It is quite easy to become complacent as a Christian. When we see ourselves or our relationship with God as good without putting forth effort, we can be drawn into complacency. When we see our responsibility to represent God in these times only as the need to login to watch Worship Services, we can be drawn into complacency. When we lack the press and pursuit that is necessary to grow in our Christian witness, we are drawn into a place of complacency.
Complacency is dangerous because it is the sentiment and thinking that causes us to be pleased with self. Complacency is wrapped in self-approval, pride and self-congratulation. Christian complacency is no different. When we as Christians do not see the need to improve, that is complacency. Let me remind each of us that in the flesh dwells no good thing and that sin and evil dwell in our carnal nature (Romans 7:14-21).
To overcome complacency, we must first see it for what it is. We must be willing to identify when we are slacking in our own godly pursuits and efforts. We cannot have a short-term or periodic zeal for God and for pursuing Him and His righteousness. The love that God has shown us remains consistent and powerful. Therefore, we must be consistent in having a press for our own Christian growth and development.

If you find that you have slipped into a complacent place, change. Put forth more effort and more work in the things of God. Spend more time reading God’s Word for your own edification. Spend more time in communication with God.
