THE FRUIT OF THE HOLY SPIRIT
Gal. 5:22-23
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,
 23Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.
“The fruit of the spirit is love.” Only as we live in love can we fulfill the will of God in our lives. The believer must become love inspired, love mastered and love driven.
II Cor. 5:14 For the love of Christ constraineth us; because we thus judge, that if one died for all, then were all dead:
Without the fruit of the spirit, we are just a religious noise.
I Cor. 13:1 Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.
The fruit of the spirit is love, and it is manifested in joy, peace, long-suffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance:
Joy is love’s strength.
Peace is love’s security.
Longsuffering is love’s patience.
Gentleness is love’s conduct.
Goodness is love’s character.
Faith is love’s confidence.
Meekness is love’s humility.
Temperance is love’s victory.
AGAINST SUCH THERE IS NO LAW
A Holy Spirit controlled person needs no law to cause him to live a righteous life. The secret of a Spirit controlled life is found in Rom 12:1-2:
 1I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.
 2And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
Put your all on the altar and the Holy Spirit will fill your heart with the love of God.
Rom. 5:5 And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us. (Some notes are from Porter Barrington The Christian Life studies)
I pray you use the Fruit of the Spirit in all your endeavors in life. What a blessing you will receive as you continue your walk with the Lord.

REMEMBER

“If we confess our sins he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” 1John 1:9
