Tip 1: Read the Word – You know the Lord best by reading His Word and seeing what it says about Him AND about you! Hiding His Word in your heart will help you to recall scripture during times you need it. This is why scripture memorization is so important. To get started reading the Word on a regular basis, you can visit this free monthly Bible Reading Plans page.

Tip 2: Pray – Speaking with anyone will help you to know them better and will help you to deepen your relationship with them. Speaking with the Lord is no different. Spend time telling Him your hopes, your fears, your struggles. Spend time listening and seeing what He may have to speak to you! Pray the Word! There is nothing more powerful than praying from scripture when you need a breakthrough!

Tip 3: Do For Others – Spending time in service to others, simply because they are God’s children, will help you see people through His eyes. This will help you to draw more on His love for people and His love for you. We are not to only be hearers of the Word but doers as well. (James 1:22) This helps us live out the example of Jesus in our lives and you never know whether or not you are the only Bible someone ever reads!

Tip 4: Spend Time in Praise and Worship – When we love on our spouse, it helps deepen our feelings for them. While we should not rely on “feelings”, spending time in praise and worship helps us “feel” connected to Him. Aside from the fact that we should be praising Him just for who He is, it does have a very real way of making us come away from the world and focus solely on Him and His goodness.
