Righteousness and Communication

John 15:16 You did not choose Me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should remain, that whatever you ask the Father in My name He may give you. 

 Jesus is laying down some instructions for petitions here. You are not to pray to Jesus, but to the Father in the name of Jesus, however, praise and worship can be given to Jesus.  Answers to your needs will be met on the basis of divine faith and as you are a fruit producing believer.  Many may be operating in divine faith, but lack any fruit. 

The four types of fruit are:  

  • Righteousness: Philippians 1:11 
  • Spirit: Galatians 5:22-23  
  • Salvation: Romans 1:13  
  • Your lips - praise: Hebrews 13:15.
