This is part of a series of books in which particular verses are picked from books of the bible, and the issues of Spiritual Growth are explored, in the light of the mind of God for us.
In this book, we explore three topics, from different verses in the books of Micah, Habakkuk and Zechariah. They are: Truth and love; My high places; and Strengthened and walking in the name of the Lord.
Excerpts:
Truth and love
“One of the Ten Commandments is not lying. God stands for the truth and nothing but the truth (Exodus 20:16). Being truthful marks us as children of the light who overcome darkness. If we are not truthful, we will not have the capacity for receive God’s truth but will live in darkness. Living in truth is about commitment to obeying the word of God, seeking to know it and living by it.”
My high places
“It is a conclusive fact that it shall be well with you (Isaiah 3:10). No matter the opposition that seems to be stacked up against you now, they will fade away (Psalm 18:43-45), none can stand the strength of your God that you work with.”
Strengthened and walking in the name of the Lord
“Jesus once asked his disciples: who do men say that he is (Matthew 16:13-19, Psalm 118:10-12)? They gave various answers. He then asked what they themselves call him. Peter said that he is the Christ, the son of the living God and Jesus said that on that nomenclature the whole church will walk, so to speak. That name becomes the banner under which the church will match on and the gates of hell will not prevail against it.”
