I want to talk to you about how to touch the heart of God in a way that pleases him in a way that invites his favor we’re going to give you very biblical practical keys but to begin I want you to write this in the comment section three simple words all for Jesus let that be your unashamed public declaration all for Jesus with this comment you in your hearts are recommitting to pleasing the Lord You’re recommitting to connecting with him and you desire I know you do to go deeper with the holy spirit so write that right
