Spiritual Puberty

Show Indonesian Version

Galatians 4:1

Now I mean that the heir, as long as he is a minor, is no different from a slave, though he is the owner of everything

Bible Reading for A Year:[bible]Psalm28[/bible];[bible]0Luke4[/bible];[bible]00Job36-37[/bible]

Puberty means maturity; someone who has been grown up. The Bible states that a person who has not been grown-up yet does not deserve to have legacy. But after he had puberty, then he may get his legacy.

Puberty which is meant by the verse above is about a spiritual puberty or spiritual maturity. This is the goal of believers in order to achieve spiritual maturity as it is written, " ...until we all reach unity in the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, and the growth rate according to the fullness of Christ" (Ephesians 4:13).

Physically, everybody must have been grown up, starting from toddlers, children, teenagers, youth and then being an adult. The more they are grown-up, then their physics or body get stronger, even though it does not guarantee their spiritual maturity.

Someone who has spiritual maturity (puberty spiritually) will surely experience a miracle of God and enjoy the fulfillment of His promises in his life, and in order to be grown-up we could not be separated from the guidance of the Holy Spirit because our bodies are the temples of the Holy Spirit. Therefore, our lives should bow down to the guidance of the Holy Spirit.

Only those who have been 'grown-up' is increasingly entrusted by God in all things and be His heir!
