First Steps
Whether you have believed for years or recently come to faith in Christ, there are a few steps everyone needs to take in following God. In this short video, Pastor Carl outlines 4 steps to launching a growing relationship with God.
Every walk with God is different but we have found there are a few steps that are standard in our walk with God. As you begin your new life in Christ, try to limit the negative influences in your life and begin to incorporate these spiritual disciplines into your life so you can cooperate with God and what He is doing in you.
- Plan to church as often as you are able. God moves in a special way when you attend church services. Holy Spirit is there working the language of God into your life.
- Read you Bible. Don’t start at the beginning. Start reading the book of Luke since it was specifically written to explain who Jesus was, why He came, and what He accomplished. You can also begin to read the book of Psalms.
- Slow down and pray every day. Begin to pray through the Lord’s Prayer as found in Matthew 6:9-13. You can learn how to pray by watching this video.
- Serve God. You serve God when you serve other people. Tell people what God is doing in your life, invite people to church, serve the congregation, and be generous with your finances.
Don’t hesitate to talk to any of the leaders at Revival Life Church about discipleship in your new walk with Jesus.
