Having a Relationship with Jesus

Once you have accepted Christ as your savior and begin to engage in regular prayer and saying I need Jesus, Bible reading and get plugged into a local Church, it is important to develop a deeper, personal relationship with Jesus. "Make every effort to add to your faith goodness; and to goodness, knowledge; and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness; and to godliness, brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness, love" (2 Peter 1:3-8).

The Bible says that we are to “to live a life worthy of the calling you have received. Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love.” (Ephesians 4: 1-3). God wants us to grow in our “knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ” (Ephesians 4:13).

The Apostle Paul wrote this about his spiritual growth: “When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood behind me” (1 Corinthians 13:11).

Please Memorize These Verses and keep proclaiming "I NEED JESUS" because without him we are nothing and within  Him we are new creatures.
