Week 3, Day 15: The Spirit’s Gift of Faith and Fruit of Righteousness
- Psalm 7:10 My defence is of God, which saveth the upright in heart.
- Insight: Psalm 7:10 emphasizes God’s defense and salvation for the upright. The Holy Spirit works in believers to cultivate the Fruit of Righteousness, enabling them to walk uprightly, even in challenging circumstances. Additionally, the Gift of Faith strengthens our confidence in God’s defense, empowering us to trust His protection and saving power.
The Spirit’s work in our lives brings both inward transformation and outward assurance. As He produces righteousness within us, He also equips us with the faith to stand firm against trials, relying on God’s justice and provision. This combination of Fruit and Gift ensures that we remain steady in our walk with Christ, even when faced with adversity.
- Prayer: Thank God for the Holy Spirit, who cultivates righteousness in your heart and grants the gift of faith to trust in His defense. Praise Him for His power to sustain and protect you through every challenge. Pray for the Spirit to deepen your faith and to produce the Fruit of Righteousness in your life, reflecting His presence in all you do.

Let's also pray this Biblical prayer during this third and final week of our fast:
Acts 4:29-30 And now, Lord, behold their threatenings: and grant unto thy servants, that with all boldness they may speak thy word, by stretching forth thine hand to heal; and that signs and wonders may be done by the name of thy holy child Jesus.
