The Importance of MentorshipA mentor is someone who guides you along the way, helping you become like them. Having a mentor can help you fulfill your destiny (Matthew 28:19).

As you grow spiritually, you will see progress and advancement in your life, despite persecution (Psalm 1:1-4, Psalm 84:7, Genesis 12:1-2). The Power of the WordThe power to greatness as a believer is in your mouth, stimulated by the truth of the word (Romans 1:17, John 1:16). The Glory of GodThe glory of God is the presence of God (Exodus 33:18-19). It is the nature of God in you (Colossians 1:27, Romans 8:11). The Spirit of God is the glory of the Father (Romans 6:4).
