Number 4

Practically, how do you "yield fruit" in a difficult season?
Number 4,
4. Continue to be in fellowship
Hebrews 10:25 "not forsaking our own assembling together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another; and all the more, as you see the day drawing near."
You will be in a pit of discouragement and depression if you are not meeting regularly for fellowship with your brothers and sisters!
1 Thessalonians 4:9-10 "Now as to the love of the brethren, you have no need for anyone to write to you, for you yourselves are taught by God to love one another; for indeed you do practice it toward all the brethren who are in all Macedonia. But we urge you, brethren, to excel still more,"
There is more love to excel in! We need to love each other more and more. This happens when we get together!

1 Corinthians 12:7 "Now you are Christ's body, and individually members of it."
We need each other. This is how God made it. We were created to function all together as one. If you are separated from this...you will not be very fruitful!

Proverbs 27:17 "Iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another."
Proverbs 11:25 NIV "A generous man will prosper; he who refreshes others will himself be refreshed."
We are dependant upon one another to be sharpened in the Lord. Don't be deceived by thinking you don't need to be sharpened by anyone!
When you put yourself out there to seek to refresh others...God will refresh you!
