Bear fruits John 15:16

I Appointed You That Ye Should Go and Bear Fruit, and That Your Fruit Should Abide:That Whatsoever Ye Shall Ask of the Father in My Name, He May Give It You-- John 15:16

In the first verse of our parable, Christ revealed Himself as the true Vine, and the Father as the Husbandman, and asked for Himself and the Father a place in the heart. Here, in the closing verse, He sums up all His teaching concerning Himself and the Father in the twofold purpose for which He had chosen them. With reference to Himself, the Vine, the purpose was, that they should bear fruit. With reference to the Father, it was, that whatsoever they should ask in His name, should be done of the Father in Heaven. As fruit is the great proof of the true relation to Christ, so prayer is of our relation to the Father. A fruitful abiding in the Son, and prevailing prayer to the Father, are the two great factors in the true Christian life.

Christ is to do with bearing fruit, while the father is to do with prayer answering. 

That whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you.-- These are the closing words of the parable of the Vine. The whole mystery of the Vine and its branches leads up to the other mystery-- that whatsoever we ask in His name the Father gives! See here the reason of the lack of prayer, and of the lack of power in prayer.
