Wisdom that sticks with you - straight from God's Word.
“The Lord never even hears the prayers of the wicked, but he answers the prayers of all who obey him,” (Proverbs 15:29, CEV).
Through our actions, God can become either aloof toward us or close at hand. It’s up to us. As James says, “Draw near to God and He will draw near to you,” (James 4:8).
Drawing near to God requires repentance of sins we've committed, obedience to His law, and humility in prayer. Sometimes, when events in our lives seem unclear we need to take advantage of the tool of fasting to zero in on our relationship with God and how we affect those around us. To learn more about how and when a spiritual fast is applied please read the free Bible study aid Tools for Spiritual Growth .
What can you do today to obey God in greater measure?
