What is Godly Principles?

These are things we learn in the Bible, which has a significant impact on our spiritual growth and daily life as Christians. It teaches us how to pray, be protected, grow, deepen your relationship with God, and encourages us. Here are a few topics we would like you to read for a good overview.

Steps to get to know Jesus better and grow spiritually:

- Read the Bible every day: The Bible is the inspired word of God. Read it, memorise it, make it yours. Your life will never be the same. We suggest you start with John / James / Hebrews. You can also get the Bible on CD and listen to it in your car.

- Do you have a Life Verse?

- Talk to God in Prayer every day: Remember that prayer is simply having a conversation with Christ. Include Him in your day. Tell Him your hopes, frustrations, worries. God cares about us and wants to be intimately involved in what we do.

- Strive towards Sanctification

- Tell others about Christ: Don’t force it on people, but don’t be scared to share either! If your heart is overflowing, so will your mouth be. Nothing is as powerful as a personal testimony.

- Worship & serve with fellow Christians: Find a church where you feel you can grow spiritually and where the Holy Spirit is allowed to work freely. Get involved and become part of Christ’s body. Be sure to test your church against our “litmus test”.

- Get Baptised. There are two types of Baptism: Baptism in Water, and Baptism with the Holy Spirit

- Demonstrate your new life by caring for and loving others.

- Equipping yourself, so that you may be strong when the storms of life shakes your tent, you will not be moved. Isaiah 33:20. Remember: Knowledge is power!

ISAIAH 55: 6-9
Seek the Lord while he may be found; call upon him while he is near;
let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts;
let him return to the Lord, that he may have compassion on him, and to our God,
for He will abundantly pardon.
For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, declares the Lord.
