Know Your Best Friend (Part 6)

In this sixth message, Dr. Youssef highlights the evidence of the Spirit-filled life: the fruit of the Spirit (Galatians 5:22–23). Unlike the fleeting works of the flesh, the Spirit’s fruit—love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control—cannot be manufactured or faked. They appear most clearly in trials, when stress presses believers closer to Christ. As Jesus taught, “By this my Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit” (John 15:8). Dr. Youssef reminds us that pruning, though painful, is God’s loving work to increase our fruitfulness. This episode calls believers to abide in Christ daily, surrendering to His Spirit so that lasting fruit may abound.
