Bearing the Fruits of the Spirit

I got to thinking about a common problem for believers today, it is regarding bearing the fruit of the Spirit. Too many believers (myself included) do not bear the fruits of the spirit or bear much less than they should. What is the solution to this problem? What causes us to bear the fruits of the Spirit? In another teaching that God gave me I started thinking about how a plant bears fruit. I did some research and fruit always starts as a flower. The flower must be fertilized (via pollination) before it can bear fruit. The fruits of the Spirit are: love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. So what are the flowers, the precursors to the fruits of the Spirit? I believe they are the promises of God! We can not bear the fruits of the Spirit without believing Gods promises! Also I believe the process of fertilization is faith. We also can not bear the fruits of the Spirit without faith in God, the promises of God (the flowers) can not become fruit without faith!

This teaching shows that the root cause of not bearing the Fruits of the Spirit is ultimately unbelief in God's promises! If we can get the word of God in our "knower" this will ultimately lead to us bearing the fruits of the Spirit that we should!
