Becoming a spiritually mature believer takes time and requires that you consistently grow, learn and apply God’s Word. This is how you come to know God. “Speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in all aspects into Him who is the head, even Christ” (Eph 4:15) Spiritual maturity is relative and dependent on the filling of the Holy Spirit and the content of the Word of God in your soul. Learning God’s Word requires academic discipline, concentration, and repetition taught by a well-qualified pastor. The advance to spiritual maturity is a progression through self-esteem and spiritual autonomy. Spiritual autonomy is relying on God’s Word for direction, not the advice of people. Self-esteem brings contentment and confidence knowing God has a plan for you. “Godliness is a means of great gain when accompanied by contentment” (1 Tim 6:6). Mental contentment, being satisfied with where God has you and what He has you doing is stability in life. This is the key to advancing to spiritual maturity.
