Ideas On How To Have A Dialogue With God

By Harriett Crosby


Every Christian wants to be closer to their God. If you experience this urge, you are not alone. The real issue is how to bring yourself nearer to Him. Discussed in this piece are tips on how to have a dialogue with God.

For those who really want to draw into the presence of their Maker, prayer will be a powerful tool. It is the best way to converse directly to the Supreme Creator. We all suffer periods of prayer difficulties. The best way to ensure that you pray constantly is by drawing a prayer journal.

When indulging in your prayers, be honest to God and yourself. Do not be boastful or proud. In fact, you should accept yourself as a hopeless sinner who has been freely ransomed by Christ. Do not pray for just small things because the Lord is the possessor of all things. Seemingly little things like asking for guidance and wisdom should be taken into account.

Confession of sins is a key step when talking to the Everlasting One. Say your present problems as well as other unknown ones that are bound to inevitably crop up in the course of your earthly stay. To guide you, you may come up with a prayer journal so that you can keep the track record of your petitions and the answers thereof.

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 pastor or priest. This helps you get the most recommended guidance as far as matters Christian are concerned. The Bible will especially present puzzling paradoxes that take the advice of a seasoned theologian to untangle. Without fear, talk to your church head. In most cases, they are going to schedule special times for both of you to learn the word of God, pray together, and generally exchange ideas on the difficult Christian journey. Avoid seeking religious counsel from secular sources that have no understanding of importance of Christian values.

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.
