Be Fruitful by Apostle Joshua Selman
Acts 20:32 KJV
The word of his (God’s) grace that is able to:
- Build you up
- Deliver to you
God gives gifts according to his riches. There is nothing God gives a man that is small, so when God delays in giving you it’s because he is allowing your capacity to be able to retain.
How forcible are right words! But what doth your arguing reprove? – Job 6:25 KJV

Why do we need to be fruitful?
- The Father is glorified when all saints bear fruits, all kinds of fruits. John 15:8 KJV
- Bearing fruits also inspires and encourages you, and your spiritual lives also continue to grow. Your life is producing fruits.
- Our fruitfulness is a message to the world that God is true, our fruitfulness is a message that causes men to believe in God. John 1:6-7 KJV, Galatians 1:24 KJV
Results are a language. It is a language that speaks to creation about the faithfulness of God, it is a language that attracts creation to the one true God the source of all lifting. God is glorified in my fruitfulness. - Fruitfulness makes your words heavy, when you have results your words are worth believing.
Between your desire and the manifestation, there are spiritual systems that connect them

- They Heard and received the word with Joy Luke 8:13 KJV
- They Heard and took action. Luke 8:14 KJV
