The first encounter is brilliant, it is awesome, but we cannot stop there, we need to grow as Samuel did, 1 Sam 2:26 And the boy Samuel continued to grow in stature and in favour with the LORD and with people. Salvation is a journey not a moment, the journey requires dedication and growth, as Peter delicately put it in 1 Peter 2:2-3 “Like newborn babies, crave pure spiritual milk, so that by it you may grow up in your salvation, 3 now that you have tasted that the Lord is good”.
We are all very aware of Genesis 1:27 where God told man to “Be fruitful and increase in number”, we have very often associated this scripture with population growth under the institution of marriage. Whilst this is not incorrect, the command to be fruitful goes beyond populational growth, we are required to be fruitful in every thing that we do including our professional life. As the wisest man in the bible put it in Proverbs 14:23 All hard work brings a profit but mere talk leads only to poverty. However, in our search for professional growth we cannot lose focus on the aim, whatever we do, whatever we seek, the aim should and must always be to advance the work of God, Paul said it best in Colossians 3:23 Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men.
In a generation plagued with high suicide rates, high mental health breakdowns, children of God without a sense of belonging, we can really learn a lot from what St Paul says in Philippians 4:6 to be anxious about nothing, and to bring everything to God our Father. As a child of God, wherever you may be in your journey with God, you belong to a family as John the evangelist put it in 1 John 3:1, Behold what manner of love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of God!. We are children of God not by our choosing but by the ultimate sacrifice of the Father for us. John ends the verse by saying Therefore the world does not know us, because it did not know Him, in there is our sense of belonging, belonging as a child of God, in a family of a remnant (1 Kings 19:18) reserved whose knees have not bowed down to the world that did not know him.
