Rev 22:2 AMP   Through the middle of the broadway of the city; also, on either side of the river was the tree of life with its Twelve varieties of fruit , yielding each month its fresh crop; and the leaves of the tree were for the healing and the restoration of the nations. [Gen 2:9.]

John 15:16 amp  You have not chosen Me, but I have chosen you and I have appointed you [I have planted you], that you might go and bear fruit and keep on bearing, and that your fruit may be lasting [that it may remain, abide], so that whatever you ask the Father in My Name [as presenting all that I AM], He may give it to you.

Gal 5:22-26 AMP   But the fruit of the [Holy] Spirit [the work which His presence within accomplishes] is love, joy (gladness), peace, patience (an even temper, forbearance), kindness, goodness (benevolence), faithfulness, 23 Gentleness (meekness, humility), self-control (self-restraint, continence). Against such things there is no law [that can bring a charge].
24 And those who belong to Christ Jesus (the Messiah) have crucified the flesh (the godless human nature) with its passions and appetites and desires. 25 If we live by the [Holy] Spirit, let us also walk by the Spirit. [If by the Holy Spirit we have our life in God, let us go forward walking in line, our conduct controlled by the Spirit.]   26   Let us not become vainglorious and self-conceited, competitive and challenging and provoking and irritating to one another, envying and being jealous of one another.

“ My beloveds, I have breathed on you the Breath of Life.  I have saved you and brought you forth like gold, burning up in the fires of rejection, humiliation, failure, persecution, and affliction all SELF.  My goal has been FRUITFULNESS, for you will know those who are Mine by the LOVE they have for one another, by the patience and endurance, goodness and generosity towards one another.  Just as you have desired mercy, GIVE MERCY.  For you reap what you sow.   SO, if you want and desire mercy, and goodness, patience and kindness, then give this to others.  If you want self control , then show that to others. EXERCISE your thinking towards HEAVENLY THINGS.  EXERCISE your privilege that still exists to read MY WORD.  SANCTIFY your mind with the washing of the WORD.

My people are so satisfied with so little.  Do you not know that the things you value in this world are NOTHING compared to what I have for you ?  Do you want to exchange your life for the things in this world instead of the things in the next world ?  Do you really ?  For what I have even in this world to give to you FAR SURPASSES anything you have imagined.
All is available through the Kabod of My Presence.  Yet you settle for so little.  You are still warring with your flesh if this is so.  I want you to bear FRUIT that lasts.  I will pour out MY GLORY till there is a double fruitfulness in your lives that people will look and say, “ LOOK at how they LOVE one another !  LOOK at how GENEROUS they are with one another!  Look at how they treat the lowly as if feeling their pain ! LOOK at how they give up their own things to give to others, how they do not care for this world.”  

This is what I WANT for My BRIDE !  THIS IS WHAT I LONG FOR THE WORLD TO SEE !
They do not see that now, do they beloveds ?  They do not see LOVE.  They see competition, jealousies, defensiveness, adulteries, murder, pedophelia, all manners of idolatry, murder, and lust for money, greed, avarice even.  THAT IS NOT MY DOING.  THAT IS THE DEVIL’s doing !  He is enthroned within My church.  But I WILL BIRTH A NEW THING IN THIS HOUR, THAT WILL SWEEP CLEAN MY THRESHING FLOORS !    WHAT HAS LIGHT TO DO WITH DARKNESS ?  WHAT HAS RIGHTEOUSNESS TO DO WITH UNRIGHTEOUSNESS ?

Beloveds, there is more that I could say, but I want you to understand that I AM COMING to PURGE MY THRESHING FLOORS.  For I MUST have a pure and spotless bride !  I must have a TEMPLE that is a HOUSE OF PRAYER AND WORSHIP !  I must have a temple that is for and of ALL NATIONS.  I want to smell incense coming from the altars of My church.  I want to smell sweet perfume coming from My garden of reknown !    I LIFT UP, and I PUT DOWN, and in the days ensuing you will see many heads brought low, and others brought HIGH.  You will see changes that will bring about a FRUITFULNESS in MY BODY that will LAST !  For every tree that does not bear fruit will be CUT DOWN !

EVERY TREE THAT LIFTS UP MAN’S AGENDA WILL BE CUT DOWN AND REPLACED WITH A TREE THAT IS FAITHFUL TO ME – THAT LIFTS UP JESUS, INSTEAD OF SELF, FOR I AM A JEALOUS GOD, AND I WILL HAVE NO OTHER GODS BEFORE ME !

Those men who have underestimated ME, and MY OWN, will be brought low.  Those who are faithful, and HUMBLE will be exalted !  Beloveds, do not fear the things that lie ahead, for
I AM WITH YOU.  And My presence will be with you as NEVER BEFORE !  KNOW that I am with you, even when you can’t FEEL ME.  I AM THERE !  I will give you the instructions and the strength to go through whatever you need to , if you will but stop , look and listen to ME.   Lay aside busyness, and entertainment, and COME INTO MY ARMS.  LET ME LOVE on you and give you what you need to get through.  RELY ON MY WISDOM.  RELY ON MY POWER.  RELY ON ME, FOR I AM THE GOD OF WONDERS !  NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE WITH ME.  BE FILLED WITH THE FULLNESS OF JOY IN MY PRESENCE.  BE FILLED BELOVEDS ! “

Hag 2:6-9 NKJV   "For thus says the LORD of hosts: 'Once more (it is a little while) I will shake heaven and earth, the sea and dry land; 7 and I will shake all nations, and they shall come to the Desire of All Nations, and I will fill this temple with glory,' says the LORD of hosts. 8'The silver is Mine, and the gold is Mine,' says the LORD of hosts. 9'The glory of this latter temple shall be greater than the former,' says the LORD of hosts. 'And in this place I will give peace,' says the LORD of hosts."
