Do you want to grow your faith? The things that we do and hear play a big part in that. This scripture tells us that faith comes from hearing the word of God. So if we want to grow and strengthen our faith or even just maintain the faith we have, we need to get in the word. We need to be devoted to reading our Bible and learning more about God, allowing Him to continue to reveal himself to us in different ways.
What we pour into ourselves matters. If we spend all our time in the world listening and doing things of the world, then we will not grow our faith. In fact, we can even walk farther and farther away from it with this lifestyle.
But if we fill ourselves with the word of God and strive to do things that honor and point us to God, then we will grow our faith. The more we see and know God, the more we will trust him and become fully reliant on him.
So be careful what you fill yourself with. Let's all strive to be in the word more than we are now, so we can have a deep-rooted, strong faith.
Prayer:
Lord, we want to be surrendered to you and devoted to our relationship with you. Help us to grow and strengthen our faith. Help us to be disciplined in our choices and to choose things that bring us closer to you. We ask that you give us strength and help us to not be distracted by the things of this world, in Jesus name we pray Amen.
Verse:
So faith comes from hearing, that is, hearing the Good News about Christ. Romans 10:17 NLT
