Het Evangelie van Lukas 6:43

Vance K. Jackson leads readers in this powerful heart transforming devotional. Let God examine the ground of your heart. Choose to submit to His Word and Counsel. Only God can intimately understand, weigh and judge the heart of man. Only His Word can sift through the intentions and motives of the heart. Let go of the past and let God heal you. Let His Word every aspect of your heart.

At the core of it, discipleship is taking care of and tending all the things Jesus commanded us. Yet how can we know what to do if we don't know His words? That is why we're exploring all of Jesus' words across the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. Each day includes a Bible narration from Ps Mark Varughese of the words of Jesus. NOTE: the translation used in the narration is the New King James Version.

In this second devotion on the fruit of transformation, we continue our deep dive into how an abiding relationship with Christ produces Kingdom fruit. You will be challenged to examine your own life and determine if you do a lot of religious activity for your own good, or if you are humbly broken before God and allow Him to change you into His image. If you have not done the first devotion, you may want to go back and do that one first.

The Bible talks a lot about "growing" - learning more about Jesus, following him more closely, obeying him more naturally, and becoming more like him in our attitudes and actions. "Grow: Becoming More Like Jesus" includes verses about seeds, roots, plants, trees, and fruit, all great images for thinking about what it means to live for Jesus.
