Five ways to touch the heart of God.

Faith

According to the book of Hebrews, we inherit God's promises through faith and it is impossible to please God without faith.

Giving

Giving is another way to reach out to God's heart. Giving is one of the most important keys to achieving financial success. In Luke 6:38, Jesus says that if you give to God, men will feel compelled to give to you. Similarly, he claims, the same containers you use will be filled and returned to you multiple times.

You will get the same measurement from him if you give a good measurement.

You will receive a pressed down measure if you give one. This is what you will get if you give a running over (overflowing) measure.

Those who can give God an overflowing measure will be able to touch God's heart through giving (without restriction).

Repentance

Jonah 3:3–10 Nineveh's citizens repented. On the first day, Jonah delivered the word of God to them, and they believed that God would indeed destroy the city on the first day they heard it. They were moved by God's message and repented of their sin. They fasted and wore sackcloth and ashes, a sign of deep sorrow, from the king down. And they cried out to God in repentance and God was merciful to them and spared them.

Worship

God is on the lookout for true worshippers. Jesus said that worship should be done in spirit and truth. Worship is most likely our highest form of communication with God; it is when we consider His love for us and see His beauty with faith that we express our gratitude and adoration to Him (John 4:23-24).

Prayer and fasting

Consider God's desire for you to fast.

"So we fasted and prayed to our God for help, and he granted our request", 8:23 Ezra.

God delights in feeding our hunger. He waits for us to cry out to him in order to bring us into the fullness of what he has in store for us.

God reveals in order to redeem

The enemy you know is less persuasive than the enemy you don’t know. In most cases, God displays himself to us in dreams or in visions. So whenever God discloses it to you. He is warning you to take a step and to act upon what he revealed. One thing you should perceive is that your enemy is not your neighbor, sister, colleagues, etc. We only have one enemy, which is the devil. Satan is very manipulative and if you aren’t prayerful enough, you’ll end up falling in to his traps. The day you’ll understand, you’ll avoid despising them.

How to depend on Jesus

The things of this world cannot fill the empty space within us; only Christ can complete us. This embodies for us that we need Jesus more than anything else on this planet. God did not put us here to rely on ourselves, but to rely on him for everything. We can't survive without him, which is why the Bible cautions us not to rely on our own understanding, because our understanding can fail us and our hearts can lead us astray. Physically, we may appear to be capable of doing things on our own, but on the inside, we are slowly dying. I don’t know about you, but if you haven't yet accepted Jesus Christ as your personal Savior, it’s not too late. The Bible encourages us in Jeremiah 33:3 that if we call on God, he will answer us and tell us things we don't know. God is waiting for your call today. He is waiting for you to come to him and ask him to show you the way. Here is a short prayer to seek God: Heavenly Father, please forgive me for all of my transgressions against ...

Wait upon the LORD

Life resembles a route. Additionally, there will be stop signs and speed limit or increase signs along the route! I chose to use this analogy because there are times in life when all you have to do is wait on the Almighty. And just get more prayer done when you feel like a situation has triumphed over you. Simply put on the gear and switch it out. There are moments when we may feel as though the Lord is not seeing us, hearing us, or responding to our prayers. We can place all of our faith and belief in the living God at these times. Knowing that the Lord is with us and in charge of our lives allows us to wait on Him with great anticipation. He is going to fulfill his promise. He is going to save us. Even when we are not aware of Him, He is constantly at work for our good (Romans 8:28). Waiting on the Lord is something we can learn through prayer, seeking, active trusting, patience, and courage. When we wait on the Lord, we confidently anticipate a favorable outcome, for which we ...
