Fruit of the Spirit: Faithfulness | Heather Schott | MC East Fort Worth

This powerful message from Senior Pastor Heather Schott centers on the Fruit of Faithfulness as a non-negotiable requirement from God. Drawing from Numbers 12, we see how God affirms Moses as uniquely faithful—humble, obedient, and intimate with Him—despite criticism and opposition. Faithfulness is defined not by outward success, but by unwavering trust, obedience, and endurance through persecution, suffering, and temptation. The message warns of the deceptive Spirit of Python, which mimics truth to sow confusion, rebellion, and division in the church, using false prophecy, jealousy, and spiritual manipulation. It strangles spiritual life, keeping believers from bearing good fruit. Believers are urged to examine what they are truly faithful to—whether it's God or idols like platforms, people, or self-will. True faithfulness, as modeled by Moses and Paul, is proven in the valley, in prison, in pressure, and in consistent pursuit of God’s will. It is maintained through abiding in Christ and regular repentance. Ultimately, faithfulness leads to eternal reward, not necessarily earthly comfort, and culminates in hearing Jesus say, “Well done, my good and faithful servant.”
