Bettering your relationship with God
Hi there,
Hope you are doing well by the grace of God.
These are just a few tips on getting closer to the Father. Now, you need to understand that these tips cannot be done with human effort. The Holy Spirit alone can help you because God is spirit and it is the spirit in man (you and I) that connects to God. The Holy Spirit is the helper of the spirit in man ( John 14:16) . So, please remember the Holy Spirit.
Also, you need to understand that the Lord provides that hunger, the desire to get closer to Him. Your flesh would never truly desire a genuine relationship with the Lord because having a relationship with God requires death of the flesh. So we must ask God for the desire to get closer to Him before we implement these steps into our daily routines. John 6:65 says that no one can come to Jesus unless the Father has enabled them (NIV). We can only get close to Him if He allows us and this can be done by simply asking Him.
Tips📝
*An hour or so before you sleep, prepare an atmosphere for His presence to dwell in so He speaks to you through dreams and so that you sleep in His presence.
*Take prayer breaks during the day, just inviting the Holy Spirit into every moment of your life.
*Take time to worship. On your own, put on some gospel music and worship the Lord for the Lord inhabits the praise of His people (Psalm 22:3 KJV).
*Fellowship with others.
*Detach yourself from the world often. Find days where you intentionally spend the entire time in His presence, studying His word, watching sermons and praying.
*Set boundaries for what you watch, listen to and engage with.
I sincerely pray that the Lord places an indescribable hunger to get closer to Him in our hearts. The desire has always been to burn and He is the one who sets us ablaze so the closer we get to Him, the more we can burn for Him. So God help us🤎!
See you next week God willing!😚
