Staying spiritually grounded in a secular world can be difficult, unless you have the right guidance.
How do Christians stay spiritually grounded in a secular world?
Here are 5 ways:
1. Praying
Praying daily keeps Christians spiritually grounded.
Do you feel like you’re sinking into the abyss of the secular world?
The secular world can make Christians feel pressured to follow the crowd. If you’re feeling pressured or overwhelmed, give the Lord your problems in prayer.
2. Faith
Having faith is an important way to stay spiritually grounded in a secular world.
Living in a secular world can create fear for Christians. Let yourself trust in the Lord and His goodness.
The secular world can be a very negative place, so give yourself permission to feel positive.
Stress is a very powerful emotion. Let go and let God. Putting your faith and trust in the Lord will give you a peace that surpasses all understanding.
3. Avoid
By avoiding secular objects, you can stay spiritually grounded.
Not all television programs are bad. But be discerning about the programs you watch, or choose Christian programming to stay spiritually grounded. Avoid programs that are against your Christian values.
What you let into your mind is what you live.
Listening to secular music can also make it difficult to remain spiritually grounded, but listening Christian alternatives that glorify God can be very powerful.
And while the internet contains many spiritual dangers and pitfalls as well, it doesn’t have to be your enemy. Search for positive information on the internet and be very careful to avoid the dangers.
4. Read
To stay spiritually grounded in a secular world, read the Bible.
God’s Word is your strength and weapon against the secular world. Daily reading of the Bible gives you the battle armor and power to fight against the enemy.
God’s Word is your encouragement against the negatives of the secular world.
5. Church
There is nothing more powerful than going to church to keep you spiritually grounded in a secular world.
When you go to church, you’ll find comfort among your church family. Continue to seek the Lord by attending church regularly and surrounding yourself with other Christians who will lift you up.
So, if you feel yourself drowning in the secular world right now, pray, have faith, avoid negativity, read your Bible, and attend church to stay spiritually grounded.
