There are two that I know of that are not cultivated as the other Fruits. Love and Patience, but Patient is something I believe believer has little of, they don't want to wait for anything but asking for everything. When the believers pray, they believe and receive but don't want to wait for it. The example I have; is sitting in traffic or driving behind a slow vehicle that is driving slower than the speed limit requires so impatiently we want to move or wish they would move. In Proverbs 19:11NI...

2 commentsSelf-control, to me, is the most frequently uncultivated fruit of the Spirit within the Body of Christ. The basic meaning of one having self-control is to be able to behave in a manner that is appropriate to the given situation. Spiritually speaking, when a believer is walking in the fruit of the spirit, he or she should display a manner of self-control. In the Greek, according to Strong’s, the word self- control means egkrateia or self-control, spirit †control, true mastery from within. Sel...

3 commentsThe fruit of the spirit that is often not cultivated is long suffering. Websters dictionary defines long suffering as patiently enduring lasting offense or hardship. It is difficult for most believers to say or be drawn to the idea to willingly suffer or remain in hardship. We read all of time about how Jesus suffered for us as in Mattheew 16:21 Jesus began to show to His disciples that He must go to Jerusalem and suffer many things from the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed,...

2 commentsThe most frequently uncultivated fruit within the Body of Christ, in my opinion, is Love. Love is the highest frequency anyone can have because God is love. The bible says in John 3:16 that for God so loved the word that He gave His only begotten son that whosoever believeth on Him, should not perish, but have everlasting life. God gave Love, we didn't deserve it or earn it. Jesus came to earth and was ridiculed, mocked, disrespected, and beaten; however, in return he gave Love. Most of us could...

2 commentsWithin the body of Christ, the manifestation of the fruit of the spirit that I believe to be often uncultivated is self-control. We sometimes see this when emotions or actions are a struggle to control, especially within relationships. It could also be due to immediate desires and culture. One example, if an individual often reacts in anger or makes impulsive decisions, it could indicate lack of self-control. Anger can lead to sin and the Bible is clear in Ephesians 4:26 when it says, In your an...

2 commentsOne uncultivated fruit of the spirit is long-suffering also referred to as patience. God knows that we can be impatient at times, but it's not the wait but how we wait. Colossians 1:10-12 says that you may walk worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing Him, being fruitful in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God. Strengthen with all might according to his glorious power for all patience and long suffering with joy giving thanks to the father who qualified us to partakers of the inheren...
