GROWING ARE YOU

Well what did you think when you saw the title of my newest article? Whatever you may have thought but I bet you didn’t think about what I am gonna write about?

Follow a common conversation concerning a book.

Mike: What book is that?
John: It is “The Goal” by Eliyahu Goldratt about the theory of constraints
Mike: I have always loved to read that book. I have heard about it. Can I borrow it?
John: True you can.
Mike: Thanks. Actually I can give you the one I am currently reading. It is called Answered Prayer Guaranteed by Fredrick K.C Price. It is good and enlightening about prayer.
John: Thanks, I will read it right away.

Can you testify that you have been involved in such a conversation? Well brace yourself for an enlightening study that will illuminate your mind.

Discipline:
I have realized that one of the factors that hinders our growth is lack of discipline even in good things. I have found that individually this has hindered my growth. I have seen a person with a book on marriage while I was doing my studies on the impact of your words and asked for the book and started reading it.

This has resulted in scanty and limited information on many issues. It is okay to have knowledge about a number of issues (I do) but when it comes to your Christian walk, you got to be consistent and disciplined. If you are studying about marriage, plunge yourself in all materials you can get and do not try to start another series on End times. Information about other things can come in but if you have placed your hands to the plow, don’t turn back. Study to show yourself approved of God. It is okay to allow allowance of reading or studying about other interests you have but be consistent on that which you have purposed to do.

The above is one reason why I rarely visit churches especially on Sunday morning because half information is as dangerous as a lie. One church started a series on demonology and you find the series midway say about who satan is and then leave next Sunday to visit your friend’s church where prayer is being taught. You will end up confused. Be focused on the one right thing and you will benefit. Don’t be moved by emotions and the phrase ‘Where is it Happenning’ or ‘kibaluseewa’.
You will grow if you are consistent in your life.
