Grow in faith as you have others<br />
supporting you. There is much<br />
to learn in the presence of others.<br />
Matthew 18:20 states “For where<br />
two or three are gathered<br />
together in my name, there<br />
am I in the midst of them.”<br />
The fact that God’s word<br />
is constant and true,<br />
corporate worship<br />
through prayer will<br />
enable God to<br />
work through you<br />
all as your true<br />
worship enables<br />
his presence to<br />
manifest within<br />
these groups.<br />
There is authority<br />
in prayer also<br />
when it is<br />
expressed in unity.<br />
This creates room<br />
for powerful prayer.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Strive to be a doer of the word and<br />
not just a listener. Fasting as part of<br />
growth will help you grow. Believe and<br />
have faith that if you do the Lord’s work<br />
and follow his commandments he will<br />
magnify you to heights you can’t even<br />
fathom. Be thankful in good and bad<br />
times. Develop a Christ-like mentality<br />
to guide you as you grow spiritually.It<br />
is also wise to use what you’ve learnt in<br />
your daily life.<br />
These will strengthen your<br />
relationship with God. You will<br />
learn all you need to know to enable<br />
God’s<br />
love and<br />
blessings to manifest into your life.<br />
Always seek to get closer to God. Pursue<br />
habits that cultivate your relationship<br />
with God. If you want more sow more,<br />
it’s that simple. Discussions help you go<br />
deeper as you go directly into the word.<br />
Sometimes one learns things better from<br />
another’s perspective and not merely just<br />
<br />
for spiritual growth. One can never go at<br />
it alone.<br />
<br />
<br />
Tithes and offerings are of great<br />
importance. Malachi 3:8 states,<br />
“Bring ye all the tithes into the<br />
storehouse.”<br />
This command<br />
is followed by the verse<br />
in the same book of Malachi in chapter<br />
3 verse 10 where it states, “And I pour<br />
you out a blessing that there shall not be<br />
room enough to receive it.” Centre your<br />
priorities on the Lord and give with a<br />
cheerful heart knowing that all you have<br />
comes from Him. You will soon realize<br />
that God is a faithful provider.<br />
<br />
Allow yourself to focus on the<br />
important things. Make it a priority<br />
to meditate on the word,listen to what<br />
the word is telling you and develop a<br />
connection with the Almighty. TP<br />
