Progressing not plateauing

Philippians 3:10 AMP
[For my determined purpose is] that I may know Him [that I may progressively become more deeply and intimately acquainted with Him, perceiving and recognizing and understanding the wonders of His Person more strongly and more clearly], and that I may in that same way come to know the power outflowing from His resurrection [which it exerts over believers], and that I may so share His sufferings as to be continually transformed [in spirit into His likeness even] to His death.
It is easy to plateau, to stop moving forward in our relationships with God, to gain a certain revelation of Jesus and seek no more.
But everything flows from our relationship with God.

The voice of God

Man does not live on bread alone but on every word that comes from the mouth of God.

There is nothing more inspiring, nothing more liberating, nothing more empowering than hearing God and applying His life giving words into our lives.

When He speaks things are put into their proper perspective, we worry less, we smile more. And hearing Him is not beyond us. For Romans says ""The word is near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart,"

Let us still ourselves then and be freshly fed each day, knowing Him more and more.
