SUPERCHARGING OUR SPIRITUAL GROWTH

[FAITH]

Matthew 5:9 - "Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God."

As you walk in the love of Christ be willing to walk away from people who are embittered against you. Pray that the Lord will tenderize their heart and fill them with the love of God and move on making yourself available to others you can help with their spiritual walk. Time is valuable and not to be wasted in trying to revive dead relationships. God has people He wants you to meet so you can help them get closer to Jesus.

 

WE GET UNDERSTANDING ON SOWING SEED AND HARVEST TIME

 

2 Corinthians 9:6,7 - "But this I say: He who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and he who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully. So let each one give as he purposes in his heart, not grudgingly or of necessity; for God loves a cheerful giver."

Make an effort to understand the power of sowing and reaping.

Realize that all God has entrusted to us we are the steward of. In that way, all that we have is seed that can be sown into the lives of others.  Money is only one thing that we sow. Our time, prayers, and worship are also seed that is sown.  If we want increase in our life, both in the spirit and in the natural, we need to get the revelation of seedtime and harvest and how it applies to sowing into the spiritual lives of others. Who doesn't want a harvest in their lives?  Who doesn't want to bear fruit that remains for the Kingdom?  But we have to sow in order to reap.

 

WE ARE ALL COMMANDED TO DO THE WORK OF MINISTRY

 

John 21:17 - "He said to him the third time, 'Simon, son of Jonah, do you love Me?' Peter was grieved because He said to him the third time, 'Do you love Me?' And he said to Him, 'Lord, You know all things; You know that I love You.' Jesus said to him, "Feed My sheep.'"

One of the unique things about the Church of the New Covenant is that God has authorized and commanded every believer to do the work of the ministry, thereby, sowing our time and focus into the lives of others!  God wants an entire army of workers out doing the vital work of DISCIPLESHIP of the saints and building up His Body, the Church.

Many churches are so focused on the salvation message that they fail to feed and help mature the sheep who have already come to salvation. Believers should be equipped to DISCIPLE the new believers so they will be effective in equipping others for personal ministry.

"My children with who I am again in labor until Christ is formed in you.." - Galatians 4:19

The true success of our ministry to others will be by how it brought forth the formation of Christ within the person God has given us to DISCIPLE.
