To live life as Jesus created it involves developing a personal relationship with Him. It involves talking with Him in prayer. It involves listening to Him as you read God’s Word … and then applying what God says to your life. If it’s a promise, claim it. If it’s a command, obey it. If it’s encouragement, accept it. If it’s a warning, heed it. Jesus said, “I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing” (John 15:4).
