[Scriptures] Revelation 2:17
Whoever has ears, let them hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To the one who is victorious, I will give some of the hidden manna. I will also give that person a white stone with a new name written on it, known only to the one who receives it.
Revelation 22:12
Look, I am coming soon! My reward is with me, and I will give to each person according to what they have done.
A person cannot keep living at the same level.
If you stay at the same level, it is boring and miserable, there is no hope,
and there is no satisfaction.
The same is true with faith.
You have to climb up to the level that is perfect and stable.
You have to climb up to the level that satisfies God and yourself.
However, your level will not increase automatically.
Your level rises as you grow through learning, realizing, and taking action.
Let’s say that a thin person wants to increase his weight.
Will his weight increase just because he is determined to gain weight and thinks about it?
He has to increase his weight and muscle density over a long period of time
by eating healthily and exercising.
The same is true when you are raising your level.
You have to learn, realize, and take action for a long time on the things that are necessary.
Only then will your level rise.
Even if you live only one day, if you live at a higher level while doing the things that you need to do, your thoughts and the things you gain will be different.
Everyone, I bless you to continue to learn, realize and act upon the things that the Holy Trinity commanded and inspired you with, and to raise your level as individuals, your level of action, and the level of your faith at the same time, and thus to go up to the next level and gain things at the next level.
