Cultivating Spiritual Growth

Ephesians 4:15 (NIV)
15Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will in all things grow up into him who is the Head, that is, Christ.

Christianity without spiritual growth cannot bring a deep, true joy and satisfaction. When you received Christ into your life, you did not only accept a system of doctrines; you promised eternal faithfulness to Him because you believe in Him. You can only understand Him better if you share life with Him, and stop focusing on yourself all the time.

Growing in Christ is not an exercise meant to create a comfortable religious feeling far removed from the hard realities of life – it should rather inspire the believer to positive action. Renew your prayer life; rediscover the Spirit of Christ in the Scriptures and see hoe growth in Christ will lead you to NEW DIMENSIONS of LIFE.

My prayer for me and all of you believers out there is that the Lord makes our faith a dynamic power through the renewal of our prayer life and Bible study. Amen.
