Morning Thought: Spiritual growth is a battle of taking your ‘promised land’ little by little. It happens in the small daily things you do. God gives a promise but it takes patience, perseverance and persistence for its fullness to come to pass in your life and in those you love. Keep standing and keep believing in God’s Word. “The Lord your God will drive out those nations before you, little by little. You will not be allowed to eliminate them all at once, or the wild animals will multiply around you. But the Lord your God will deliver them over to you, throwing them into great confusion until they are destroyed.” (Deut. 7:22, 23 NIV)
