Resolved to Grow... by Late Rev. Kenneth E. Hagin

1 Timothy 6:12 "Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, where unto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses."
The only fight the christian is called upon to fight is the fight of faith. If you're in any other fight, you're in the wrong fight. There's no need to fight the devil- Jesus has already defeated him. There's no need fighting sin- Jesus is the cure for sin. But there is a fight (and therefore enemies, or hindrances) to faith. The greatest enemy to faith is a lack of understanding God's Word.


 In fact, all hindrances to faith center on this lack of knowledge; because you cannot believe or have faith beyond your actual knowledge of the Word of God.
However, your faith will automatically grow as your understanding of God's Word grow (Romans 10:17). If your faith is not growing, it's because your knowledge of God's Word is not growing. And you cannot grow or develop spiritually if you are not growing in faith.
The best resolution you can make today is that you must be determine to grow everyday in the knowledge of God's Word.
Then give yourself to the study of the Word! It will automatically follow that your faith will grow. Hence, you will grow and develop spiritually.
