Five Benefits of Spiritual Growthಮಾದರಿ

Day 3 – You’ll increase in favor with God

I’m not a father yet. But I’ve had the privilege of leading teams to do the work of the ministry for some years. I saw that some were more committed to growth than others, while the rest needed a lot of training to step up in the work.

However, as I lead them and a time comes for our ministry to make changes and promote some in the team, I think of giving such favors to those who are more committed than the indifferent ones. Why? Because I feel as a leader, that such team members will make the work more effective. That is the same way I’ve discovered concerning God’s leadership. He always favors and promotes the humble and diligent because they’re committed to growth.

As Jesus grew, the Bible says he increased in many things, which I’ve written about in the upcoming plan days. One of them is favor with God (see Luke 2:52). Jesus was favored by God in such a way that He never struggled to receive help from people, even after His death. There was no hint of financial struggles. And that favor even spread across the whole team.

In Luke 9:1-6 when He sent the twelve to preach the gospel, He told them not to take any provision as they went. The disciples obeyed Him, and they lacked nothing on their ministerial journey (see Luke 22:35).

It’s only God’s favor that will open doors for you in life without your stress. And even though you can pray for it, growing spiritually will cause Him to release that grace upon your life supernaturally. Focus on growth, child of God.
