IT'S TIME FOR GROWTH

SCRIPTURE READING: Isaiah 60

A little one shall become a thousand, And a small one a strong nation. I, the Lord, will hasten it in its time. Isaiah 60:22

When we commit ourselves to grow, God transforms us from the little weak people we are into mighty giants who do big things for Him.

Have you ever had this experience? After so many years, you meet a friend from your past — maybe your childhood or teenage years. This is someone who used to bully you and make you feel small and weak. Now, you meet him or her and you wonder whether it's the same person. When you were younger, they seemed big and intimidating but now they appear rather small and frail.

You ask yourself: 'Is it the same person? What happened?' Well, you grew! In your mind, you assumed that no matter how much you grew, they would be bigger than you. Then you realize after meeting him or her that you actually grew bigger. You smile at them and wonder what it was that made you afraid in the first place. We go through that exact experience in both our spiritual and mental lives.

Today, when you look around you, there are so many difficulties that perplex you and make you feel insignificant. When you look at them, they seem so big and impossible to solve. In your mind they seem like problems which will always be with you.

However, as you consistently apply yourself to spiritual growth, in the word of God, something dramatic is taking place that you do not see. You are growing stronger and bigger by the day. Although you may not see it, you are growing spiritually — in your mind, thoughts and understanding.

One day, you will confront the same problems that scared you today, and they will appear small and insignificant. Those issues that you thought you would never be able to overcome will bow before you because of your new-found strength and authority in Christ. So, grow, brother grow. Grow, sister grow.

Let us grow until the little one becomes a thousand, and a small one becomes a mighty nation.

PRAYER: Heavenly Father, you are my strength. Raise me up above every limitation facing me today. In Jesus' name, Amen.

WHEN I WAS A CHILD

SCRIPTURE READING: 1 Corinthians 13

When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child; but when I became a man, I put away childish things. 1 Corinthians 13:11

Learning is in stages. In both our natural and spiritual lives, learning is part of our growth. What we learn at an earlier age helps us to learn new things in our later years. If we do not master the things at a lower level, we cannot grasp the higher things. If we do not master our ABCs, so to speak, we cannot master our spellings.

The Apostle Paul describes three stages of growth.

• Thinking as a child. It is cute for children to think and speak like children. We all have instances when we've seen a child play a prank or say something that convulsed us with laughter. A child's combination of innocence, unfiltered thoughts and poorly-formed words can make us marvel at their brilliance. The only reason why we see what the child does as brilliant is because he or she is a child. Similarly, when we are new at learning anything, people may see our mistakes as cute.

• Becoming a man. Usually, our bodies grow ahead of our minds. As we add up birthday after birthday, it should dawn on us that we are growing. After blowing the birthday candles and eating the cake, we must recognise the reality of our age. We are no longer whom we used to be. That is something we must come to terms with both physically and spiritually.

• Putting away childish things. When we grow, we must change. As a child grows, his or her mistakes will no longer be cute. Parents get worried when childish behaviour continues. The scriptures tell us that as we grow in life, we must put some things away. That means we have to make the effort to stop some patterns of behaviour.

When adults behave like children, they turn people off. Similarly, as we grow in Christ, we must put off spiritual 'babyism'.

PRAYER: Heavenly Father, help me to put away every thought and action that holds me bound to my childish past. In Jesus' name, Amen.

DON'T BE CHILDISH

SCRIPTURE READING: 1 Corinthians 3:1-15

And I, brethren, could not speak to you as to spiritual people but as to carnal, as to babes in Christ. 1 Corinthians 3:1

Paul described the Christians in Corinth as babies in Christ. That means although physically they looked like grown-up people, they did not have the maturity to handle serious commitments. Because they were immature, Paul could not speak to them about the deeper things of life.

Though Christ commends us to be childlike in trusting God, He does not want us to be childish in our understanding and actions.

Why did Paul describe the Christians in Corinth as babies?

