Have we changed since being saved? True salvation transforms us to be more like Jesus. God calls us to bear fruit and glorify Him.The first question every believer should ask is, “Am I saved?” The second is, “Have I changed?” True salvation leads to an ongoing transformation into the image of Christ. God promised through the prophet Ezekiel, “I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you; I will remove your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh” (Ezekiel 36:26). This transformation is not optional; it is the evidence of a living relationship with God.

Jesus’ Pruning: Bearing Fruit that Lasts
Discover how Jesus’ pruning shapes believers to bear lasting fruit through His Word, hardships, and the Spirit’s transformation. Jesus’ Pruning reminds us that God lovingly shapes us to bear fruit that will last. Just as a vinedresser tends the vine, our Heavenly Father carefully removes what hinders growth so that we may flourish in Christ. This pruning process, though often difficult, is an essential act of His love and care. Ultimately, His goal is transformation through the Spirit, not mere behavior modification. This is the heart of today’s devotion.
