Tips On How To Have A Dialogue With God

By Harriett Crosby


As a Christian, you are going to experience that constant urge to get closer and closer to your God. If you have this hunger, there are some ideas to help you get nearer to your creator. Explored in this article are some nuggets on how to have a dialogue with God.

Prayer is of paramount importance if you really want to inch closer to your Maker. There is no better way of communicating to the Almighty than praying. Even when you do not feel like praying, imagine yourself drawing before God and seeing him enthroned upon his majestic eternal seat.

As you immerse yourself into prayer, remember that God will only answer supplications of an honest heart. Avoid boastful utterances. Own up that you are always sinning and that only the blood of the Lamb is your sure remedy. Do not dwell on big requests and imaginings and forget to ask for the little often forgotten things such as grace and wisdom.

Be sure to confess all your sins to God. Do not be overwhelmed by the present needs and forget to pray for your future survival as a Christian. The path of believers is always blocked with obstacles that only prayer can take away. Know when to daily pray and when special prayers are needed.

Seek the guidance of mature Christians. They have been into the journey for a great deal of time and well comprehend the challenges you are going through. You must not engage them physically but can also watch sermons on the televisions, on the Internet, as well as reading both published and online articles about Christian maturity.

Your mind is the best place to meet with Jehovah. He made it and left a space for Himself. Even if you do not engage Him there, there still is a space for him. Imagine Him seated on his golden throne, dispensing mercy and compassion, but also judgment and justice. Throughout scriptures, and majorly through the prophets the Almighty complains of people who worship him with their lips but not their hearts and minds.

Make use of your church minister. Make use of him as your Christian parent. Let him help you conquer inability to pray, lack of faith, and your failure to consistently read the Holy Word. As a young Christian, many Biblical accounts may prove rather tricky to understand. Since your spiritual leader has widely read the scripture, they are the right persons to help you understand the Bible better. The problem with many young people today is that they do not actively engage their spiritual guardians in a frank and honest manner. This is why they conclude by saying salvation is impossible and that faith in God is impractical.

Finally, the Bible is the ultimate symbolism of the mind of God. Many things have been said of the Bible. Despite all criticism, the Bible remains to be the documented word of God. To grow in your Christian life and to have a dialogue with God, you need to come up with a daily Bible reading program. You are going to be amazed at just how many new things you will be learning every single day.
