Growing Up Spiritually Part One

"The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree: he shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon. Those that be planted in the house of the LORD shall flourish in the courts of our God." (Psalm 92:12-13).

First, I will like to begin by making reference to the above scriptural verse. And to say, that there is need for every man to be planted and rooted in the house of God through Christ Jesus. For to be rooted in God's house is to be rooted in God himself, for God lives in His house.

Let us understand, that no man, no matter his status in life, can be said to truly fulfil purpose who is not first planted in the house of God.

The Psalmist said, the righteous shall flourish like the palm tree. The palm tree because of its depth in the earth, knows not wet nor dry seasons. It flourishes in dry season as much as in wet season. This is as a result of it haven taken root deep in the earth.

For a christian to prosper and grow spiritually, he must first be planted and rooted in God's house. You cant truly express destiny if you are not planted and have your root deep in God's house. It must be clearly understood by all christians that everything God does and will ever do, must first begin from His house. As a result, any man not planted and rooted in His house, will miss out of divine plans. This is why God's Word teaches us not to forsake the assemblying of ourselves together as the manner of some is.
Every great purpose and destiny must rise out of a place. And that place is the house of God. Every true born of the Spirit must as of a matter of necessity, belong to a local assembly or church, where he or she is fed God's truth that brings growth spiritually. It is only as a man is planted and rooted in God's house, that he begins to grow spiritually and in the realisation of destiny.

Spiritual growth, is a function of the growth and development of one's spirit in God and in spiritual realities of life.

Another very vital fact concerning spiritual growth, is locating the true ground for you. Every ground or assembly
