15 “I am the true vine, and My Father is the vinedresser. 2 Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit He takes away; and every branch that bears fruit He prunes, that it may bear more fruit. 3 You are already clean because of the word which I have spoken to you.- John 15:1-3
- As ministry/mission frontliners, we must be rooted in Him in order to bear fruit for God. The only way to bear genuine fruit in the kingdom of God is to be firmly rooted and rightly connected to Christ as our source.
- Prayers
- So let us pray for complete dependence and constant connection to Christ, in various places that HE has planted us to serve HIM.
- Prayers
- We need to have a close connection with the Father who cultivates and manages the vine. The branch needs to be surrendered, yielded to the vine dresser to be able to bring forth fruit.
- Prayers
- Let us pray that we will be in right relationship with the Father, Son and the Holy Spirit, that we will be yielded and aligned with Him.
- Let us pray for a vibrant, living relationship with the Father, Son and Holy Spirit, and that we will promptly respond to the Holy Spirit’s direction & instruction so we may bear fruit for Him.

- Pray that His sustaining grace will keep us flourishing and fruitful in all our respective frontlines.
- Prayers
- Every branch that does not bear fruit He takes away (John 15:2).
- Prayers
- Let us pray that we will be a branch that bears fruit in the various frontlines that God has placed us.
- That the Holy Spirit would help us to live our lives attached to Him.
- Every branch that bears fruit, He prunes. If we are not pruned, we will produce unproductive growth, and so for maximum fruitfulness, extensive pruning is essential.
- Let us pray that we will yield ourselves to God the Vinedresser to be pruned.
- That the Holy Spirit may perform unhindered, the necessary transforming work within our heart, so that we may bring forth acceptable fruit at the proper time.
- Prayers
- The word of God is a cleansing agent. It inspires Holiness, it promotes growth, and it reveals power for victory. As Jesus applied the words God gave Him to the lives of the disciples, they underwent a pruning process that enabled them for effective service.
- Prayers
- Let us pray that the Lord will sanctify us, wash us and cleanse us with the washing of water by the word so that we may be a fruitful member of the Body of Christ – Ephesians 5:26.

- Let us pray that in our “marketplace” / mission field, wherever God has planted us:
- Prayers

- That as we yield to the Holy Spirit, HE will work through us and in us as HE so wish, so that there may be an abundant spiritual harvest to the glory of His name.
- That the Holy Spirit will produce in us the fruit of love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. May His character be formed in us, that we may reflect His grace and truth to the world around us.
- Prayers

Romans 8:29 states, “For those whom He foreknew He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, in order that He might be the firstborn among many brothers“. We have been divinely programmed to be like Jesus, that is, to be fruitful like Him. The Father had preloaded in us the software for fruitfulness.
