Go On And Grow
Friday, November 28, 2025Key Verse
“And David went on, and grew great, and the LORD God of hosts was with him” (2 Samuel 5:10).
Text —2 Samuel 5:4-10
Message
The presence of God in a person’s life creates a fertile environment for growth but growth is a result of decisions and actions taken under good counsel with divine support. Just as a person grows physically from infant to adult, like David who went on and grew greatly, so a Christian’s life is designed to grow spiritually from a baby to a mature Christian. God desires we grow greatly spiritually, academically, and materially. However, the process demands that we make sacrifice, take bold steps and partner with others as David did.
Do not run away from challenges or complain in difficult times, rather focus on getting victory and growing above them. The obstacles and challenges of life look smaller and weaker as we grow stronger in the Lord. We must be in complete obedience to God’s word and the Spirit’s leading to grow in the faith. Bible records reveal that John the Baptist, despite being filled with the Holy Ghost from his mother’s womb still grew. Also the Bible says, “And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favour with God and man” (Luke 2:52).
