We trace how abiding in Christ clarifies what we ask for and why some prayers are answered with confidence. Through John 15, 1 John, and Paul’s thorn, we show how dependence on the Spirit shapes desires, grows fruit, and keeps us from falling away.

• abiding defined as continuing in belief
• fruit as evidence of dependence on Christ
• prayer aligned to God’s will, not wishlists
• John 15 and 1 John on confident asking
• Paul’s thorn redefining strength and grace
• the Holy Spirit as counselor and teacher
• love, assurance, and perseverance through the Spirit
• chosen to bear fruit that remains
• guidance, patience, and joy under trial
