The word for today is - Growing !

Good morning,
The word for today is - Growing !
 
We all need to grow in the word of God. The word from God tells us so, read 2 Timothy 2:15, Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.What is the Word of Truth; the understanding of how and when and where it should be applied and what was the purpose and thought and Plan of the Divine Mind in the giving of this Word of Truth, rightly dividing the word. We are not to forget that the Lord promised that He would guide His people in the way of the Truth and show them things to come. We are to "study" to show ourselves approved on to God. We must study to avoid error and to shun all foolish questions and profane and vain babblings. Remember that only "the foundation of God standeth sure"; that all other foundations are worthless. The foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, "The Lord knoweth them that are His." Let us study to see that we are striving daily to cast out all the old leaven of sin; to be sure that we are not content to allow it to remain in us and work in us; otherwise we prove by our course that our love for righteousness is growing weaker. So, as a Soldier in Christ you need to put on the whole armor of God, His word! Now, a Soldier he is polishing his armor all the time,he is getting things together for battle,(fighting the enemy). Why should we study? So, that we can be prepared to meet every experience in life. To prepare ourselves to become the person God wants us to be.To accomplish the purpose for which He created us for. The battlefield or realm in which our spiritual warfare takes place is in the mind of every believer in Christ. We wrestle, or strive and struggle in our minds against world systems, the flesh or the carnal nature, and the devil. The mind encompasses our thoughts (imagination, reasoning, and intellect), as well as our emotions and will. Now, this is awesome to me, read Jeremiah 1:5,“Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations.” Wow ! Then ,He tells us in Ephesians 3:16,“That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man.” Now, that's awesome! Thank you God for your word. Amen !
