HOW TO KEEP BURNING FOR THE LORD!
Maintaining your spiritual life requires serious discipline.
It requires fervency ,
Romans 12:11 KJV
[11]Not slothful in business; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord.
You should give NO place for laziness as regards your Christian life/walk.
You MUST desire to be a serious Christian.
If your heart's desire is to remain spiritually fit , then you must stay with the basics.
What basics?
YOUR PERSONAL DEVOTION...
Personal prayers
Personal bible studies
Personal retreats
AND FELLOWSHIP WITH THE BRETHREN...
You see friends, maintaining your spiritual life includes What You DO alone in your private life, as well as your fellowship with the brethren ,
Hebrews 10:24-25KJV
[24]And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works:
[25]Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.
When we gather , we provoke ourselves to good works... very important!
LET'S TALK ABOUT YOUR PRIVATE LIFE A LITTLE BIT,
What do you do on your own ?
How has your private fellowship with the Lord been so far ?
Has it been consistent ?
You see, no matter how sound your local church is, if you are not developing yourself privately , and practicing what you are being taught where you fellowship , you will never be spiritually effective , you will never grow !
It's very very important you try not to miss your DAILY prayer and study time.
Even if it's one hour (prayer and bible study) you can DO daily and maintain it, please DO it!
Every great man used by God today followed the route of consistency in the things of the Spirit (prayer , bible study , keeping friends who are serious Christians)!
So, pray in the Spirit personally , and regularly ,
1Corinthians 14:18 KJV
[18]I thank my God, I speak with tongues more than ye all.
This must have been in Paul's private life..
He prayed more in the Spirit person
