GROWTH

LIGHT FOR LIFE DEVOTIONAL

FRIDAY, June 26, 2020

SCRIPTURE: COL.2:1-7(ESV)

​ For I want you to know how great a struggle I have for you and for those at Laodicea and for all who have not seen me face to face, that their hearts may be encouraged, being knit together in love, to reach all the riches of full assurance of understanding and the knowledge of God's mystery, which is Christ, in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. I say this in order that no one may delude you with plausible arguments. For though I am absent in body, yet I am with you in spirit, rejoicing to see your good order and the firmness of your faith in Christ.

Therefore, as you received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in him, rooted and built up in him and established in the faith, just as you were taught, abounding in thanksgiving.

GROWTH IS A PROCESS

Nothing just happens; process is the key to the quality of every product including human character and competence.

Good morning Lighthouse Family, I declare that today everything is turning in your favour.

Spiritual growth is the root of every kind of growth in life. Your marital, intellectual, financial, physical, professional and social life all draw from the quality of your spiritual life. We must all come to the realization of this truth; you are a spirit, your spiritual life is more real than your physical life. The trouble with us is we allow what we see physically to influence how we think. The truth remains that the spiritual realm determines the physical in all ramifications. The world is far larger than we see. Those who understand this reality pursue spiritual power and relevance because that is the key to making progress without sweat.

Friends this doesn’t answer to age but to stage. The most powerful force of the spirit realm is God’s word which represents the true light. The psalmist says the entrance of the word brings light. The word is platform on which the spirit of God operates. As you are guided by the Spirit through the word every area of your life will experience undeniable progress because you will begin to determine the happenings around your life. Start today, come into the consciousness that you can control things in your life from the realm of the spirit by learning to stubbornly and continuously dig, discover and declare the word of God over situations from the spirit realm. I love to add that growth is faster when you are accountable to a mature believer. Mentorship facilitates growth. Connect with a mentor, a pastor or a mature believer who has character and be accountable. I mean someone you can chat with, call or visit regularly to help you grow faster, stronger and better. Enjoy undeniable progress this month.

Prayer

Holy Spirit, show me what I must do to move all areas of my life forward in Jesus name. (Spend ample time to pray this in the spirit today)

Prophecy

I decree a change of your spiritual level today in Jesus name

I break the operation of darkness over your children and your spouse in the name of Jesus.

I speak life into every stagnant condition in your house and business in Jesus name.

No one is permitted to stand against you as you move today and always in the name of Jesus.

Everything is turning around for your good today and always in Jesus name.

Your eyes are opened to see the “wells of treasure” around you in the name of Jesus

Every association that is working against you and draining life out of you is broken now; receive wisdom to dissociate yourself from draining relationships in Jesus name.

Declaration

I GROW BY THE SPIRIT AND THE WORD EVERYDAY

YOU ARE SUPERNATURAL

I LOVE YOU
