Worship is one of the tools that can be used in effective prayer because it keeps our focus on God and causes us to see the situation through His eyes

One of the ways we can build our friendship with God is through our trust & devotion to Him

One of the ways of growing closer in friendship to God is by reading His Word-The Bible.

Psalm 119:105, Psalm 119:11

One of the ways to grow in our friendship with God is when we praise & worship Him. Acts 16:25, Psalm 100

A friendship with God can be strengthened through Prayer. When prayer becomes more than a transaction but an act of fellowship, our friendship with God can grow. Luke 5:16- Jesus often withdrew to lonely places and prayed, and one day he went to a mountain side to pray and spent the night praying to God

Did you know that time with God, intentional pursuit of His presence and living according to His precepts and abiding by His Words can make us relevant wherever we go.

What does it mean to abide in God and how can our friendship and relationship with Him grow as we abide in Him.

John 15 tells us more about how we can abide in Him

Committing to a person shows them your level of interest in the relationship and friendship. Commitment is better demonstrated through actions. 2 Timothy 2:12- If we suffer, we shall also reign with Him

How can you build a friendship with God through proximity.

He wants to be in your presence also.

Psalm 42:1 -“As the deer longs for streams of water, so I long for you, O God. I thirst for God, the living God. When can I go and stand before him?” NLT

Intimacy

A friendship with God is something that can be developed as an intimate relationship with Him is pursued intentionally.
