Maybe you feel like God is distant, your prayers aren't working, or you've made too many mistakes for Him to want to be close to you anymore. The truth may surprise you. In this Bible study, you'll discover what Scripture actually says about your relationship with God under the New Covenant. You'll learn why your standing with God is based on what Jesus did, not your performance, how your friendship with God has been restored, and why nothing can separate you from His love. We'll also talk about the difference between condemnation and conviction, why the enemy wants you to believe God has pulled away, and simple biblical ways to draw near to God and enjoy His presence every day. If you've ever wondered, "Why do I feel far from God?" or "How do I get closer to God?", this teaching is for you. **CHAPTERS** 00:00 What to do if you feel far from God 00:25 Welcome to The Increase Life 01:45 Why God isn't distant from you 03:30 Romans 5: You have peace with God 05:30 Your standing with God is based on Jesus 07:50 God loves you in the middle of your trials 09:20 Christ died for you while you were still a sinner 11:40 You're a son or daughter, not a sinner 13:20 Your friendship with God has been restored 15:45 James 4:8 Draw near to God 16:20 Psalm 100 Enter His presence with thanksgiving 18:35 Build your faith and renew your mind 19:20 Romans 8 There is now no condemnation 21:55 Conviction vs. condemnation 24:20 Nothing can separate you from God's love 26:15 Closing prayer **SCRIPTURES IN THIS TEACHING** Romans 5:1-11 Romans 8 James 4:8 Psalm 100:4-5 John 15:13-15 1 Corinthians 6:17 Hebrews 10 Philippians 3:13-14 Psalm 107:20 **MORE RESOURCES** Books: https://increaseministries.com/books YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TravisPeters/videos Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/5qwNtJ3M2ZQOnrTzXhMqZI Give: https://increaseministries.com/give **ABOUT** I'm Travis Peters.
