We all want a better relationship with God. We want to feel closer to Him, and we want the assurance that He is there for us in our times of need. But how do you build a better relationship with God? How do you know if what you are doing is working or not? This blog post will address some of these questions by presenting 7 simple steps that work for building a better relationship with your Heavenly Father!

But before we go into steps for building a better relationship, let’s take a look at what it means to have a good relationship with God

what does it mean to have a Good relationship with God?

Having a good relationship with God means that you are intimate with him. It means you are taking the necessary steps just so that you can look like him.

Often, people think that going to church, bearing Christian names equals being closer to God.

But that is not true, being close to God is far beyond that. It involves discipline, commitments, and time.

Just imagine when you initially met your spouse, you created time, you put calls across to each other, you went out on a date, just so that you can be intimate with each other.

If along the way, one of you begins to slack in commitments, the other party will be hurt and feel sidelined.

Our relationship with God is quite similar, with a little difference.

God is the one waiting for us to have a closer walk with him, even if it takes tons, decades of years for us to reallign back to his will, he is always in the waiting process, waiting for us.

Now, is that not wonderful? of course, it is.

Keep in mind, that the more we walk with God and learn to love Him more deeply than anything else, it will not only bless our relationship but also help us grow into better beings.

What is the consequence of not having a close walk with Him and how will this affect us in our lives?

How can we build a closer walk with God every day, so that it becomes just as intimate to have an even greater bond between ourselves and him.

  • Relationship with God is necessary because we are His children. He loves us unconditionally and wants to have a relationship with us just as much as you want to be in someones life who loves you for your flaws, mistakes and all the other things that make up our individuality.
  • As his child, it is important to know that God knows what we are going to do in our lives. we were created for specific purposes, and to be able to know the reason why we are here, there is a need to have a close relationship with him
  • We should have a closer walk with him because not having this bond can cause us the following consequences: feeling sad, lonely and unsatisfied – which will lead to sinning more than usual and an overall discontentment on earth.
