Simple Ways to Enjoy God

We tend to think of God as isolated to church, bible studies, or worship time during church.

God is the creator of everything - James tells us that every good gift is from above… Do we believe the lie that life is purposeless (nihilism) or think that everything material is evil (Gnosticism)?

We are commanded to LOVE God & Love others.

Loving God includes worshiping him through our day-to-day lives - and not solely on Sunday.

Our actions WILL be counter-cultural.

Ways to enjoy God & His creation in simple ways:

The world around us: Nature, walks, creation & beauty.

Love & humanity: relationships - enjoying moments with family, friends, and your church community - there is great importance in prioritizing community.

Creativity: Hard work - Art, creativity, being good stewards of what God has given us, the “flow” that comes when we are working in our talents and gifts given by God.

Importance of creating a habit of doing what connects you to God:

What situations or things bring you closer to God?

How can you incorporate more of this into your day-to-day?

Are you prioritizing ways to fight culture & reroot your mind on the goodness of God?

Simple ideas:

Carving out time in the day to walk in nature.

Time spent in His word (podcasts, devotionals, quiet time)

Dedicate time each week to meet in the community or spend time with loved ones.

What are your gifts or talent and how can you use them to glorify God?

What is one thing you might need to give up that is flesh-glorifying instead of God-glorifying? (music, tv, spending, idolization)

Scripture reference:

James 1:17

Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow due to change.

Proverbs 21:21

Whoever pursues righteousness and kindness will find life, righteousness, and honor.

Psalm 16:11

You make known to me the path of life; in your presence, there is fullness of joy; at your right hand are pleasures forevermore.

1 John 2:15

Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him.
