Hey, guys! Today I will be talking to you about the ways you can grow spiritually and mature in your faith as a Christian…. let’s do it!
First off, the most important thing you can do in order to grow in your faith is to mentally make the decision that you will take your Christian walk seriously from here on out.
So what does it mean to take your Christian walk seriously?
It means to take your relationship with God seriously!
Once you make this decision in your mind, you need to understand that it might not be easy…
It’s gonna be like learning how to walk.
Why? Because that’s what it is exactly!
As a born-again follower of Christ, you are learning how to shift and go from the flesh and natural into the Spirit side of life.
Learning how to be spiritually minded and to set your mind on the things of the Spirit does take work, especially in the beginning.
You might be used to waking up late and just scrolling on social media.
You might be used to watching movies and secular YouTube videos in your free time.
So you’re going from a mindset that is based on one thing and placing its focus on a whole other thing… on God!
This is part of the renewing of the mind.
Here are 4 ways to grow in Christ:
#1 Start thanking God and speaking to Him about little things like when you wake up, before you eat, and while you drive.
Thank Him for the day and for His protection and things like that just to get that fellowship started.
#2 Start following Christian social media pages so that you can see little scriptures and devotionals whenever you’re online.
#3 Go unfollow all the pages that you might be following that have content and language that promote worldly thinking, lusts of the flesh, and things that are contrary to God and God’s word.
You don’t want that to be influencing you, because it’s going to make things harder and the process of thinking differently even longer for you.
You don’t want to have to attempt to forget this half-naked chick just because you scrolled on Instagram. That might take your mind which will take your body to the wrong place and that is definitely not going to help you grow in Christ!
#4 Start watching preachings on YouTube and bible-based movies on Netflix instead of the regular things you watch during your spare time.
I’m not saying to cut off everything that’s not Christian, but at least while you’re wanting to grow and get serious with God take in all the bible-based content that you can.
Later on you and God can decide what your conscience permits you to watch without your purity and honor to God being compromised.
Let’s stop right here for now….
I think that this is the perfect way to start, try these 4 things and check back with me on the topic.
This will bring you into a higher place of relationship with God than ever before.
These might sound basic and minor but trust me, this is a great way to start and it will help you change your thinking and place your attention more on God.
