I am averagely consistent in praying.

But then, I'll find myself doing what is not right in the sight of God.

And what is wrong with that? ... don't ever believe you can live a sinless life.... the reason why you pray and ask for forgiveness of sins... the reason why you pray and ask for strength to resist temptations.... to be strong in faith. Overzealousness is not something to pray for... nor strive for.... that os not in the plan. When Jesus freed the ox or whatever from the field on the Sabbath.... didn't the overzealous Sabbath keepers jacked Him up for breaking the Sabbath? What was His response? Great job!... you guys are really enforcing the Word?.... or ehmmm....... don't get it twisted....the Sabbath was made for man.... not man for the Sabbath?

I suggest you read Romams 12..... and let verse two be your basic guide.

Kobojunkie:
Obedience if the key as far as God's covenants are concerned.

It is the key to the Old Covenant

And He made sure to let the people know of this then,

And it remains the key as far as Jesu Christ is concerned. Obedience of the commandments of Jesus Christ(the New Covenant), all 46 or so of them.

According to Jesus Christ,

Not to quarel or say anything bad but he said that he is trying and sometimes he knows and sees that he is getting it right at one moment, then, suddenly, he is back, doing all the things he knows not to do and he did not really desire to do.

So I think he is asking how does he acquire the character of Doing Only That Which is Right (Righteousness).

How do I tend to increase my overzealousness in serving God for a lifetime?

Ecclesiastes 7: 16 Do not be overrighteous, neither be overwise— why destroy yourself? 17 Do not be overwicked, and do not be a fool— why die before your time? 18 It is good to grasp the one and not let go of the other. Whoever fears God will avoid all extremes.

Please, how do I go about administering a longterm relationship with the Lord?

That Romans 12 ehn

The first thing to do is to acknowledge your sins and ask the Lord to deliver you and forgive you . when you do that with all your heart, you will be delivered and given a power to live above sins . When the work of salvation is wrought in your heart, the power of God will give you victory over sin . May God undertake for you

What do you mean by serving God?

Rev. 2,3, just remember were you have fallen and repent.
1 Corinthians 6:9. KJV
Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, [10] Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.
Christ is coming soon

This is a sign that you have outgrown your present state. Your soul thirst for higher.

There are people who prefer to buy ready made cloth and there are those who prefer to buy the material and see it according to their size. First they measure themselves using a meter rule then they cut off some pieces of material from the one bought in the market.

As we grow older, our body size increases. We need bigger tops. We do not keep forcing the smaller clothes on ourself. We will either feel uncomfortable or the cloth will get torn. We simply discard it or give it to our younger one and go get another cloth that fits us.

Unfortunately ,we do not adapt the same concept to our belief. As a kid, we are told what to believe,vwe do not choose them because we are too young to make decision. As we grow older, we begin to outgrow our religion. Certain belief no longer appeal to us . We have more questions than answer. We are told to rely on faith. This is the way the religion want to tie is down to it . Like a teacher who loves his student so much he does not want her to get promoted. He threatened his student with punnishnent to prevent his moving to next level. Such love cannot be in the best interest of the child. Religion threaten it’d adherent with hell to keep them glued together.


This is a sign that we need to try another cloth.we do not owe our religion any form of loyalty. We need to let go in search of better belief. Stagnant water attracts mosquitoes. One who stays so long in one belief would have a retarded manner of thinking.

We can go to the library or internet and read alternative religion practice.we can choose one that suits us and explore.Trying a new religion is a faster way for behavioral Change.

Every new religion sprung up from a founder who was not comfortable with existing religion of his time. Bobby Henderson invented pasterfaranism. Buddhism broke out as a social protest against Hinduism caste system. Jesus deviated from Judaism. Each religion was created out of dissatisfaction wilh existing status quo.

Each of the founder created a religion that fit their personalities. As long as you know yourself, you can create your religion that suit whom you are. The involve eradicating the part of the beliefs that do not appeal to your values., authentic self.Jesus valued forgiveness ahead of revenge. Love became his central theme. Buddha focused on how to stop world suffering . Detachment was his answer .

