gone through. Rather than keep these things hidden away, Jesus wants to use those worms to go fishing for other hurting people. When we allow God to use our pain to reach others, His purpose gets fulfilled in our lives.

It’s easy to get busy and distracted by doing a bunch of good things, but none of it can take away from the importance of being still and sitting with Jesus. Our relationship with Him is grown when we spend time with Him and it is out of that relationship that we should serve, not the other way around.

When we are not getting filled by God continually through reading His truth in Scripture, our spirits get in a place of deficit and we are vulnerable to attack. God has given us His Word so that we may take in His truth, apply it to our own lives and then share it with others. It is His truth that we can stand firmly in, but it does not help us unless we read it and understand it.

When we experience God’s forgiveness at great lengths, we find ourselves loving others all the more. The Bible encourages us to greet each other with a holy kiss, showing intimacy in a way that lets go of hatred, animosity, insecurities and indifference.

There are times when we feel as though our lives are so full of suffering that we cannot take anymore, and yet His mercy covers us and keeps us going throughout each day. Then there are times when His goodness is poured out over our lives in ways that we are so full we can’t help but spill it out and give to others.

God wants us to have constant communication with Him, through the good times and the bad. He wants a relationship with us so that He can speak to us and show us His will. When we abide in this relationship then our prayers start to match up with His will and we see His amazing answers.

While it’s not wrong to have doubts about our salvation, there is a time to get past our doubts and fully surrender to God in faith. We must acknowledge when we have doubts, face them and then move past them because continuing to live in doubt without moving into faith can be the most detrimental choice to choose.

The Bible teaches us that obtaining wisdom and applying it to our lives can keep us from having to learn from our mistakes. God urges us to seek after wisdom despite the cries of the world that beckon us to follow in its ways of destruction.

There is never a time when God is sleeping or distracted from caring for us. The same God that intricately designed and created the entire universe looks after each of us because of His great love for us.

About Richard Ellis

Authentic... Genuine... Sincere... This guy is the real deal. He loves God. He loves his wife Rebecca and his 3 daughters. He loves people. He loves his job. He loves Texas BBQ. He loves an occasional round of golf. And he loves the Dallas Cowboys (but don’t hold that against him!).

Richard grew up as a missionary kid in Brazil, coming back to the states to finish his education. He graduated from Baylor University in 1982 with a BA in Oral Communications, and earned his MDIV in 1985 from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, making him the sixth generation of pastors in his family. His early days of ministry included serving for three years as the Single Adults Pastor at the First Baptist Church of Dallas.

Then in 1997, Richard Ellis founded Reunion Church, a multi-cultural, multi-ethnic, non-denominational church in the heart of Dallas,Texas. Dallas needed a church like it. And it would need a pastor like Richard. So Reunion Church was born. And now the radio show and the website (www.RichardEllisTalks.com) join the Reunion Church community under the leadership of this guy. And we’re all the better for it!
