PERSONAL GROWTH
Key Text: Romans 8:29

28 

those who love God, to those who are the called

according to His purpose. 

For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to

29

daughters.

blessing for them to be fruitful and multiply.

supplement our faith" with these things.

Let us see again our text for today

And we know that all things work together for good to

28 

those who love God, to those who are the called

according to His purpose. 

For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to

29 

be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might

be the firstborn among many brethren. 
Introduction

• Anything that has life will automatically undergo the

process of growth.

image of Jesus Christ is GROWTH.

Holy Spirit-led life
We were created in the image of God but was marred when
we rebelled against Him.

Jesus Christ took our sins and died on Calvary to redeem us so

that we can come to God who dearly misses us.

Living in the image that has been restored back to us by our

God is a lifetime process.

But we know that from glory to glory (like the potter to his
clay ) He will be faithful to complete it what He begun in us.
