Many believers do not know the difference between the "Gifts of Holy Spirit" and "Fruits of Holy Spirit". There are 9 (nine) Fruits of the Holy Spirt mentioned in the Bible:

Scriptures

"But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control" (Galatians 5:22)

God wants to share his love, peace, joy and goodness with us. Through Holy Spirit, these are transmitted into us. We must be thankful to Heavenly Father, that He has allowed us to share His divine nature with us through Holy Spirit, so that these Fruits of Holy Spirit can be seen in our soul and personality.

Jesus told us that He is the vine and we are the branches. The branches draw their life from the vine, therefore, we must draw our life directly from Jesus Christ. Jesus will release His life to us through the Holy Spirit in exactly the same way, in the manner, the vine releases life of tree into the branches.

God bless us all with fruits of the Holy Spirit.
