J12

"If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye
will, and it shall be done unto you. Herein is my Father glorified, that
ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples." John 15:7-8

This is a wonderful prayer promise. However, there is a condition: "If
ye abide in me, and my words abide in you" means to be obedient to Him.
Then we will have effectual prayer. The whole purpose of the abiding and
of the praying is that the Father may have glory. This eliminates prayer
for selfish reasons. The issue is fruit-bearing. God is glorified when
we do bear fruit. The average Christian, however, thinks that bearing
much fruit is entirely out of the question and is willing to live on a
low plane hoping to produce just a little fruit. We must remember that
the Lord wants us to produce much fruit! God Bless You.

If we just give God the little that we have, we can trust Him to make it
go around.
