Daily Connecting with God Guide

Health starts with Jesus. The healthiest Christian is a crucified one. When we get in His presence, our lives begin to align with His ways and, because of that, we get healthy. Below is a simple guide to daily connecting with God. Click the download button below for a digital copy.

1. Make Space for God

Find a setting, place and time to daily connect with God. Be intentional and practical. It isn’t about how long – it is about who you are with!

2. Worship & Pray in the Holy Spirit

Start with your favorite worship song and pray in your heavenly language.

3. Pray the Lord's Prayer

In the Gospels, Jesus teaches us how to pray. Use this as a starting guide when praying to God every day.

"Pray then like this: 'Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name. Your Kingdom come, Your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.'" — Matthew 6:9–13

Our Father in heaven, hallowed be Your name...

Begin praying by declaring, "Father, you are HOLY!"

Your Kingdom come, Your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven... 

Pray for God's perfect will to be done in your life. "God, not my will, but Yours!"

Give us this day our daily bread...

Tell God what it is that you need. He is our Provider!

And forgive us our debts...

Repent. Lay down your sins before God and ask for forgiveness.

As we also have forgiven our debtors...

List by name those you need to forgive and ask God for help!

And lead us not into temptation...

Grace is a gift we all have access to. Open the gift and accept God's grace to overcome sin.

But deliver us from evil...

Declare, "No spirit but the Holy Spirit" is welcome in your life!

6. Give God Room to Speak to You

"Speak Lord, Your servant is listening!" Write down what He says. This is where God encourages and corrects you by His Spirit. 

7. Ask Him to Teach You His Ways

Exodus 33:13b says,

"If you are pleased with me, teach me your ways so I may know you and continue to find favor with you."

After He speaks to you, ask Him to teach you. Repeat what you heard God say out loud. Write down what He says and obey Him. This is a way we steward God's words.

Social Media Fast

As part of our Healthy series, we’re taking a one-week break from social media to make room for something greater—deeper connection with God.

While our Sunday services will continue to be live-streamed, our regular social channels will be quiet as we intentionally step away from the noise and create space to hear His voice.

We invite you to join us in this week-long social media fast and use the extra time to practice the rhythms found in our 7 Steps to Daily Connect with God Guide: make space for God, worship and pray, read His Word, and give Him room to speak.

Health starts with Jesus. As we spend time in His presence, our hearts, minds, relationships, and lives begin to align with His ways.

Join us this week as we unplug from distraction and reconnect with what matters most.
