John 15: 7 If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you.

Abide – The Greek word used here is “meno” It means to stay in a given place, state, or expectancy – To abide, continue, dwell, endure, be present, remain, stand, tarry for.

IF – If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you

We are to abide in Jesus. We are to abide in the True Vine. The Word is to abide in us. We are to abide in His Love. Jesus will abide in us. When we abide in the True Vine we are one.

If we abide in Him without the Word abiding in us we become a weak and diseased branch and have to be pruned, purged, or cut-off.

We are to abide in Him and His Word is to abide in us. Both are by our choice.

The Abiding Word! It is a condition of the heart.

The abiding Word always brings forth fruit.

What hinders or prevents the Word from abiding and being fruitful? A major cause and possibly #1 cause is our lack of walking the love walk. Faith works by Love

Galatians 5: 6 (KJV) … faith which worketh by love.
(Amplified Bible) … faith activated and energized and expressed and working through love.

If we are not walking in love our faith will not work.
Without our faith the Word cannot be activated.
Without our faith the Word will be dormant and unable to bring forth life or fruit.
