God's Promise of Our Growth in Him

God's Promise of our Growth in Him

By: Robert A. Searles

The Lord is constantly looking down from heaven upon the human race  to  see if there are any or who will seek him and glorify him, and he has promised to those who do seek him and understand him that they will flourish and prosper.

"The Lord looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, and seek God." Psalm 14: (KJV) Bible

"The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree: he shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon." Psalm 92: 12 (KJV) bible

When men and women, boys and girls, truly seek the Lord to understand his ways, and look upon his face, as it were, we are changed, and the more we steadfastly gaze upon him, we are changed into his image and likeness.

"But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord." 2 Corinthians 3: 18 (KJV) Bible

When we keep our eyes fixed upon the lord, he teaches us as his dear children, and we learn the truth, and grow and become mature adults, and are able to speak the truth in love to others so that they may come to know him and be saved.

"That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive; But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ:" Ephesians 4:14-15 (KJV) Bible

  "Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ:" Philippians 1:6 (KJV) Bible
