The vine and the fruit
The Holy Spirit came to replace His Son Jesus, and give continuation to His Work. To glorify Him in such way that the active ministry of the Lord Jesus is the same as the Holy Spirit’s.
Therefore, he who desires to be used by the Holy Spirit should live a life separated for Him and stay in communion with Him daily. It is obvious that all His servants should be filled with His presence because they will receive the power that will identify them as the true servants of God. This separates them from this world.
All those who are born of the Spirit of God have the supernatural faith within them. They become the proper blessing, the fountain of living water that springs up wherever they go. Their lamps never go out because they are always searching for the things that come from above.
Their spirit is connected with God all the time and they naturally bear fruit.
On the other hand, he who has this power within himself but does not exercise it, he can be inserted in the following word of the Lord Jesus, “I am the true vine, and My Father is the vinedresser. Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit He takes away; and every branch that bears fruit He prunes, that it may bear more fruit.” John 15.1,2
With this word we can understand that we were inserted in the true vine and we are its branches. The vitality that comes from the principal root flows within us, it means, the power of the Spirit of God in us!
The same spirit that anointed the Lord Jesus has anointed His followers with. If the branches do not bear the fruit that the farmer expects, then they will be cut off and removed. This is so others may be born in their respective places and bear fruits.
