Here are a few ways you can starting knowing Jesus.

4 Simple Tips About How To Know Jesus Better

1. Say Your Prayers

Talk to Jesus through the gift of prayer and listen when you pray. Do you have a friend that always talks and never lets you respond? Annoying isn’t it? Instead of your prayers being like that, reflect on your life. Express gratitude. And when you ask for help, pause to listen for answers.

Make your prayers personal. Although you may not have flocks and fields to pray over like in the biblical days, you can pray about your relationships with friends and family. And pray often because the scripture tells us to “pray always”. And if you can’t pray out loud, keep your prayer in your heart (1 Thessalonians 5:16-17).

2. Read About Him In The Scriptures

Knowing Jesus requires spending time with Him. One of the best ways to spend time with Jesus is by spending time in the Word. You can start by reading a chapter a day and asking yourself two questions. What did God say to me? Then write a prayer of response by answering the question, what did you say to Him?

Reading the four gospels in the New Testament tells us a lot about the world Jesus lived in. And more importantly, what He is like and what He taught.

3. Make Him The Most Important Part Of Your Life

Every issue, victory, decision, or setback include Him. If He’s your Lord, then your life should revolve around Him and what’s important to Him.

4. Talk About Him With Your Friends

One of the best ways how to know Jesus better is to talk about Him with friends. After all, if someone is important to you, you will talk about them with people you know. Right? So, share what He is doing in your life, how He is at work work in you and your world.

In Conclusion

Before you read the Bible, pray and ask Jesus to speak to you and teach to you from His Word. Understanding is gained, transformation happens, and a relationship with Jesus is developed in that conversation.
