TOPIC: Brotherly Affection as a pillar of Fruitfulness.

MEMORY VERSE: Hebrews 12:14
[14]Follow peace with all men and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord:

FOCUS: Romans 12:10
[10]Be kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love; in honor preferring one another;

Brotherly affection refers to the deep emotional bond, love and compassion shared between Brothers, siblings or close friends.
It encompasses:

1. Unconditional love and acceptance
2. Mutual support and encouragement
3. Shared experiences and memories
4. Emotional connection and understanding
5. Loyalty and commitment.

Brotherly affection promotes fellowship and spiritual connection which is needed for fruitfulness because each person is like a branch of a tree.

LESSON: 2 Peter 1:7
[7]And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity.

Brotherly affection positively impacts fruitfulness in various ways.
These are some of the ways it affects our fruitfulness.

1. It affects our spiritual fruitfulness positively.
2. It fosters accountability and discipleship
3. Promotes unity and harmony(Psalm 133:1)
4. Enhances evangelism and outreaches
5. It promotes emotional fruitfulness
6. Relational fruitfulness
7. Personal fruitfulness

By cultivating brotherly affection, we create an environment conducive to spiritual, emotional, relational and personal growth, ultimately leading to increased fruitfulness.
Until we embrace unity our fruitfulness will be limited.

PERSONAL CONFESSION: I am a branch of God, and I love according to his commandment.

PERSONAL PRAYER: Father, help me to love my brethren as you would want me to do in the mighty name of Jesus Christ. Amen

FOOD FOR THOUGHT: Brothers make life’s journey more meaningful.

NOTE: Brotherly love is the greatest love of all.
