1 Peter 2: 2-3
Be like newborn babies, always thirsty for the pure spiritual milk, so that by drinking it you may grow up and be saved. As the scripture says, “You have found out for yourselves how kind the Lord is.”
What of Today’s Verse…
Salvation is a precious thing! But like a newborn baby, we become obnoxious or sick if we stay in the same place we were spiritually when we were saved! Read Hebrews 6 and see what God has to say about remaining immature! We must really want to grow. We must crave what is good and what builds us up. What are you going to do today to satisfy your spiritual appetite?
Let us Pray:
My almighty God, thank you for loving and saving me I really want to mature in your grace. Bless me each day as I seek to pattern your holy habits, and filling myself spiritually with the things that will help me grow. But Holy God, I know that true growth comes only from you, so I ask you to strengthen me with your Spirit as I pursue your character. Through Jesus’ mighty name I pray. Amen.
