Does God allow or bring pain into our lives for our benefit? In this session, Jeremy briefly discusses when God prunes a believer to increase their productive spiritual life. Sometimes we have old habits, ideas, attitudes, or doctrines that are preventing us from growing and serving Him even better; and these need to be cut out of our life. Other times we have fallen into a routine and the passion is no longer present; and God needs to remove unfruitful parts of our lives that are no longer reliant upon Him. The pain of pruning is real, but its benefits are far greater than the pain.
