Grow in knowledge

Grow in knowledge.

"But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and for ever. Amen."

2 Peter 3:18

Not growing today by increasing in knowledge is becoming weak for tomorrow's battles. Growing in knowledge here does not refer to head knowledge. We are referring to spiritual knowledge. This means that you ought to be increasing daily in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

It also implies that you have to take your time of daily devotions in the Word of God seriously. Cultivate the habit of listening to the Word of God in your house or in your car, instead of listening to worldly music. It is only the Word of God that can make you strong spiritually, nothing else can. Therefore, if you don't want to faint in tomorrow's battles or become easily discouraged when challenges arise, you have to commit to renewing your mind and your heart by the knowledge of the Word of God day by day.

The more you grow in the knowledge of God, the more like Christ you become. You are being changed day by day into His image. 2 Corinthians 3:18(AMP) says, "And all of us, as with unveiled face, [because we] continued to behold [in the Word of God] as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are constantly being transfigured into His very own image in ever increasing splendor and from one degree of glory to another; [for this comes] from the Lord [Who is] the Spirit."
