God is the Fountain of life: the Source of everything we need to make living worthwhile. No mortal is guaranteed success in any aspect of life's endeavour without divine help. Hence, there's a dire need to depend on God. As Christians, depending on God entails completely relying on Him in every aspect of life, at all times, and in every situation.
Here are 6 Practical Ways to Depend on God
1. Ensure you have a relationship with Him
Reliance on God commences with a personal relationship with Him. There's a need for a Father-child relationship with God. Embrace the offer of salvation-repent and accept Jesus as your Lord and Saviour, if you're yet to do so.
2. Rely on His word
God's word is a steadfast anchor, and there's a promise for every need and sphere of your life. They will work wonders for you as you discover and depend on them.
3. Focus on His faithfulness
Regularly muse over God's exploits of old and His past kindnesses and interventions in your life. This boosts and strengthens your faith.
4. Walk in the Spirit
This ensures spiritual serenity and sensitivity to decipher God's mind and direction in any aspect. It helps you overcome needless anxiety, murmuring, comparison, and complaining.
5. Pray
Prayer opens the door of grace and mercy, helping you navigate every stage and situation triumphantly. It keeps you perpetually in God's presence. It transforms your fears into faith.
6. Be grateful
Develop an attitude of gratitude; be thankful for everything. Being grateful to God demonstrates your assurance in His goodness and reinforces your faith. Make this year a year of thanksgiving; transform every waiting into worship.
In Summary
As you journey through this year depending on God, "thine expectation shall not be cut off" (Proverbs 23:18).
