The Way of Maturity - Stephanie Ike Okafor

Join us for an insightful message on *Spiritual Maturity* as we explore how to grow deeper in our relationship with God and prepare ourselves for the trials and tribulations of life. Too often, we remain stuck as spiritual babes when God is calling us to be teachers and leaders. It's time for us to take the next step and embrace true spiritual maturity, because it’s not about age, but growth in Christ.

*Key Points:*
1. *Study the Word* (Psalm 1): A spiritually mature person delights in the law of the Lord. Take a look at how you are treating your relationship with God and shift your heart posture toward His Word.
2. *Apply the Word* (1 Kings 18:1): Like Elijah, who prayed for rain without knowing when it would come, we must have unwavering faith and create an atmosphere that makes the enemy uncomfortable.
3. *Trust in His Sovereignty* (Daniel 3:25): Just as the three Hebrew boys didn’t burn in the fire, we must trust that our lives are hidden in Christ and that God reveals His truth to us as we grow in faith.
4. *Be Led by the Spirit* (Romans 8:14): Spiritual maturity grows as we follow the Spirit. Obedience to God's voice gives us power and leads to discernment and peace that the world cannot give.
5. *Rest in His Peace* (John 14:27): True peace comes from God, not the world. The world’s peace is often accompanied by noise, but God’s peace surpasses all understanding.

*Scriptures:*
Hebrews 5:12 – It's time to mature in our faith and stop questioning what God has already revealed to us.
1 Samuel 16:12-13 – David was called to be king as a young man, reminding us that spiritual maturity isn’t tied to age.
Hebrews 4:12 – The word of God is a sword that equips us to stand strong in times of tribulation.

*Call to Action:*
Take every thought captive to Christ (Proverbs 23:7) and lean into spiritual growth in every area of your life. God has called us to maturity, and now is the time to step into that calling.
