Growing In Christ

To grow is to receive, to receive the nourishment required to produce the building blocks of Life.
We have committed our ministry here at Harvest Time Fellowship Church to growth, growth of the spiritual, in the personal relationship of each believer and growth in the corporate relationship of the Church.
The moving of Living Water (The Holy Spirit) is the requirement of this growth we are seeking. As water will bring life and color back to the hue of nature, so too will the Spirit bring Life to the Church.
The nourishment the Church need now is the Fruit of the Spirit,
Love:
For the Father, the Son and in the Spirit.
For your neighbor, for your brother, for your sister, for the lost.
Joy:
In salvation and sanctification.
In tribulation
In the presence of the Living God.
Peace:
In the Rest of the Almighty.
In the Promise of His Word
In the sovereignty and goodness of God's calming presence.
Patience:
With contentment that you are in the right place and doing the right thing.
With assurance that you will display the same long-suffering given to you, for others.
Kindness:
A kind word in a difficult situation.
A kind hand in a moment of need.
That compassion seen in your Savior will be evident in your life.
Goodness:
The moral ethics of a Righteous God be displayed in your daily actions.
Faithfulness:
To be trusted by the One who calls you to repentance, to salvation and to service.
Gentleness:
To be able to read the moment, speak when need, comfort as required, to love always.
Self Control:
To be able to deny self.
To be able to shun evil.
To be able to bridle your tongue.

Psalm 34:8
Oh, taste and see that the Lord is good;
Blessed is the man who trusts in Him!

John 4:32
But He said to them, “I have food to eat of which you do not know.”

For the Church to move in the Spirit once again, for His Wind to once again blow through her walls, we must partake of the Spirit.
Seek Him today and see what will be the supply for you in the House of the Lord.

Because of Jesus,
Pastor Jerry
