How do we go from surface-level Christianity to walking with Jesus to walking on water unafraid of the storms because even the wind and waves obey Him? It takes the Holy Spirit's conviction to change us from the inside. When God is in us, the mighty work of sanctification transforms us to true Christlikeness. But we have to listen, submit, and obey.
