How shall I Approach God

Doctrine  by 
Horatius Bonar

“How should I go to God?” This can be the most important question we can ask ourselves. Many believers think that they don’t need to go to God because He is already with us. However, we can see in Genesis how human falls into sin. We got separated from God, and the need to seek Him arose.
This collection of Dr. Bonar’s writings deals with the theme of Christian assurance. He tells us that there is a life after death and urges us to be sure of the home to which we are going. Only if we confess our sin and ask Him to cleanse us can we go to Him. It is the first step to restore our fellowship to God where we fear no evil and our sorrows are turned into joy. So let this work serves as a compass as we seek His path.

Words fail to convey how fundamental prayer is. In so many ways, the exercise of prayer is precious, and it is by the great effect of prayer that His devout children obtain those treasures which are put up for them with the heavenly Father. In this revered religious literature, French theologian and pastor John Calvin presents the rules for right prayer. Prayer, first and foremost, is about oneself. Prayer shapes character and is an essential discipline of the Christian life. It’s the expression of our desires to our heavenly Father, confessions of our faults, and thankful recognition of his blessings. It’s also a responsibility; that God compels Christians to pray is a sufficient incentive. In Calvin in Prayer, Christians looking to strengthen their relationship with God are enlightened to an improved practice of prayer with kind yet firm guidance, making it an excellent exercise either by personal or communal means.
