Grafted in Christ | David Wilkerson

Published on: 18th January, 2026

David Wilkerson reveals the shocking truth that you're not just connected to Christ—you've been grafted into him by the Father, sealed by the Holy Spirit, with his life flowing through you, making unbelief the only sin that can sever this divine connection.

Main Points:

• Jesus confronted his disciples' unbelief in the upper room because he knew a church built on unbelief would be crippled—they had to understand their new relationship as branches grafted into the vine.

• When God grafted you into Christ, he made a "V" cut in the vine that had to bleed first—the pressure from Christ's life-giving sap is so powerful it would push you out if you weren't sealed by the Holy Spirit.

• You're not holding onto the vine—the vine holds you! God doesn't do faulty grafts, and you're by the very life of Christ himself.

• Every excuse for unbelief was demolished when Jesus said, "I am the vine"—he is everything you need, containing all resources and all power for every crisis you'll ever face.

• The withering sin that cuts branches off isn't things like adultery or gossip—it's unbelief, the failure to claim your position in Christ when feelings and failures scream you've fallen off the vine.

• Many Christians live in terror that every failure drops them from the vine, but Christ's forgiveness flows through you, covering every sin—his life keeps flowing even when you fail.

• The rest God promises isn't out there somewhere in the cosmos—it's right here in your grafted position, seated in the vine where all heaven's resources flow into you by simple, childlike faith.
