SPIRITUAL GROWTH (8)


>>> DANGERS OF FAILED GROWTH
TEXT: 2 Peter 3:18
When a person is not making progress, his life radiates frustration. To fail to grow spiritually has dangers for the person and this is what we consider on SPIRIT SWORD today as we round off the series on spiritual growth.
(1) Stagnation and retardation
(2) Increased vulnerability and susceptibility to spiritual assaults and destiny hazards.
(3) Existence at the mercy of competition. Dissociation from the covenant of manifestation. 
(4) Easy fallibility. Such persons fall so ‘cheaply’ to temptations.
(5) Existence in ignorance with a characteristic struggling life
(6) Tendency for lack of integrity…ask Gehazi!
(7) Living without impact and at risk of destiny – Swab
(8) Eternal risk of missing Heaven
FINALLY
When you do not grow, you cannot be fruitful. That fig tree had no fruit to offer Jesus…it had failed (spiritual) growth. As you express commitment to grow in grace, you shall bear fruits and your fruits shall abide.
