As Christians, the first place we ought to grow & prosper is our spiritual life. You are not supposed to neglect the inner man. Here are a few signs that show you have neglected the inner man: - 1. Not reading the Bible – The word of God is the food for our spirit (Mathew 4:4) 2. Inconsistent Worship – Adore God for who He is & not because of your condition or circumstance (Habakkuk 3:17-18). 3. Lack of Fellowship – Do not neglect going to church because doubt flourishes in loneliness (Hebrews 10:25). 4. Failing to Repent – For all have sinned (Romans 3:23), repentance frees us from the bondage of sin. 5. Prayerlessness – Check your prayer life. Jesus is our example He prayed always. 6. Self-Righteousness – Claiming to be good 7. Not participating in any church Ministry (Matthew 9:37) 8. Quenching the Holy spirit (1 Thessalonians 5:19) All these lead to the slow death of our inner man. …………………………………………………………………………………………… 𝐇𝐎𝐖 𝐓𝐎 𝐆𝐑𝐎𝐖 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐈𝐍𝐍𝐄𝐑 𝐌𝐀𝐍 1.
