April 13 Building a church

Reading: Numbers 27-28 and 1 Corinthians 14

Scripture: 1 Corinthians 14:12, So with yourselves, since you are eager for manifestations of the Spirit, strive to excel in building up the church.

Thoughts: At different stages in our walk with the Lord we have different needs and different desires. Paul has talked about how when we are new, we need spiritual milk and as we mature we need weightier things to work on. When we are new, we are looking for different manifestations of the spirit. Everything from a word to experiencing a miracle ether receiving or seeing one. Having that eagerness is good as long as it is not for our own glory but for building up the church and giving glory to the father. 

Prayer: Father God, you know our hearts and our desires, you know when we need milk and when we need solid food. I thank you for the teachers that do being the solid food and don’t let us just subsist on milk and not call us to grow. Help us to use our eagerness and out striving for spiritual manifestation to be for your glory and to point this fallen world to you.
