Our Mission Is To Do His Work

 As members of Christ's Body we are one with Him. Our Mission Is To Do His Work on earth and bring forth the fruit of righteousness. As branches on the true Vine we are likewise one with Christ, and are reminded many times that producing the fruit of righteousness it is not through our own efforts but only when we remain in HIM and as His Word abides in us. Christ spoke only those things that He heard from the Father. Christ only did those things that he heard from the Father and in everything Christ's prayer was translated into the desire of the Father - for He prayed: Thy will not Mine be done.
 It is not by personal performance, might or merit that we are 'fruitful.' It is not by our own effort and or strength that we produce the good works that glorify God. God is the one that not only plans our fruitfulness but He is also the One that causes us to be fruitful - as we abide in Him, and He in us; which in time will be translated into rewards for those that are faithful; at the judgement seat of Christ. We are to live and work and have our being in Christ.. as the old, egotistical self remains nailed to the cross.. and the beautiful mind of Christ is increasingly formed in us.
 The Lord Himself enables us to be fruitful as we carry out the good works that He Himself has prepared for us to do. It is God Who works in us, through the power of the Holy Spirit.  He enables us to produce good fruit to the glory of God. But the way to be fruitful in our Christian lives is to abide in Christ.. to abide in the Vine.. to abide in His love - to abide in ME and I in you. 
If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you.

Our United Prayer:
Heavenly Father, thank You that we have been saved by grace through faith in Christ.. but we realize that our thoughts need to be aligned to Your thoughts. Our hearts need to be reflecting Your heart.. our minds need to become the very mind of Christ.. so that our prayers we can say with honesty and faith.. Thy will not mine be done, as we pray Your will.. so that whatsoever we ask may be done to honor You. Thank You in Jesus name we Pray, AMEN.
