Congratulations on receiving the Lord Jesus Christ. Here's a quick step-by-step guide to help you get started in your walk with God:
Step 1: Find a Bible-believing, Spirit-filled, Soul-winning, Miracle-performing Church.
Find a church that believes in the authority of the Bible, the power of the Holy Spirit, and the importance of evangelism. Look for a community where you can connect with other believers and grow in your faith as Paul says in Hebrews 10:25, “...not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near.”
Step 2: Be Filled with the Holy Spirit
Ask God to fill you with His Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit will guide and empower you to live a life that honors God and to share His love with others.
Step 3: Pray Every Day
Make prayer a daily habit. Talk to God about everything in your heart and seek His guidance and wisdom in all areas of your life.
Step 4: Read the Word Daily
Make time to read the Bible every day. Start with the Gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John) to learn more about Jesus and His teachings. Then, read through the rest of the New Testament and the Old Testament to gain a deeper understanding of God's plan for humanity. “This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success.” - Joshua 1:8
Step 5: Begin Soul-winning!
Proverbs 11:30 says, “The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life, and whoever captures souls is wise.” Share the love of Jesus with others! Look for opportunities to serve and love others in your community. Pray for those who don't know Jesus and look for ways to share the Gospel with them. Remember that sharing your faith is not about winning an argument but about sharing the hope and love that Jesus offers to all who believe.
