Thought for the Day

"I am going to teach you something today that is going to advance your spirit to the next place that God has prepared for you, if you receive it. I say place instead of level or rung on the spiritual ladder, because we, (the body of Christ) receive the same truths of God at different times. 

Maturing spiritually in Christ, isn't determined by learning or knowing something that no one else knows, somehow separating you or me from others by advanced understanding. Maturing spiritually in Christ is practicing what we know and sharing it with someone else so they too can receive the supernatural blessings from God that we have received from God.

I say practicing, because knowing a truth does not advance your spirit. You must practice truth before it takes root in you and makes fruit. Truth revealed that stays concealed is religion.

Truth revealed that moves a man or woman and spurs them to action that glorifies God is Christianity.
