It’s okay to admit that you feel stuck in a rut in terms of your faith. Acknowledging this flaw will help you overcome this challenge. Follow these eight tips so you can connect with God on a regular basis. 

Have a Clear Plan 

If you want to strengthen your relationship with God, it’s essential to have a clear plan. That means you should choose a time, place, and method for connecting with God. For example, Jesus talked to the Father early in the morning. He also did it in secluded areas.

Although God is with you anywhere and anytime, setting a time and place will allow you to boost the habit. Ask God for guidance on the best way to connect with Him. 

Worship in Different Forms

There are several creative ways to worship God. It can be as simple as whispering your praises to Him while driving or singing worship songs while you’re doing the chores. 

You don’t have to sing aloud or tell everyone you worship God. You can express your heart freely in your own ways. Take advantage of your talents. Perhaps you want to paint, garden, or dance for God. It also helps to attend worship sessions at church so you can be one with your community.

Acknowledge Him in Quietness and Simplicity

“Be still and know that [He is] God.” – Psalm 46:10

Connecting with God in solitude produces rhythms that allow you to focus your love and attention on Him. As mentioned, you can connect with God as you perform the most mundane tasks, such as driving, cooking, or gardening.

Practice getting away from people, social media, and other unnecessary distractions so you can listen to what God is trying to say.

Serve Other People

Being of service to others is a common concept among different faith-based organizations. Balance your solitude with the community. Find people who share your faith and try to see God in their faces. That way, you may be more inspired to serve them. Find out how to start connecting with your community in different ways. 

It also helps to connect with people who need help strengthening their faith. Hold donation drives, share God’s words, and help them overcome challenges. 

Listen to God

Communication with God is not only about talking to Him. It’s also about listening. Spirituality entails seeking a meaningful connection with anything more significant than you. And the greatest way to do this is by listening. 

God can speak to you through the Bible. Continue reading the Scriptures and integrate the messages into your life. God can also talk to you through other people. Do not be afraid to meet people with the same faith and understand how their life experiences, thoughts, and values can make your life more meaningful. 

Read the Bible

At work, we must read all emails we receive and respond accordingly. The same is true with our faith. God gave us the Bible to read, integrate, and apply to our daily lives. It is a long love letter containing God’s promise for the people, especially for you. 

The Bible also includes information about the Holy Trinity. Learn more about God the Father, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit. Discover God’s love for you and what you should do to be worthy of His reward. 

Be Thankful

Finding something to be thankful for is the best remedy to grief, sadness, anger, or disappointment that comes your way. Sometimes we ignore how fortunate we are because it’s easier to spot the pain than the comfort. The little things, such as the food you eat, the roof that shelters you, and the loved ones that support you, are all signs of God’s presence.

Try keeping a gratitude journal to keep track of the small and big blessings in your life. This will encourage you to stay connected with God. 

Reflect More Often

Slow down! Don’t let the hustle and bustle of daily life hinder you from reflecting. No matter how much we pray, worship, and read the Bible, we can still miss God’s words. Reflect thoroughly and intentionally so you can strengthen your relationship with God. List down faith-related questions, try breathing exercises, and start meditating.
