GROWING

  GROWING Ephesians 4:9-16 Devotional:- “But, speaking the truth in love, may grow up in all things into Him who is the head of Christ” (V. 15) God’s plan and desire is that we grow up. So many Christian today are growing older but not growing up. Many are stocked in perpetual spiritual infancy. This is because they never intend to grow. Spiritual growth is not automatic, it takes intentional commitment. You must want to grow, decide to grow, make an effort and persist in growing. Discipleship is the process of becoming like Christ (Matthew 10:25). In your spiritual growth, God has a part and you have a part. To be Christ-like you will need to make Christ like choices and depend on the Holy Spirit to help you fulfill those choices. The moment you are ready, you will need to let go of some old routines and develop some new habits. You will need to intentionally change the way you are thinking (Philippians 2:12-13).

HELMET OF SALVATION

HELMET OF SALVATION

1 John 5:1-5
Devotional:- “For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world-our faith” (V. 4 )NKJV

    God is a victorious God. So, when a man is adopted into sonship with God, the spirit of victory enters into him. This is what a man receives at new birth. God’s word says, that as many as believe in Him, He gave them the power to become the sons of God (John 1:12). The power of God that makes a man to become a child of God comes with strength for victory. So God’s word says whatever is born of God wins.

The fact that a child of God is defeated does not remove the fact that he is a victor. The ability for victory is within but if it is not activated, such a person is to be blamed. That is why you as a Christian must understand that your birth in Christ enlists you for victory but you must arise to claim your salvation by faith.

This is done by growing your faith life. This is growing the nature of God in your soul by the word of God (James 1:21). Unregenerated soul is the reason for our weaknesses as Christians (1 Peter 2:11). For a soul to be regenerated, it has to study the word of God consistently to believe, think, and speak the word. Remember the state of your mind determine the state of your life. This is how to put on the helmet of salvation. Faith is becoming Strong in the Lord. This is living in the consciousness of your new family in God. Never look down on your new personality, this must fill your mind and you declare it everywhere. “l am a child of God.”’ And your life will be secure.

PRAYER: LORD, ESTABLISH ME IN YOUR SONSHIP.

“VICTORY IN CHRIST IS THROUGH INHERITANCE BY FAITH“