Each one of us can focus on any part of the world and try to make it better .we must not go about preaching our new religion to others . Living it in our daily activities is Paramount. As long as we keep wearing the garment of another founder, we will not be truely comfortable.we remain inauthentic. What fits A cannot fit B. This leads to hypocrisy

Righteousness89:


I will give what has Helped me Greatly in my walk with God.
1.Make God your Number 1 Pirioty in Everything

2. Let no day pass without you Eating from the Word of God. ( start with at least 3-5 Chapters Everyday. As you go on you Increase it). The Word of God is a Purifier! The More you Read! The More you are Cleansed and Purified.
As you Read the Word , you act on what you Read. it's not by Power or Skill.

3. Commmunication with God is very Vital. We communicate through Prayers. Pray for People, pray for Sinners! Pray for Expansion of the Gospel, Pray For yourself ( Prayers for yourself should be Majorly on Spiritual things that will advance your walk with God).
Pray in the spirit! Ask DADDY for His Grace on daily Basis!

4. Be mindful of what your Eyes sees!
There a Certain friends you need to cut off from or treat with a very long spoon
When your Eyes sees what it's not supposed to see, Make sure you Repent immediately..

5. Get to listen to Real Messages and Hard Truths from GENUIE Servants of God..
Listen to Hard Bitter Truths from the Word of God. Some may get you annoyed but they will groom you and Strengthen you in your Walk with God..

MaxInDHouse:


All you need now is to IDENTIFY the true Christian group so that when you're in their midst you can start imitating those who are worshiping God in spirit and truth {Hebrew 13:7} you're just going through the normal process every sheep belonging to Christ do pass. We will not feel comfortable until we're certain that we're doing things right.
As a sincere and honest hearted person, if you're not in the midst of the congregation of the true God, you won't feel contented {Psalms 1:1} you will always feel that something is missing somehow, that's what you're experiencing now!
So what you need is to IDENTIFY the group God is using to dispense spiritual food in this end time, of course they're also imperfect humans like everyone else but because Jesus is in there midst {Matthew 28:20} you will notice the fruit of God's holy spirit permeating their gathering! Galatians 5:22-23 compare to Matthew 7:16-18

God bless you!

Lol!.. you and your teaching of "

Do not neglect the gathering of the brethren. Attend services frequently. Often times you will hear messages that would strengthen you.

So I think he is asking how does he acquire the character of Doing Only That Which is Right (Righteousness).

That is why I said OBEDIENCE is the key! How does a toddler learn to walk? He does it by attempting one step at a time - he never quits until he gets it right. Jesus Christ did say that anyone who wishes to enter His the Kingdom of Heaven needs to become like a child in their thinking.

What is that which is right according to the New Covenant? The commandments of Jesus Christ. And what did Jesus Christ say we ought to do in order to do the will of God? He said to obey.

One first needs to learn what Jesus Christ commands, of course. Then one needs to make the step to obey at one moment, and then the next moment, and so on. Obedience starts with taking one obedient step at a time - obeying one command, then another, and then another, and before you know it, God Himself will step in and begin to do it for you. According to Jesus Christ, when we abide in Him(obey Him), then He will abide in us.

Arkmanbuddy:
Obedience to the word of God which includes praying without ceasing, asking God in faith.

Well, yes, prayer is a part of HIs commandment we are to obey. But the key to God's blessings and wisdom is not prayer, but obedience.

Bro. You are not the only one struggling.

It's a gradual process. Keep praying and study the Word of God (Bible).

Run away from every occasion of sin ie desist from anything that make u to sin.

By God's grace, it shall be well

The first thing to know is that others have passed through that stage before and eventually overcame, read the book of Romans chapter 7. What you need is a sanctification experience. When you experience sanctification, the root of sin which is your old nature that is responsible for you doing what you don't want to do is dealt with by God and it wont have power over you to make you do those things anymore. Sanctification is setting you free from the power of sin and to be set free comes by knowing the truth. John 17:17, John 8:32.

Study your bible, meditate upon it(focus your thoughts on God's word and memorise the scriptures) then it will begin to open your understanding and that understanding will let you experience the freedom God gives you in your inside to be set free
