Philippians 1:6 (NIV)
6 being confident of this, that he who began a good
work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.
Being a Christian is more than just an instantaneous
conversion. It is a daily process whereby you grow to be more and more like
Christ. When you start out, you start out as a baby. You must be fed on the
simple things of the Bible, and you learn to walk in your Christian life
gradually. At first you will fall down and make many mistakes, but you are to
continue growing. However, there are many people who have stopped growing. They
remain spiritual babes all their lives. I am afraid that this experience is all
too common today. Perhaps it is yours.
Do you remember the day when you gave your heart and life to
Christ? You were sure of victory. How easy it seemed to be more than conqueror
through Christ who loved you. Thousands of Christians have struggles with
themselves. The great need in Christendom today is for Christians to learn the
secret of daily victory over sin.
Thought for today:
Am I in the practice of confessing?
