Growing Stronger

Jude in his epistle gives us the formula to strenghten ourselves in Christ, that we might be able to win every spiritual battle we face.

1.  Realize that your confession of faith in the work of Christ and God has sanctified you (set you apart from the world into the Kingdom of God to use as an ambassador of the Kingdom), and preserved you (keep you until the dday of the Lord's return and judgement).

2.  Due to our relationship with Christ the following things have been greatly increased/multiplied to us which provide us with what we need to be victorious they are:  Mercy, peace, and love.

3.  Build/work on your faith continually.  This is a result of exposing your heart, soul, and mind to the word of God, as faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God (Romans 10:17).

4.  Pray in the Spirit.  Your prayer life is to be spirit-led, and spirit spoken through the gift of tongues, and the declaration of the word.

5.  Let love have its perfect work in you, and give love to others in need.

6.  Show forth to others the same mercy that has been given and multiplied towards you from God.

7.  Be and agent of deliverance through love, transparency, and the power of God resting on you.
