"The Date That Lost Its Life: Dead Works"

How God can reveal when something that started as a Spirit-led celebration can subtly shift into a dead work, especially when control, pressure, or pride begin to replace peace, joy, and divine flow.The difference between living and dead works is like that between a living plant and a cut flower. At first glance, both might look vibrant. But one is connected to roots and will continue to grow and bear fruit; the other is severed from its source of life and will wither. Jesus taught this clearly in John 15. He said, "I am the vine; you are the branches. If you abide in Me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from Me you can do nothing*" (John 15:5).

When we remain intimately connected to Christ (the "vine"), our works are alive and Spirit-filled, and we naturally bear fruit. But when we disconnect – even if we continue the outward form of ministry – we "can do nothing," meaning our efforts become barren. They become "nothing" of eternal value, the definition of dead works.
