10 Step Plan to Christian Spirituality :)
Based on the highly recommended A.W. Tozer book “Pursuit of God”
1) Pursue God Pursue God as a life long activity. Be as Moses, who after spending time with God on Mount Sinai still desired to know God more. (Exodus 33:12-21) 2) Pursue World Apathy Root from your heart all sense of worldly possessing. Set your heart apart for God only and his indwelling. (Luke 11:13) 3) Repent & Deny Self Push into the manifest presence of God through spiritual experience. You must first remove the sinful veil of your heart to enter into the Holy of Holies. 4) Pursue Faith The eternal world will come alive to you as soon as you reckon upon its reality. The issue is lack of faith. You need to act the worshipper, not the scientist. 5) Realize God is Everywhere God is everywhere. God is manifest everywhere. When you feel the spiritual inward longing, do something about it – He is available. (Psalm 27:8) 6) Realize God is Speaking God spoke and created. God is speaking in nature, God is speaking in your conscience and heart, God is speaking through His written word (bible). Listen. 7) Focus on God Meditate on God always. Focus on God always. (Phil 4:8, John 3:14-15, Num 21:4-9 Heb 12:1-2) 8) Submit to God Let your heart say “Be thou exalted”. (Mt 6:19-24, Rom 6:15-18, Luke 17:1-10) 9) Get Real With God Be meek. Remove pride (quit setting self up as mini-God). Remove pretense (do not hide real self). Remove artificiality (worth comes not from status). 10) Live to Honor God Do not split your life into the secular and the sacred. Give your all to God. Do all things to the glory of God. (1 Cor 10:31) |
