The Fruit of the Spirit 9: Faithfulness Streamglobe Devotional

Galatians 5:22 (NET) But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulnessBefore Lanre gave his life to Christ, he was not a very honest person. When he was on campus, he had two girlfriends who didn’t know each other. They both believed he was their one and only. His word meant nothing to him. He only said the truth when it was convenient. But he never considered himself to be an unfaithful person.







After believing in the Lord Jesus and submitting to discipleship, he realized he could not continue in the old nature of sin and unfaithfulness. The more he understood the divine nature and sought to walk in it, the more repulsive lying and unfaithfulness were to him.







Because of this, his faith was strong, and his pursuit of the knowledge of God was very fruitful.







There are many believers whose spiritual endeavors are fruitless because they are faithless. An unfaithful person cannot be a faith-full person. Faith and faithfulness cannot be separated. Faith always produces faithfulness. Abraham was faithful to God because he had faith in God.







Go into today remembering that bearing the fruit of the Spirit means walking in the nature and character of God. God is faithful and so must we.—Abraham Damilola Arigi
