In practice, receiving God, inviting Him in, is, most of all, really about inviting in His teachings which He gives through His Son—inviting them in with faith, and embracing them. For example you can do this in practical ways such as this: Meditate in quiet on a saying of Jesus saying it over and over letting it sink in. Keeping it deep within for a while with a hope that it stays permanently. E.g. “Anything you ask in my name, I will do it.” “Ask that your joy may be full.” “And I will do anything you ask so that the Son may bring glory to the Father.” “If you remain in me and my words remain in you, you can ask me anything and I will do it.” “This is to my Father’s glory that you bear much fruit: Fruit that will last.” Then going out and practicing the teachings you embrace, this too is vital, lest it be mere words. But first let the words really sink in, letting yourself have time to fully digest them, spiritually, deep within, before going out and putting them into practice as opportunity arises, but with understanding. I find this results in great things. And leads to real knowledge of the Father and the Son, in actual real fellowship with them, as they personally form their bond of fellowship with you in your life. Then do this all your life. Now one meditation message is the most vital of all. The Christ died for you. Crucified for you. And God raised him from the dead to live forever as your Lord. Let this be what you never forget above all else. We remember it together.
