Remain In Me

To remain is to dwell, to stay close, and to draw strength from His presence every moment of the day. Like a branch joined to the vine, our life and fruitfulness depend on the constant flow of His Spirit within us. Without Him, we can do nothing, but with Him, we bear fruit that lasts for eternity.

Remaining in Christ is not passive; it is a daily choice to abide in prayer, to meditate on His Word, and to surrender our will to His guidance. As we remain, His peace guards our hearts and His joy fills our souls. This union transforms our character and empowers our witness to the world.

Jesus declared, “Remain in Me, and I will remain in you. Just as no branch can bear fruit by itself without remaining in the vine, neither can you” (John 15:4 AMP). His presence is our source of life.
