Continuous Progressive Growth

“They will continue to grow stronger, and each of them will appear before God in Jerusalem” - Psalm 84:7 NLT)

Growing strong in God’s Presence is often preceded by a journey through barren places in our lives. The person who loves to spend time with God will see his or her adversity as an opportunity to experience God’s faithfulness even more deeply. According to Proverbs the way of the righteous is like the first gleam of dawn, which shines even brighter until the full light of day. This means spiritual growth, increasing clarity in understanding the action of obedience  and a life of success. Remember God promises us a life of abundance.

With Yeshua as our pattern of godly living and the model of divine Love, should not we seek to imitate His Goodness and Grace? NOT in our own strength, but in the supernatural strength that He supplies, through the Power of the indwelling Holy Spirit: "Without me, You can do nothing." Without ME, You cannot love as I have loved. BUT: "I can do all through CHRIST, Who strengthens me, in the Power of His Holy Spirit."

The work of the Holy Spirit in a believer's life is to bring us into the likeness of the Lord Himself. The Law in the Old Testament was designed to point us to Yeshua, but the Spirit's Ministry of Grace is intended to make us like Yeshua.

We can grow in the Grace and knowledge of our Lord; walking in a manner worthy of the Lord; above all we become mature in Yeshua. Growing in Yeshua, growing from strength to strength, from glory to Glory. May we continue to be changed into the image and likeness of our Lord with every passing day, and show forth His Goodness and Grace, not only in our lips but in our lives, by giving ourselves up to His praise and Glory.

We are growing stronger in You. Being transformed by the renewal of our mind. Selah!
