Welcome to a new Bible Study on “how we cultivate an intimated relationship with GOD”
Let’s reason and take an inspiring verse by verse look on the Bible study below, followed with a Summary, and uplifting prayer before GOD’S Holy throne-room!
Understanding GOD’S Desire for Relationship:
“Draw nigh to GOD, and he will draw nigh to you.” (James 4:8)
This verse emphasizes GOD’S yearning for a close connection with us. The promise is clear: the closer we approach Him the more intimately He engages with us. Understanding this truth is the first step toward cultivating an intimate relationship with GOD.
Cultivating Trust and Obedience:
“Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.”(Proverbs 3:5-6)
Intimacy with GOD requires vulnerability. Trusting Him completely and obeying His commandments creates a foundation for deeper connection. When we completely surrender our understanding and submit to His will, we open our self to His guidance and love.
Developing Communication Through Prayer:
“Pray without ceasing.”
(1 Thessalonians 5:17)
“Prayer is essential for any intimate relationship. It’s not just about asking for what we want; it’s a dialogue with GOD. Regular, heartfelt communication allows us to express our joys, struggles, and desires, fostering a deeper bond. Establishing a routine in prayer helps us remain connected, opening our hearts to divine revelations.
Engaging with GOD’S marvelous, righteous Word:
“Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.”
(Psalm 119:105)
GOD’S marvelous righteous Word is the love letter to us. Engaging with the Bible reveals His nature, promises, and desires for our lives. Meditating on His Word enables us to hear His voice, and guiding our steps and affirming His presence in our journey.
Embracing Worship and Praise:
“Enter into His gates with thanksgiving, and into His courts with praise: be thankful unto Him, and bless His name.”(Psalm 100:4)
Worship is a powerful form of intimacy. Through gratitude and praise, we should acknowledge GOD’S greatness, His infinite love, and faithfulness. In worship, we do invite His presence into our lives and express our humble adoration, and further enriching our relationship with GOD.
Let’s summarize this Bible Study together:
Developing an intimate relationship with GOD involves drawing near, trusting Him, communicating through prayer, engaging with His marvelous righteous Word, and worshiping His glorious fulfilling name. Each of these honorable aspects deepens our connection and understanding of His unconditional love for us.
Let us humble ourselves and lift our prayers, before GOD’S Holy throne-room:
Dear LORD, almighty HEAVENLY FATHER, We come before You with humble hearts longing for intimacy with You. Thank You for Your promise that when we draw near, You draw near to us.
