TAKE A LITTLE STEP OF FAITH
This is the topic we will start with. Please read carefully to grab all that lesson has

CONTROLLING THOUGHT:
It is mandatory, we learn to walk with the Almighty God. Study Paul's advice to early Colossians church on how to take your first step.

KEY VERSE:

Rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving (Colossians 2:7 (KJV).

BIBLE TEXT: COLOSSIANS 2:1-7 (KJV)

MAIN DISCOURSE
I have five children: four sons and a daughter. My sons were quite cautious as children, thinking before they act, pondering any potential dangers that they might encounter. My daughter, on the other hand, don't fear anything. She just went into rooms with the fervor of a small monster, taking her bumps and bruises along the way. It was amazing to me that five siblings, only few years apart, raised by the same parents in the same house, could have such unique behaviors at a young age. Such also is true for Christians.

Learning to walk with Christ is better said than done. Reading this post is a good step to start. You must maintain a strong faith in Christ. Paul said that he may not be with the Colossians physically, but he is there in spirit, for their faith in Christ, unites them.

Maybe, we received Christ early in our journey, bounding through the room like my daughter, but our faith cannot stop there. The Christian movement is a continuous process and whether you exhibit the calculating and methodical approach to walking like my sons, or the youthful passion and energy of my daughter, there are a number of paths that lead to the Heavenly Kingdom.

Everyone must remember that the path is endless. It is a lifetime journey, and we must walk consciously, continuously and constantly striving to be better in the eyes of the Lord. How can christians learn to walk with God. Read Paul's advice to early Colossians church how to take your first step.

DECLARATION:
Dear Father, let my first step on my journey with Christ be on sure footing and establish. Most importantly, let me take a bigger step to walk closer with God in my pilgrimage journey to Your kingdom - Amen.
