PRINCIPLES OF SPIRITUAL GROWTH


TEXT: 2 Peter 3:18
When a child does not grow it bothers the parents. The same way, when a child of God does not grow, it is a concern to Heaven. Spiritual stagnation is an unhealthy situation.
Spiritual growth for a believer has to be multi-dimensional. You don’t have to grow in one direction. Try to picture a person growing upward (Height) without increasing in weight. This is how it is when a person does not grow in a balanced spiritual proportion.
Also, when a person ingests unbalanced spiritual diet, he/she will be spiritually malnourished. Medically, malnourished children are vulnerable to many illnesses. The same way, a spiritually malnourished believer is open to several assaults from the enemies because his/her spiritual immunity is low.
There are several dimensions of spiritual stagnations and malnourishment just as there are raw materials for enhancing spiritual growth. On SPIRIT SWORD we commence a series on spiritual growth. I encourage you not to miss it for anything. Your spiritual life will not escape the sword of the word. Live strong!
