Is your repentance producing its fruits...?

Matthew 3:8, 10-11 NKJV

Therefore bear fruits worthy of repentance, And even now the ax is laid to the root of the trees. Therefore every tree which does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance, but He who is coming after me is mightier than I, whose sandals I am not worthy to carry. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire.

Shalom! Day #277. Do you know that a repented heart produces fruits that speaks of his or her repentance? Let's pray. Father, we do not want to going back to our vomit. But as we repent wholeheartedly, let our repentance produces fruits that speak about Your great and mighty works in our lives. In Jesus name we ask and pray, amen!

Our repentance must produce the fruits of repentance. Repentance must be from heart with all of heart. Repentance is not something we forced on a people. It must be done wholeheartedly. Nowadays, people seems to be les bothered of repentance. I have not sinned, so why should I repent? Are you familiar with this phrase? Repentance means a total turn over from sin, wicked ways wholeheartedly and never to return. If we repent and does not bear fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. No point repenting and keep sinning again and again.

Now what are the fruits of repentance?

1. True confession - psalms 32:5, 1 john 1:19
2. True faith - Matthew 21:31-32
3. Humility - James 4:20, 2 chronicles 7:14
4. Sincere prayer - Acts 8:20-23
5. True conversion - Acts 3:19
6. Self-abhorrence and brokenness - Job 42:6, psalms 52:17
7. True conviction of sin - john 8:45-47, proverbs 28:13

When you repent, and invite Him into your heart then He shall come and baptized you with Holy Spirit and fire. Water baptism is unto repentance,  but the baptism of the Holy Spirit and fire is to equip you  into His calling and purposes and His will. Repentance must produce it's fruit. When Jesus is in you, your life will never be the same again...! Never repent to repeat the same sin again! It's like a dog going back to its vomit.

Let this day be the day of the Lord!
