Leviticus 26:3-4 Deuteronomy 7:12-13 Isaiah 9:7 Isaiah 29:19 Isaiah 9:3 Isaiah 40:29
The increase of the word of God ( Acts 6:7 ) refers to the spread of the gospel message. Increase is used both for the numerical growth of the church ( Acts 16:5 ) and for maturation ( Ephesians 4:16; Colossians 2:19 ). Christian maturity is evidenced by an increase in love ( 1 Thessalonians 3:12; 1 Thessalonians 4:10 ) and knowledge of God ( Colossians 1:10 ). Boasting in the results of one's work for God is without a basis since God gives the increase ( 1 Corinthians 3:6 , Colossians 2:19 ).
