Grow Into Christian Maturity

Jesus Did it for us. .

The carnal man does not delight in the presence of God; instead, he finds it uncomfortable, for his heart is at enemity with the very One who created him. Each time he draws near, there is haste within, a secret uneasiness to depart quickly. This is not new, it began with Adam after the fall. The place that once was his joy and security became a place of dread, and the presence that once wrapped him in peace now exposed his shame.

Yet, God’s desire has never changed. He still longs for fellowship with His children. What was lost in Adam has been restored through Christ. The presence that once drove us away is now the very place where we are welcomed, healed, and made whole.

Beloved, do not flee from the presence of God. Do not let guilt or fear drive you from the One who loves you most. In His presence there is fullness of joy, and at His right hand are pleasures forevermore. Return to Him, linger with Him, and you will find the peace your soul has been searching for.

For 120 years, Noah labored faithfully, building the ark while warning the people of the coming flood. Yet instead of heeding his words, they laughed at him, mocked him, and tried in every way to shake his faith. But Noah stood firm, anchored in the word God had spoken.

At last, when the ark was finished, it was God Himself who shut the door. He knew that once judgment fell, Noah might be moved by the desperate cries outside. And when the waters began to rise, the people pleaded, wept, and called out, but the window of mercy had already closed.

Beloved, let this sink in. Scripture declares: “As it was in the days of Noah, so shall it be in the coming of the Son of Man.” The return of our Lord Jesus will take place in an hour no one expects. The rapture of the saints will not wait for our convenience.

The only way to be counted worthy is to live ready, always, every day, every moment.

"Let us then come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need." — Hebrews 4:16

No earthly king or ruler throws his doors open to everyone at all times. No matter how approachable he may appear, he cannot attend to all. That is why there are protocols, guards, and security details, gatekeepers who decide who enters and when. Even then, the king’s power is limited. You may bring him your request, yet he may not have the ability to grant it. And even if he could, his office has hours, once closed, no one is attended to until another day.

But our God is different. He is the Great King, the Monarch of the universe, whose throne is never guarded against us, but graciously opened to us. He has issued a standing invitation: “Come boldly.”

With Him, there are no restrictions. His office never closes. His capacity never runs out. His power knows no limits. He can meet every need, carry every burden, and answer every cry, whether spoken in the silence of midnight or in the brightness of day.

So come, boldly, confidently, expectantly. The throne of grace is wide open, and the King Himself waits to hear you, to help you, and to pour out His mercy without measure.

Noah spent about 120 years building the ark while warning the people about the coming flood.
They laughed at him, mocked him, and tried in every way to discourage him from holding on to his faith.
But Noah persevered, confident in the word he had received from God.

When the ark was finally completed, God Himself shut its door, knowing that Noah might be moved by compassion if he heard their cries.
As the floodwaters rose, they pleaded and wept, but the window of mercy had already closed forever.

On the last day, only two things will stand:

the souls of men and the eternal Word of God. Everything else will melt away like wax before the fire.

Beloved, prepare yourself!

There are two kinds of faith: the kind that delivers you from hardship, and the kind that carries you through it. The second kind has another name and it is called patience.

Some people say things like, “Life is short, do what makes you happy.”

It sounds appealing, but let’s not forget, life is also eternal, and every moment here echoes in the life to come.

Yes, pursue joy. But let your joy be rooted in purpose. Let your happiness align with the will of the One who gave you breath.

Do what makes you happy, but ensure it’s something that will also make Heaven smile.
Because in the end, we will all give an account. And true joy is found not just in what pleases us, but in what pleases our Maker.

"I have set the Lord always before me: because He is at my right hand, I shall not be moved."~ Psalms 16:8

This verse is a declaration of focus, intimacy, and unshakable confidence. David wasn’t merely saying that God was around him, he was intentionally setting the Lord before him. This means his eyes, his decisions, his thoughts, his actions, all were guided by the constant awareness of God's presence.

To set the Lord before you is to make Him the center of your vision. It’s a deliberate positioning. In a world full of distractions, fears, and uncertainties, David teaches us a powerful secret: divine stability comes from divine focus.

And because God is at my right hand,” David is saying, I’m not alone. I’m not unsupported. I’m not vulnerable. The right hand signifies strength, help, and authority. It’s the position of a trusted companion in battle.

So he concludes: I shall not be moved. Not by pressure, not by fear, not by trials, not even by the threat of death. His confidence isn’t in himself, but in the presence of the unshakable God beside him.

Action Points:
1. When you start your day, pause and set the Lord before you.
2. Acknowledge Him in your thoughts, your choices, your plans.
3. Say, Lord, go before me today. Be at my right hand. I trust You. The storms may come, but with God beside you, you will not be move

Mentorship is powerful, but the pattern of mentorship matters even more.

It’s not enough to have a mentor; how that mentor shapes your path is what truly counts.

Too often, mentors project their personal experiences as universal templates. They forget that God's dealings are deeply personal, and what worked uniquely for them may not be the divine pattern for another.

Imagine a young girl submits to Mary as a mentor. Because Mary’s journey was marked by supernatural provision without male assistance, she might insist, “You don’t need a man to support you, all you need is the Holy Ghost.” But is that a doctrine, or just her testimony?

Or consider a minister who accessed great spiritual power without the depths of prayer, fasting, or consecration. His counsel? “You don’t need all that, just say a quick prayer, and you're fine.” But does this bypass the weight of spiritual disciplines that have shaped saints across generations?

Mentors must tread carefully.

Your experience is valid, but it’s not the blueprint for all. True mentorship seeks divine patterns, not personal preferences. It guides with humility, not assumption. It points people to Christ, not merely to your path.

Let every mentor ask, Am I raising replicas of my experience, or disciples aligned with God's unique design for their lives?

Dear ministers of the Gospel,

Let this truth sink deeply into your hearts. Only that which is born of the Spirit can truly transform the spirit of a man. What proceeds from the soul may stir emotions and intellect, and what arises from the flesh may impress for a moment, but neither can pe*****te the depths of the human spirit.

As you prepare to minister, remember, the eternal impact of your message depends on its origin. Do not merely craft sermons that entertain the mind or excite the emotions. Resist the temptation to motivate from the soulish realm or perform from the flesh. Instead, yield to the Holy Spirit. Let Him breathe upon your words, shape your message, and empower your delivery.

When the Spirit speaks through you, hearts are pierced, lives are changed, and destinies are aligned with Heaven. Let the Holy Spirit do His holy work through you, so that your message doesn't just inform, but transforms.

Throughout the New Testament, one truth stands clear, mature believers never stayed silent when the integrity of the Gospel was at stake. With boldness anchored in love, they confronted error, not to humiliate, but to heal. Their corrections were not weapons of shame, but instruments of restoration, wielded to preserve the purity and power of God’s truth.

The Apostle Paul, moved by deep affection for the body of Christ, did not hesitate to correct Timothy, reminding him to flee youthful lusts and pursue righteousness. He firmly rebuked the Corinthian church for their pride, divisions, and alarming tolerance of sin. These were not acts of judgment, but demonstrations of spiritual courage, truth spoken in love, with eternity in view.

From the beginning, open rebuke has been God's refining fire, a sacred tool to shape and restore. In a generation drowning in silence and compromise, we must not discard this divine practice. To truly walk in the light, we must welcome correction as a gift, not a curse. I would rather be lovingly corrected and grow than be silently flattered and fall.

So let us honor those whom God has anointed to speak truth with compassion. May they speak without fear, knowing that sometimes, the voice of correction is the very echo of God's mercy—the voice that saves, awakens, and realigns hearts with heaven.