• They were showoffs. Children are major attention seekers. They like to be at the centre of attention; and will do everything to steal recognition from others. They can't understand why it is someone's birthday and not theirs; they will therefore throw tantrums. Unfortunately, many of us never outgrow this inordinate need for attention. Sometimes, on social media, we see people showing off and desperately trying to get the attention of people who care very little about them.

• They were sectarian. Paul noted that the Christians in Corinth did not derive their confidence in God and what God had made them. They derived their attention from people they were associated with. Some claimed to belong to Peter, others to Apollos and Paul. If they lived in our age they would be the ones who build their identities around other people's brands. Instead of building their identities on Christ, they fought for their brands.

• They had squabbles. As a result of their childish need to showoff and be sectarian, the Corinthian Christians were quarrelsome. They always fought amongst themselves. They did not know how to live peaceably with each other. Like us, they liked to put others down.

If we have these Corinthian traits, we may also be described as babies. Yes, physically, we are grown but in reality, we are children. God does not want us to be childish in understanding. He wants us to mature.

PRAYER: Heavenly Father, help me to outgrow my fears and insecurities. I desire to mature in my walk with you. In Jesus' name, Amen.

LOOK TO GOD

SCRIPTURE READING: Mark 10:46-52

Then many warned him to be quiet; but he cried out all the more, 'Son of David, have mercy on me!' Mark 10:48

The devil will always have someone available to tell us why we shouldn't expect to get results when petitioning God. Most people would rather stay with the crowd and not do anything to draw attention to themselves, even if that means not getting their needs met. They will try to make you conform as well. If this man had listened to the crowd, he would not have received his healing.

This blind man is a good example of an active kind of faith. He was not passive in his approach toward healing. He boldly cried out to Jesus for mercy. When the crowd ridiculed him and told him to be quiet, he cried out even louder for mercy.

Many people believe that God can perform the miracle they need but relatively few are willing to actively pursue it until they get results. They are afraid of what others will think of them. This man had his attention focused only on Jesus. Nothing else mattered and that is why he got healed.

An integral part of faith is seeking God only with your whole heart. If we are concerned about what people think in order to gain their approval, we will never take a stand in faith for anything that we might be criticised for. This is one thing that has stopped so many people from receiving from God. You cannot be a 'man-pleaser' and please God at the same time. Satan uses persecution to steal away God's Word and thereby stop our faith.

Don't rest until you become all God wants you to be.

PRAYER:Heavenly Father, help me to look to you alone and seek you with all my heart. In Jesus' name, Amen.

DON'T GET TIRED

SCRIPTURE READING: Galatians 6:1-10

And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart. Galatians 6:9

Whatever we sow, we reap in due season. Have you had people do something bad and wished they will reap instant judgment? Did you get disappointed that God did not judge them instantly?

• Due season. What is the due season? This concept clarifies the principle of sowing and reaping. So when we sow a seed, we don't just reap at any time. We reap in due season. In the same way, when we sow a seed — prayer, good deed or financial — we reap in due season.

The due season is the season when things happen. For example, when I sow corn at the beginning of the planting season, I will reap at the harvest season — from June to August. No matter how urgent my need is, the corn will be harvested at the appointed season for corn.

Similarly, God has appointed seasons for things to happen. A child can pray by faith for a car now, but he needs to reach a season of maturity for God to give him the car. There are offerings that people give today but they need to be in another season for them to receive their reward from the Lord.

• The fullness of time. The due season has its fullness of time. Though harvesting takes place at an appointed season, each plant matures slightly differently from others. The season may be right, but each one may have a slightly different fullness of time.

For example, pregnancy takes nine months to birth. However, two women who became pregnant on the same day may go through a full-term pregnancy and deliver on different days. My fullness of time may be slightly different from your fullness of time.

Just trust the Lord that in due season, at the fullness of time, He will reward you and show you His goodness.

PRAYER: Heavenly Father, I thank you that in due season and in the fullness of time, I will receive your promises. In Jesus' name, Amen.
