New on the blog, Jada Edwards encourages us to invite Christ to dwell in our hearts and for us to dwell in His Word. God never intended for our communication with Him to be casual or occasional. Read the full post about intentional conversation with God:
Maybe your passion for prayer was ignited when you initially became a follower of Christ or when you had a need for God to show Himself strong during a difficult season in your life, but that passion dwindled as time went on. There are times when the priorities of life take the place of consistent prayer or the allure of our relationship with God has changed. However, God never intended for our communication with Him to be casual or occasional.
More than casual encounters or the practice of inviting Christ in times of crisis, we should make room for Christ to permanently reside within us. Jesus commanded us to allow Him to abide, or remain, in us. We know that we must abide in Him, but the reverse is true as well. To help this make sense, I think about the idea of a child who lives in the home of her parents.
How can you make more space for Christ to dwell in your heart? As you continue to surrender more to Christ, He dwells more richly in you, and you can live out His love. Today, ask God to show you how to pray loving prayers, even if they’re uncomfortable and unpopular. Choose to intercede for someone who may be hard for you to love but needs your intercession.
Jada enjoys spending time with her husband and their two children, Joah and Chloe—particularly around the dinner table.
