Let Us Grow

1 Peter 3:12 (NIV) For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous and his ears are attentive to their prayer, but the face of the Lord is against those who do evil.”

Peter is assuring us that the Lord sees us and hears us however there is a requirement, and that is RIGHTEOUS: someone who is in accordance with high moral standards. ACCORDANCE: to have come to an understanding, or to be in agreement.

Sometimes I feel that some think saying a pray and going to a church on Christmas and Easter. Guarantees one a free pass to heaven. I am here to tell you that repentance is the first step. When one repents one needs to understand REPENT. A simple way of putting it is turning away, to turn around and go in the opposite direction. That is why I say there is one road, Heaven at one end Hell at the other. Now I also do believe that we need to repent daily we are human and Jesus did die for us and we are not under working our way to heaven.

I think is made a little clearer here… Psalm 34:12-16

12 Whoever of you loves life
and desires to see many good days,
13 keep your tongue from evil
and your lips from telling lies.
14 Turn from evil and do good;
seek peace and pursue it.
15 The eyes of the Lord are on the righteous,
and his ears are attentive to their cry;
16 but the face of the Lord is against those who do evil,
to blot out their name from the earth.

We are born into this sinful world however I believe that young children are in Heaven. The Bible is not very clear about this children are covered by God. No where in the scripture does it say word for word that children are saved. However I believe after reading a lot of articles and Scripture that they are covered. Each can study as I have and make your own decision. A Google search works if you wish.

See our daily walk is the same thing we need to think about what we say and do as I have said before. Are we all going to be perfect NO. However look at it as an apology, “Lord I blew it there I am sorry please forgive me”. And go on. We will find that those little things seem to fall off as we grow. Easier as we grow is a better word. I was explaining it to Debbie this morning. A new baby is on 2 oz of milk every 2 hours then more milk 4 oz every 4 hours we work it until it is only 3 times a day. Then comes baby food the solid food then they start feeding them selves. Then I hope that they learn what they should eat and what they should not. That is growing, there are a lot of quote unquote Christians that have been in the church for years and still on milk. However some eat 3 times a week Sunday morning and Sunday evening then on Wednesday, others twice a week Sunday morning and Sunday evening and others once a week Sunday morning. That is not growing in the lord.

What is done here is growing praying and reading and listening and studying. So now I do hope we grow as we get closer to our God.

1. Read the Word and Pray
2. Study the Word and Learn
3. Come together and Grow

Coming to this sites and reading and praying helps this is not all however it is a great place to start. I do hope this helps and some that reads it grows. As children we grow into young adults then adults then seniors growing is a fact of life and it needs to be a fact or being a Christian, Let Us Grow.

Memory Verse for March 1, 2015

1 Peter 3:12 (NIV) For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous and his ears are attentive to their prayer, but the face of the Lord is against those who do evil.”

May God be with you and watch over you. And America it is time for us to BLESS GOD again…

Psalm 5:8 (AMP) Lead me, O Lord, in Your righteousness because of my enemies; make Your way level (straight and right) before my face.

  1. People need to grow on solid food when some one gets saved they piggy back faith and asking the person that lead them to the Lord. But after a time they need to start looking up their scriptures and praying. Not that you cant ask some one where a scripture is some times. But I desire to go on and learn. I love to learn, I seek knowledge and wisdom and discernment and understanding.
