Daily connection with God.


Daily connection with God. Having a personal relationship with Jesus Christ begins at realize our (daily) need of Him, admitting that we are sinners, repent of our sins and asking him into our hearts to be the authority in our lives. God, our heavenly Father has always wanted to be near us and have a personal relationship with us. Before Adam sinned in the Garden of Eden (Genesis chapter 3), he and Eve knew God intimately, personally. They walked with him in the Garden and talked directly with him. Because of man's sin, we were separated from Him. He is perfect, and can not live between sin. Before Jesus died on the cross, people had to sacrifice animals when they sinned, because the Bible says that the wages of sin is death. John 15: 5 I am the vine, you are the branches; He who abides in me and I in him, bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing.

What many people do not know or realize, or not interested, it is that Jesus gave us the most amazing gift - the opportunity to spend eternity with Him and God the Father if we believe, or trust him. "for the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord." (Romans 6:23). God sent His Son to take our sin, was killed, and then was lifted again, getting His victory over sin and death. "There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit." (Romans 8: 1). If we accept His gift, we become acceptable to God and can have a personal relationship with Him.

We must include God in our daily life, just as we would any other member of our family, only that it would far more important than anyone!

1-We must pray to Him,

2 Read His Word and meditate on his verses in an effort to get to know him better and

3-Are willing to do His will.

We must pray for wisdom, which is one of the greatest assets we have. We must take our requests to Him, getting screened in the name of Jesus. Jesus said, "Ye have not chosen me, but I chose you, and I have appointed you to go and bear fruit and that your fruit should remain; so that whatever you ask the Father in My name, He may give you. "(John 15:16) Jesus is the one who loves us enough to give His life for us, and He is the one who formed the bridge over the chasm there was between God and us. And God who sent Jesus to do so; they are one and the same, and they deserve our honor, praise and worship.

This personal relationship with Jesus is so hard to get us as we might think, and there is a mysterious formula to get it. As soon as we become children of God, we receive the Holy Spirit who will begin work in our hearts. We must pray without ceasing, read the Bible and join a Bible-believing church; all these things will help us grow spiritually. Trusting God to help us every day and believing that He is our sustainer, it is how to establish a relationship with Him
