John15verse1-2, 8 ‘V1-I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman. V2-Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit. V8-Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples.

Dearly Beloved, I trust that this series of teachings on how to be a fruitful believer has been a great blessing to you. Trust me, bearing fruits is one of the important things that you ought to do as a believer. God even places a lot of emphasis on this; it should also be an integral part of your life. This is why I have been sharing with you some of the strategies for being fruitful and today, by his grace, I will be sharing another important principle of fruitfulness with you. So without much ado, let’s examine one of the principles.

3. By walking in love. If you truly want to be fruitful as a believer, you need to walk and stay in love. When I talk about love here, I mean God’s unconditional, selfless, and sacrificing love. Jud1v21: 1Jn3v18.
It will be difficult for you as a believer to be fruitful if you have bitterness, resentment, and unforgiveness in your life. Your love should not be a cliché, word or slogan but indeed and truth.

So what does it really mean to walk in love with your fellow brothers and sisters? It means:
-Not to allow anyone or anything to contaminate your love walk. Some of these things can be bitterness, anger, malice, hurts etc.
-Forgive those who have offended you. Eph4v31-32
-Forgive those you might have offended. Col3v13
-Forgive yourself
The bottom line is not to allow any of these negative vices to hinder you from bearing fruits.
-Being genuinely interested in the welfare and well-being of others. This is also one of the ways by which you show your love towards others. This was the same kind of spirit that Nehemiah exhibited towards the remnants in Jerusalem and the city itself. Neh2v10.
And those who exhibit this kind of attributes are also genuinely happy at other people’s success. Rom12v15

So, in a nutshell, your love walk is of great importance if you will really be fruitful as a believer. So it’s time to take your love walk to another level and as you walk this path, you will begin to notice a new realm of fruitfulness in Jesus name, amen. If you are receiving this, say a Big AMEN.
