But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To Him be the glory both now and forever. Amen. 2 Peter 3:18
Message:
Grace is God’s gift, and our growth determines how we learn to walk in it, respond to it, and fulfil the purposes for which He has called us.
Spiritual growth is more than knowing Scripture and attending church. It is allowing God to shape your hearts, renew your minds, deepen your understanding, and mature your character.
There are things God desires to do through you that require you to grow beyond who you are today. The patience required for one season is different from the wisdom required for the next. The responsibility you pray for demands a deeper level of discipline, discernment, and dependence on God. Grace is not a reward for growth. Rather, spiritual growth helps you become more mature in how you receive, steward, and express the grace God has given you.
You do not have to know everything today. You have to remain willing to grow.
The more deeply you grow in Jesus Christ, the more intentionally you live out the grace He has placed upon your life.
Midweek Challenge:
Set aside intentional time to pray, study Scripture, or practise an act of obedience that strengthens your walk with God.
Prayer:
Father, thank You for Your grace and for the purpose You have placed upon my life. Help me not to remain stagnant in my spiritual journey. Amen.
