(Hebrews 5:13-14 NKJV) For everyone who partakes only of milk is unskilled in the word of righteousness, for he is a babe. {14} But solid food belongs to those who are of full age, that is, those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.
It is never a good thing to stay in one place too long with regard to spiritual growth.
As believers and followers of Christ, God wants us to constantly be learning and growing, getting a better understanding of who He is and what He wants for our lives.
Some of us have been Christians for a very long time, while others may have just recently recognized their lost condition and gotten saved. There may still be others reading this who are seeking God and trying to figure out how to reach Him.
One thing we have learned over the years is that the length of time that a person has been a believer doesn’t always correlate with their spiritual age or maturity. Some people grow quickly, while others might take some time. It all depends on the person, their personality and their circumstances.
Today, we’d like to challenge everyone!
We’d like to challenge you to take some new steps in your walk with God and make a choice to pursue Him more diligently. A strong relationship with anyone doesn’t just happen. It takes constant effort on the part of both people.
And so it is with God. If we desire to be close to Him and know Him well, we have to put forth the effort.
So, starting today, make an effort to set aside a little time each day to do a little something extra to build your relationship with God. Read His word. Talk to Him. Listen for His voice.
If you’re sincere in doing this, you will begin to see a difference in your relationship with our Father, the Creator of all we see, in a very short time.
Go ahead. We dare you!
