Your decision will produce good or bad fruit

Your choice or decision in any given situation will produce an action and thus produce another reaction, and perhaps another reaction and so forth. If your choice or decision is good and according to God's will, then you will produce good fruit. But if your choice or decision is selfish, wrong, or fleshy, then it will produce bad fruit.

There will be a chain reaction of that particular fruit that continues to be produced. If it is good fruit, then good fruit will continue to be bore. But if it is bad fruit, then bad fruit will continue to be bore.

You must examine your lives and determine what is occurring around your life. What type of fruit is being produced in your life and circumstances? If you are experiencing continued bad fruit, then you must ask God where that point of decision or choice was made. Maybe it was choices and/or decisions. You will probably have to repent. Let HIM show you.

When King David made a bad decision to commit murder and adultery, he repented when the prophet came and warned him. God forgave him but there were consequences. We may still face and experience consequences for making bad decisions. King David as part of his judgment lost his baby son. His daughter Tamar was raped and one of his sons were killed by another son, Absalom. Then he lost the kingdom to his son Absalom. King David was not a baby believer. He was mature and as a result had to face the consequences.

His decision was bad fruit and thus created more bad fruit. But as King David experienced his judgment and consequences, it was still his test regardless. He was being tested. Although bad fruit were being produced, King David turned and made choices and decisions to show good fruit after he had repented. He had spared Shamei who had cursed him during his flee from Jerusalem. Moreover, King David was not looking to kill Absalom. He wanted him spared for he loved him much.

If you make choices and decisions now that are of the fruit of the Holy Spirit, then you will experience the further actions and reactions of the same nature. If you show mercy, will you not be shown mercy? If you show kindness, will you not be shown kindness? We reap what we sow.

Matthew 5:7 (NLT) God blesses those who are merciful, for they will be shown mercy.

Gal 5:19-24 When you follow the desires of your sinful nature, the results are very clear: sexual immorality, impurity, lustful pleasures, 20 idolatry, sorcery, hostility, quarreling, jealousy, outbursts of anger, selfish ambition, dissension, division, 21 envy, drunkenness, wild parties, and other sins like these. Let me tell you again, as I have before, that anyone living that sort of life will not inherit the Kingdom of God.
22 But the Holy Spirit produces this kind of fruit in our lives: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, and self-control. There is no law against these things!24 Those who belong to Christ Jesus have nailed the passions and desires of their sinful nature to his cross and crucified them there. 25 Since we are living by the Spirit, let us follow the Spirit’s leading in every part of our lives. 26 Let us not become conceited, or provoke one another, or be jealous of one another.
