HOW TO KEEP "DRAWING NEAR TO GOD"

 If you are a baptized Christian, you have to a great extent already drawn close to Jehovah. You have learned many truths about Jehovah God and and Christ Jesus, repented of your past sins, exercised strong faith in God, and endeavored to act in harmony with his will.  To draw closer to God, however, we must continue doing these things. - Colossians 2:6. 

What will help us to keep drawing closer to Jehovah? (1) We must continue reading and studying the Bible. As we do so, our goal should be more than merely learning basic facts about God. Rather, we should try to perceive what will is for us to be governed by the principles that he has set out in his Word. (Ephesians 5:15-17) (2) We must strengthen our faith by meditating on the abundant evidence of his love for us. (3) We must continue to hate the things that offend Jehovah and to avoid friendship with people who practice such things. - PSALM 1:1; 101:3.
