Believers 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 in making and maintaining a good association to God is knowing what He expects of you and doing exactly that. Just that it does not make being friends to someone you barely know or understand, knowing and following the rules and guidelines God gives for making a connection to Him. The rules and directives are in His laws and is upon you to study and follow them through His guidance.

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.

In conclusion, know that God loves you. It is the most important thing to remember. He will forgive you when you ask and will heal you if you are sick. The most important thing to remember is to ask Him. Spend time with Him and always be grateful for what He has and is doing in your life. Do not be selfish, share with others His goodness and pray for them too.
