A Simple Guide On How To Build A Close Relationship With God

By Francis Riggs


When you are a believer, you believe in Gods existence and have faith in His power and strength. But it is not enough to believe as it does not help further your association with Him. After belief and faith, it is time to develop a personal and up close relationship with Him. This article will briefly explain how to build a close relationship with God. Ultimately, it is important to do so because it helps us love others and Him.

The first step is knowing and understanding what is expected of you. God has rules and guidelines that He expects us to live by to make and maintain a good association to Him. They are not meant to discourage us rather make a connection just as our friends would to us. He also helps us in studying and following them.

The second step is to talk to Him. You can speak to God through prayer. A prayer does not have to be complicated. Imagine yourself talking to someone you love in a respectful and loving manner. It is the same He wants you to speak and tel Him all your worries. Take the chance to say thank you for all the beautiful things and also pray for yourself and others.

Repentance is a sure way to build an association to our Maker. God is holy and without sin, and we are full of sins. Sins constrain our association to Him but when we confess and ask for forgiveness, He promises to bring us back to Him.

Learn to listen, speak if you want to create an association to our God. He speaks in His words in the Bible. In addition, His Holy Spirit helps us talk to Him. Also, the Spirit enables us understand His word so that we can hear Him speak to us. When we listen, He directs and lights our paths so that we are faithful, which is all He asks from us and the rest is left to He that provides everything.

Also, it is important to find a body of believers whom to worship with. True believers encourage one another so that everyone stays on the correct path. However, you must guard your heart as there are people who claim to speak for God but their actions are contrary.

Lastly, remember to make Him a friend. Keep Him involved in whatever you do. Just like we always keep our friends in the loop, He wants us to include Him. Share your concerns, dreams, worries, struggles and joys. Let God work in your life and also take away your sorrow and pain to replace them with love, happiness, and joy.

Always remember that He loves you more than anything. Whenever you feel so far away from His grace, find a way to come back. Repent your sins as often as possible and always allow Him to move in your life. Also, ask Him for whatever you need, always being grateful for what He gives or does not give. Tell others about His goodness and always pray for others too.
