2Kings 13
Getting out of the comfort zones
The fruitfulness that comes with spiritual fruitfulness comes with process.
Lk. 13 a man with a vineyard planted a fig tree 3 years with no fruit.
Matt. 25 a man with the talent that yielded nothing was under a comfort zone
Mark. 11 Jesus finds a tree full of leaves but no fruit, he curses it. How then that he was expecting fruit of this tree?
John. 16 there is fruit that lasts and also fruit that is fruit so a true should never be ever green but ever fruitful.
Is it possible to produce fruit that lasts, yes it is a matter to stretching
The life of Jesus is a matter of stretching from the time he came from heaven when he left his glory.

PLACES JESUS WENT
Jesus grew up in a town called GALILEE a form of comfort, a place we find identity, no challenges, there's no time to stretch.

GETHSEMANE is that place that will pull you out of the comfort zone. This was a place of betrayal, all his disciples ran away from him but Jesus was only moved by knowing the will of God for His life- the salvation of mind-kind, the fruit that lasts that motivated him. what happens when we get to Gethsemane. John.19-1 Many people think the zone of discomfort has many displeasing things but Ps. 23 tells us those are shadows. God says he is with us. Jesus came out with a crown of thorns and a purple robe. The spirit world was seeing a king unlike the world. He received the robe from Herod and this was symbolic of a King.
There are good things in a place of discomfort, you have to wait for them.
Within the midst of the discomfort there is a robe, there is a crown
He went to GOLGOTHA
here he was confirmed as the King of suffering but will come again a glorious King
The GRAVE to glory
1Cor. 15 speaks to us of the victory he won in the grave

The GRAVE to glory

Even Jesus began to say, father can this cup be take from me.
for all of us to be fruitful especially of fruit that lasts, we must sow seed
Matt:4 Jesus was tempted but in all this He made reference to His Father and what was written, this is the seed that we must sow to bear lasting fruit.
It is necessary to move into discomfort zones, we must also know that these zones will not consume us but make us strong
Are we ready to move into these zones of discomfort, shall we stretch ourselves?
