In responding to the call of God to bear good fruits, we must be aware  of the things that may cause us to not bear fruit in the Lord  (barrenness).

One great hindrance to bearing fruit in the Lord is the lack of desire  or being 'asleep' to the requirements of the spiritual life. Without  this desire we cannot bear any fruit in the Lord.

Akin to this, is a lack of sound doctrine on how to pursue the spiritual  life. We must be zealous in acquiring divine wisdom through much study  of sound doctrine, and we must spend a lot of time doing this.

In this message, we find out the Lord's processes in making us fruitful  in Him and appreciate our responsibility in not only having the right  desire but also to put into practise the instructions we receive through  sound doctrine.
