Make the New Year one of Spiritual Growth
As we step into the new year, let’s reflect on what it takes to grow spiritually. The answer is simple: intentionality. Spiritual growth doesn’t happen by chance; it requires deliberate effort and consistent choices to draw closer to God.
Instead of making New Year’s resolutions that often fade away, let’s make a New Year commitment to Christ. Let’s decide to grow in our faith and live out the Christian life as it’s meant to be lived.
Here are a few key practices that will help you grow as a follower of Jesus Christ:
- PRAY: Prayer is like a direct line to God. Spend time talking to Him every day, and watch your relationship with Him grow. (Philippians 4:6)
- READ THE BIBLE: The Bible is God’s love letter to you. Reading it regularly will draw you closer to Him and deepen your understanding of His love. (1 Peter 2:2)
- FELLOWSHIP: Surround yourself with people who encourage and support you in your faith. Find a good, Bible-believing church where you can connect with others who share your values. (Hebrews 10:24-25)
- WITNESS TO OTHERS: Share your faith with others and pray for opportunities to spread the gospel. Ask God for boldness and a burden for the lost. (Mark 16:15)
Remember, knowing these things is not enough – we must do them to experience true spiritual growth. As Jesus said, “If you know these things, blessed are you if you do them.” (John 13:17)
