Here are seven steps to help you get started and become strong in your walk with God:
Get started…
Acts 2:38 Then Peter said to them, “Repent, and let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
#1 Repent—completely turn away from sin and choose to follow the Lord Jesus. Believe in His sacrifice on the cross for you and that your sins are forgiven.
#2 Be baptized—be immersed in water in recognition that you are leaving the old life behind and have become a new creature in Christ.
#3 Be filled with the Spirit—ask your heavenly Father for the gift of the Holy Spirit, so that you wil have power to live the Christian life and to share your faith with others.
Continue…
Acts 2:42 And they continued steadfastly in the apostles’ doctrine and fellowship, in the breaking of bread, and in prayers.
#4 The Word of God—read and listen to the Word of God, especially the New Testament, which contains the teaching of the early apostles. A good place to start is the Gospel of John.
#5 Fellowship—regularly attend a good local church where God’s Word is taught and the Holy Spirit is honored.
#6 Breaking bread—regularly receive communion (the Lord’s supper) in recognition that Jesus’ body was broken and His blood was shed for you.
#7 Prayers—talk to Father God. Ask Him for help for you and for others in the name of Jesus, and give Him praise.
