Time to Get in Shape

It's the new year and everyone is making new years resolutions. We're making resolutions to be a better person, promising to eat better, to stop smoking, pay off debts, etc. These are just some of the resolutions people will be making this new year. These are good resolutions; things that will better ones life. One resolution I will be making is getting back in shape after all that holiday eating - good eating. Getting in shape is probably the number one new year resolution people will make. But most do not think about getting into "spiritual shape". There are alot of "Christians" that have been in the Church ⛪ ten plus years and have not grown/matured. They are still babes in Christ; still taking milk. The "milk" of the Word of God is good for those who are new to the Faith, and that's okay. New Christians maybe on the "milk" of the Word a few years; learning and growing. But some Christians have been on milk way too long; so long that they have become big fat babies. Yes I said big fat babies! Never stepping out in faith, never digging deeper in the Word of God, never wanting more - just content being babies; can't help themselves or anyone else. Graduate 🎓 and get in the "meat" of God's Word. The "meat" of the Word has the spiritual protein to build muscle and strength in the Word of God. The strength that can move mountains, heal the sick and cast out demons. God wants us to grow in Him, to know Him better, and in knowing Him we know His Word. I love the phrase "In all your getting, get understanding.". It one thing to be able to quote the Word of God, and it's another the understand it. The first step is digging deep, and the way you do that us reading and studying the Word. Those things in the Word you don't quite understand, ask the Holy Spirit who is the Revealer of all truth; he will make those things known to you. The world is changing, things are happening; things the Bible has foretold years and years ago. You make the choice to develop your faith. You make the choice to get off your spiritual couch, and stop being a big fat baby. Graduate to the meat of the Word of God. It's ok to have some spiritual milk to help the meat go down, but don't stay on milk only. You'll find out that you are stronger and capable of much, much more. Did you out your armor on???
