They shall still bring forth fruit
in old age; they shall be fat and
flourishing.
(Psalm 92:14)
For ye shall go out
with joy, and be led forth with
peace: the mountains and the hills
shall break forth before you into
singing, and all the trees of the
field shall clap their hands. Instead of the thorn
shall come up the fir tree, and
instead of the brier shall come up
the myrtle tree: and it shall be
to the LORD for a name, for an
everlasting sign that shall not be
cut off.
(Isaiah 55:12,13)
They shall come and sing in the
height of Zion, and shall flow
together to the goodness of the
LORD, for wheat, and for wine, and
for oil, and for the young of the
flock and of the herd: and their
soul shall be as a watered garden;
and they shall not sorrow any more
at all.
(Jeremiah 31:12)
And they that be wise
shall shine as the brightness of
the firmament; and they that turn
many to righteousness as the stars
for ever and ever.
(Daniel 12:3)
I will be as the dew unto Israel:
he shall grow as the lily, and
cast forth his roots as Lebanon. I
am like a green fir tree. From me
is thy fruit found.
(Hosea 14:5,8)
Beware of false
prophets, which come to you in
sheep's clothing, but inwardly
they are ravening wolves. Ye shall know them by
their fruits. Do men gather grapes
of thorns, or figs of thistles? Even so every good tree
bringeth forth good fruit; but a
corrupt tree bringeth forth evil
fruit. A good tree cannot
bring forth evil fruit, neither
can a corrupt tree bring forth
good fruit. Every tree that
bringeth not forth good fruit is
hewn down, and cast into the fire. Wherefore by their
fruits ye shall know them.
(Matthew 7:15-20)
Every branch that beareth fruit,
he purgeth it, that it may bring
forth more fruit. He that abideth
in me, and I in him, the same
bringeth forth much fruit: for
without me ye can do nothing.
(John 15:2,5)
For it is God which
worketh in you both to will and to
do of his good pleasure.
(Philippians 2:13)
If these things be in you, and
abound, they make you that ye
shall neither be barren nor
unfruitful in the knowledge of our
Lord Jesus Christ.
(2 Peter 1:8)
