After God's Own Heart - A Passive Heart

2 Samuel 13-18

A few reasons why passivity crepe into the lives of Christ-Followers

Wrong priorities

Entertainment Addiction

Squeaky wheel principle

World view

Growing in Christ-likeness does not happen over night! It takes time! Relationships take time to nurture and grow! Same is true for a Christ-Follower! A relationship with our Heavenly Father through His son Jesus Christ takes time!


Child- or literary a baby in Christ - a brand-new Christ-Follower realizes that he is a child of God and not much else.


Young Man- a spiritual young man is strong in the word of God and has overcome the evil one. A spiritual young man is able to recognize false teaching and not become victimized by false teaching.


Man- it is one thing to know that you belong to the family of God and to know the word of God, but it's another thing to know God intimately. Spiritual growth progresses from knowing you are a Christ-Follower to knowing the word of God to knowing God himself deeply.

Matt 28:19 - Go and make disciples!!
