In order to bear this fruit, you must be planted and properly rooted spiritually:
"Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.

And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, taht bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper"
(Psalm 1:1-3).

Hebrews 10:25 tells us not to "forsake the assembling of ourselves together" and Psalm 92:13-14 tells us that:
"Those that be planted in the house of the LORD shall flourish in the courts of our God. They shall bring forth fruit in old age; they shall be fat and flourishing...".
