MORE OR LESS

 
John 3:30
 
"He must increase, but I must decrease." ESV 
 
Many Christians have a tendency to pay more attention to how they measure up as a Christian. They may compare themselves to other Christians and attempt to align their lives with them. Our Christian journey is not about us! It is about the Lordship of Jesus Christ and bringing others to Him. If we focus on Jesus Christ and seeking to be more like Him, our walk will take on His likeness and others will follow. That is our call in this world.
 
Lord, forgive us for getting focused on ourselves and how we are doing as Christians. We know we are to exam ourselves, but we know that seeking You and You alone is the answer to being full of Your Spirit. Help us to keep our eyes on You, so that our footsteps will take the shape of Yours. Keep us from our worry about how we are doing. Let us be so in love with You that we become magnets for You without doing anything but seeking Your face. We pray in Your name, Amen.

GOD SUPPLIES FOR OUR GROWTH




God is the supplier of seeds to plant and He brings forth a crop.
From the crop, our needs are abundantly supplied and have
enough to share and provide to others who need it. In the same
way, God supplies us with blessings. We accept His blessings
and use what we need to grow more in Him. We give out of this
abundance of His blessings to others so they can do the same.
The more we give, the more He supplies to us.

Heavenly Father, help us to receive your blessings with a pure
heart and to give freely to others. We desire to be a part of
multiplying your love and grace. In Jesus' name.

Read 2 Corinthians 9:10

"Now he who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food will
also supply and increase your store of seed and will enlarge the
harvest of your righteousness." (NIV)

"Now he that ministereth seed to the sower both minister bread for
your food, and multiply your seed sown, and increase the fruits of
your righteousness." (KJV)
