When we ask Jesus to come into our life, we are inviting the Holy Spirit into our heart. The Spirit is there to guide us, lead us, to be our comforter. We simply do not at first know what to do with this new consultant.
It takes practice just like exercising, we have to work the muscles to keep them in shape. We can put wood into a fireplace, start a fire, but if we do not tend to it and feed it the fire will soon go out and die. Keep the fire burning.
The new spirit needs to be fed and kept alive to help us grow with God. We will be tested, tormented, torn down, but keep that fire burning. Feed the spirit and learn new knowledge to grow on.
How we say? Well the bible was given to us by God. Yes, it was written by humans many years ago. That is true, but they were anointed to write the word that God intended for us to know and think about. Also, think about how many years this book has survived, and so many tried to get rid of it. It is still alive and still has all the information we will ever need to live a good life. Some of it does not make sense to us, but when we are ready, God will reveal what we need to know, and when we need to know it and when we are ready.
Daily, read at least a verse or two, and pray and pray often. You can pray anytime; while driving, taking a bath, while doing dishes or where ever you want. No one can take this away from you.
Keep that fire burning. There are plateau's that we reach at times, when it seems God wants us to rest and then we do not do much but then we are at a place of rest and reflection. We can just go along for awhile and then God will reveal something new for us to do or think about. Never quit reading and praying.
Prayer of thanks, there is a lot to be thankful for.
Prayer of love, for yourself and for others.
Prayer of rejoicing for what God has done for us and others.
Prayer for strength to learn and keep the evil one away.
In order to remain strong in Christ, we must be with God daily.
God Bless
