#3695 – Growing Up

Good morning people who keep on moving upward in LOVE

1 Corinthians 13:11 NIV When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood behind me.

Your speech, thoughts and reasoning are evidence of where you are at on your spiritual journey towards God; that is, your spiritual growth.

I believe it is time for many Believers to grow up in God. I think too many are excusing bad behaviour and ongoing lifestyle choices, and somewhere along the line, something needs to change.

Yes, I know that true and lasting transformation is a work of the Holy Spirit. But I also know that we are to ‘put off’ some things and we are to ‘put on’ some others. The Holy Spirit often works to the level of our obedience.

“Are there some decisions today that Father wants you to make for the sake of maturing in Him?”

When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood behind me.
