Developing Your Disciples to Their
Potential God’s desire for our growth Philippians 4:9
Henry Blackaby says in his book Experiencing God, “When (God) teaches you the Word of God, sit before Him and respond to Him. As you pray, watch to see how He uses the Word of God to confirm in your heart a word from God. Watch what He is doing around you in circumstances. The God who is speaking to you as you pray and the God who is speaking to you in the Scriptures is the God who is working around you.”
