“You have felt the pain of pruning. I have removed people, places, and mindsets that have been stumbling blocks to your spiritual growth. For every branch I have pruned becomes even more fruitful,” says the Spirit of the Lord.
“I am refining you to bring you clarity, and to reveal who you really trust and follow. The pain of pruning will not be wasted. It has produced a deeper dependence on Me, increased your trust, and strengthened your faith in Me.
You have desired a wider reach, a reach that comes from the maturity of the branch. To walk in righteous boldness, to speak with purity, truth and power. Carrying the weight of My glory cannot be done by branches that aren’t mature. Show now the fruit that comes from remaining in Me and I in you.”
Activation:
Ask the Lord to show you what you look like as His branch in the spirit. Ask Him what fruit you are producing well. Ask the Lord to show you if there are any fruit not growing and if so, why. Allow space for the Lord to show you what needs to be cut off or pruned back to allow for spiritual maturity.
Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit, He takes away; and every branch that continues to bear fruit, He [repeatedly] prunes, so that it will bear more fruit [even richer and finer fruit].
John 15:2 (AMP)
