Where did marriage originate?

A marriage is a commitment to God and your spouse. It should only be entered into by a man and a woman who share a common faith. God established marriage at Eden and has blessed it to this day.

"...And as the bridegroom rejoices over the bride, so shall your God rejoice over you." – Isaiah 62:5, NKJV

Fruitful Believers in Christ

Seeing in the distance a fig tree in leaf, he went to find out if it had any fruit. Mark 11:13

Cindy was excited for her new job in a nonprofit company. What an opportunity to make a difference! She soon discovered her coworkers didn’t share her enthusiasm. They mocked the company’s mission and made excuses for their poor performance as they looked elsewhere for more lucrative positions. Cindy wished she’d never applied for this job. What looked great from afar was disappointing up close.

This was Jesus’ problem with the fig tree mentioned in today’s story (Mark 11:13). It was early in the season, yet the tree’s leaves signaled it might have early figs. Nope. The tree had sprouted leaves, but it hadn’t yet produced fruit. Disappointed, Jesus cursed the tree, “May no one ever eat fruit from you again” (v. 14). By the next morning the tree had entirely withered (v. 20).

Christ once fasted forty days, so He knew how to go without food. Cursing the fig tree was not about His appetite. It was an object lesson. The tree represented Israel, which had the trappings of true religion but had lost the point. They were about to kill their Messiah, the Son of God. How more barren could they be?

We may look good from afar, but Jesus comes near, looking for fruit that only His Spirit can produce. Our fruit need not be spectacular. But it must be supernatural, such as love, joy, and peace in hard times (Galatians 5:22). Relying on the Spirit, we can bear fruit even then for Jesus.

What fruit do others see in you? How might you be more fruitful?

Holy Spirit, prune me so I might bear more fruit.
