A journey

A journey.


“When I was a child, I made use of a child's language, I had a child's feelings and a child's thoughts: now that I am a man, I have put away the things of a child.”
1 Corinthians 13:11(BBE)

The Christian life is a journey. It is a journey from the babyhood stage to the fatherhood stage. This is why spiritual growth is not automatic, it is a process. What determines the speed of your growth is the intensity of your desire for the Word of God.  

If you are a Christian reading this devotional today, you are definitely in one of the phases of spiritual growth. You are either in the babyhood phase, the childhood phase, the youthful phase or the fatherhood phase.

A lot of Christians remain babes for a long time after been born again because they did not understand anything about spiritual growth. They did not know they had to grow. They did not know the various phases of growth, so they could not examine themselves spiritually to know how much progress and development they have been able to make spiritually.

Now that you know these things, the onus is on you to determine the phase you are in and to make the decision to move on in your spiritual walk and development.

Confession
In the Name of Jesus, I declare according to my faith in Proverbs 4:18 that my path is the path of the righteous and it is shinning more and more, unto the perfect day. Amen.

For further study, read:
Psalm 84:7, Psalm 92:12-14, Proverbs 4:18.

Doing the Word.
Examine your character and your faith to know which phase you are in.
