2 Keys In Seeking God by yommyuk: 9:48am On Apr 19, 2015 |
Deepening our relationship with God—through discovering His character and His will for our lives—is achieved in several ways. Each one, while familiar, represents an important discipline in pursuing the Lord. MEDITATION Meditation is an excellent way to build our relationship with God. It involves reading a Bible passage several times with the express purpose of hearing from the Lord. Then, as we keep up diligent, sustained concentration, the Holy Spirit will communicate to us through the verses. Studying the Scriptures allows us to draw from many passages to gain a broader, deeper understanding of God’s character, plans, and promises. We benefit by asking ourselves questions such as, What does this study reveal about His nature? Is there a divine promise to remember? A command to obey? An example to follow? SPIRITUAL DISCIPLINE THRU PRAYER Another key spiritual discipline—prayer—must undergird our meditation and study. Encountering God requires both a listening ear and receptive heart. Recognizing how God operates in our lives and in others’ circumstances will help us desire to pursue Him. 1 Chronicles 16:11 Seek the Lord and his strength; seek his presence continually! # Deuteronomy 4:29 But from there you will seek the Lord your God and you will find him, if you search after him with all your heart and with all your soul. Proverbs 8:17 I love those who love me, and those who seek me diligently find me . IT IS WELL. GOD BLESS ![]() 1 Like 1 Share |
