How to Grow in Grace
All believers are commanded to "grow in grace and in the knowedge of our Lord and Savior,Jesus Christ" (2Peter3:18).The important questio is ;How does one grow in grace? Notice the bible says to grow in,not into grace,which is a command from God.The word "Grace"means gift,and it's this gift of salvation
which is Christ we must grow in.When one becomes a
christian then a process begins and here are five
ways that are essential to Christian Growth.
1.Daily Bible Study:"Study to show thyself approved unto God,a workman needeth not to be ashamed,rightly dividing the word of Truth"(2 Timothy 2:15).
2.Daily Fervent Prayer:"Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance for all saint's"
(Ephesians 6: 18).
3.Daily Personal Witnessing:"And daily in the temple,and in every house,they ceased not to teach
and preach Jesus Christ"(Acts 5:42).
4.Regular Church Attendance:"I was glad when they said unto m,Lets go into the house of the Lord
(psalms 122:1)."Not foresaking the assembling of ourselves together,as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another;and so much the more,as
ye see the day approaching"(Ephesians 5:25).
5.Regular Purposeful Giving:"Give and it shall be given unto you"(Luke 6:38)."It is more blessed to give than to receive"(Acts 20:35).
If these five things are allowed to become a vital part of your Christian life,then certainly you will "be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus"
(2 Timothy 2:1).
