Description

A Devotion for your drive into work: 


Are your daily decisions and influence yielding spiritual fruit—or is your life more like a dried-up vine, impressive in appearance but spiritually empty


Drawing on Ezekiel 15, John 15, Zechariah, and Lamentations, Pastor Brian Noble explains that only those “grafted” into the Vine (Jesus) produce fruit truly valuable to God; mere religious tradition, family heritage, or impressive works are not enough. God disciplines and prunes every unfruitful branch—our role is to abide in Christ, allow the Holy Spirit to cultivate gospel fruit, and keep faith even in discipline and hardship. The devotional calls believers to ask God what fruit He desires in each civic, workplace, and family interaction, surrender self-reliance, and seek opportunities each day to bless others and lead people to Jesus. The closing prayer affirms: “Lord, we are nothing—you are everything. Flow through us to produce fruit that leads others to You.”
