Grow In Faith
The Fruit of the Spirit Galatians Pt. 24
In this week's study of Galatians 5:22-26, we examine the beautiful fruit of the Spirit—the evidence of God's transformative work in our lives. Unlike the "acts of the flesh," these qualities reflect Christ's character growing within us.
📖 Key Passage:
"But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control." —Galatians 5:22-23
🔹 Key Insights:
✔️ Fruit (singular), not "fruits"—The Spirit produces all these qualities together, not just a few.
✔️ Growth takes time—Like an apple tree, spiritual maturity doesn't happen overnight.
✔️ A changed heart, not just behavior—True transformation goes deeper than willpower.
✔️ Practical steps for growth—How to cultivate the Spirit's work in areas like anger (and beyond).
💡 Reflection Questions:
- Which of these qualities do you see the Spirit developing in you?
- Where do you sense God calling you to deeper growth?
