Keep Growing Closer To God

What Next?

Your trust in Jesus Christ begins a lifelong relationship.

God Commits Himself To You

God assures you that Jesus Christ has come into your life. In John 14:20, Jesus says, "At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you."
God will never leave you. "Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee." (Hebrews 13:5).
God completely forgives your sin. "13 And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses; 14 Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross;" (Colossians 2:13-14).
God assures you that you have eternal life. "These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God." (1 John 5:13).
God gives you His Holy Spirit to enable you to live the Christian life. "If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit." (Galatians 5:25).

Wouldn't you like to stop and thank God that Christ is in your life and will never leave you? To keep growing in your relationship with God . . .

G--Go to God daily in prayer-Philippians 4:6-7(KJV)
         (6) Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let
         your requests be made known unto God.
        (7) And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and
        minds through Christ Jesus.
R--Read the Bible every day- 2 Timothy 3:14-17(KJV)
        (14) But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of,
        knowing of whom thou hast learned them;
        (15) And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee
        wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.
        (16) All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for
        reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
        (17) That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.
O--Obey God moment by moment- Luke 6:46-48(KJV)
        (46) And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?
        (47) Whosoever cometh to me, and heareth my sayings, and doeth them, I will shew you
        to whom he is like:
        (48) He is like a man which built an house, and digged deep, and laid the foundation on a
        rock: and when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently upon that house, and could
        not shake it: for it was founded upon a rock.
W--Worship regularly in a local church- Hebrews 10:24-25(KJV)
        (24) And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works:
        (25) Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is;
        but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.
T --Tell others about Jesus Christ- 1 Peter 3:15-16(KJV)
        (15) But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer
        to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear:
        (16) Having a good conscience; that, whereas they speak evil of you, as of evildoers,
         they may be ashamed that falsely accuse your good conversation in Christ.
H --Holy Spirit--let Him direct your life- John 14:26(KJV)
        (26) But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name,
        he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I
        have said unto you.

Now you can share your most important relationship. "For we are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do" (Ephesians 2:10).
