we know not how, by itself.

Mark 4:26-29

And he said, “The kingdom of God is as if a man should scatter seed on the ground. 27 He sleeps and rises night and day, and the seed sprouts and grows; he knows not how. 28 The earth produces by itself, first the blade, then the ear, then the full grain in the ear. 29 But when the grain is ripe, at once he puts in the sickle, because the harvest has come.”

We have no power to make the kingdom grow, only to speak the word, God makes it grow, with a growth from God, God gives knowledge of that how and what to do...
It grows by itself with the growth provided by God Himself,

Our growth and readiness is the same only God knows how and when and what.

Some times the best thing for spiritual growth is to leave things by themselves, to let God grow. believe, pray and let it by itself. if God indeed is God and real, spiritual growth, the produce will emerge by itself.

Can we explain life and the way it emerges from a seed? or conception? neither can we explain or micro manage the process of spiritual birth and life. we can only set conditions for it to occur, the word of God, prayer, the presence of God's love and warmth and sunlight. but life is God's word meeting the earth and something else that has to be the touch of God Himself. the x factor is God the uncontrollable factor, just simple faith and trust im Him. Spiritual maturity also comes about from the same principles.
