If reading the Bible just becomes a routine...

0:00:06.033,0:00:11.200
‘Every day I must read my verse, read my chapter.’

0:00:11.200,0:00:18.700
If prayer just becomes a ritual -

0:00:18.700,0:00:24.566
I say the words but I don't mean them -

0:00:24.566,0:00:27.900
then the heart is no longer required

0:00:27.900,0:00:32.300
and the Spirit can no longer inspire.

0:00:32.300,0:00:37.733
Christianity is a relationship, not a religion.

0:00:37.733,0:00:43.000
Relationship lies in the heart.

0:00:43.000,0:00:46.500
Without the help of the Holy Spirit,

0:00:46.500,0:00:53.633
your prayers can just impress man, not reach God.

0:00:53.633,0:00:56.966
Without the help of the Holy Spirit,

0:00:56.966,0:01:02.800
you will read the Bible just to be informed, not to be transformed.

0:01:02.800,0:01:06.766
You may read the Bible. The Bible will not read you.

0:01:06.766,0:01:14.400
Without the help of the Holy Spirit, our fasting is just a hunger strike.

0:01:14.400,0:01:22.333
You must be careful to not fall into a religious mindset.
