The Bible implies that Adam and Eve habitually walked in the cool of the day with YHVH in the Garden of Eden. Doesn’t that sound rather “cool” (pun and double entendre intended) (Gen 3:8)? What disciple of Yeshua and lover of Elohim wouldn’t cherish such an ongoing experience with their Creator? Isn’t this why believers long for heaven and the presence of YHVH Elohim? Our Father in heaven desires this as well. After all, isn’t this the reason he sent his Son to this earth? And isn’t this why Yeshua instructed his disciples to abide continually in him like a branch attached to a tree (John 15:1ff)? So how do we do this? As we are about to see, it is a whole lot more than going to church and checking our “God-box” once or twice a week and saying grace at meals!

It is time to extricate YHVH Elohim from our religious boxes to which we have confined him and to set him free. These boxes are the times and places where we go and do our “God-thing.” This can be church or other religious services, grace at meals, and even our personal devotional times. After having thrown a bit of religious ritualism at Elohim, too often we toss our hair back cavalierly, and then with little or no thought, adroitly and casually slip him onto the back burner of our thoughts and actions, and then go about our lives as if were not much more than an after thought. In this way, we keep Elohim confined to a few small boxes to which we have attached label entitled “my religious experience.” It ends up that too often we live our lives how we want to without giving Elohim much thought. In this way, we keep him conveniently trapped in closet prisons of our own contrivances, when, in reality, he wants and demands to be part of every aspect of our lives. Too many of us have no problem with Elohim being our Savior—but being the Lord and Master over every area of our lives all the time? Well, that’s another thing! Yeshua the Messiah summed this religious mindset up this way:

Hypocrites! Well did Isaiah prophesy about you, saying: “These people draw near to me with their mouth, and honor me with their lips, but their heart is far from me.” (Matt 5:17)

To experience the blessings and riches of Elohim’s river of life in our lives including along with his divine favor and presence, each of us would be wise to learn how to stay immersed in the spiritual river that flows from his throne continually. Perhaps the following tips will help you to do that.

Here are 22 practical ways of bringing YHVH into every aspect of your daily life continually:

1. In all things, be thankful to YHVH (1 Thess 5:18). Throughout the day, be aware of all your blessings and thank YHVH for them. Even thank him for the trials.
2. Pray in the Spirit (in your heavenly prayer language (1 Cor 14:2, 15, 18).
3. Meditate on a Bible verse (Pss 1:2; 119:78, 148).
4. Prayerfully intercede for people during the course of the day as they come to your mind.
5. Ask YHVH questions and then wait for him to bring you the answer. He may immediately download the answer into your mind, or at a latter time, or it may come through someone else or through circumstances. Wait for the answer, and when it comes, thank him for it.
6. Pray for divine appointments each day and then wait for them to come, and then give YHVH thanks when they come. A divine appointment is a “chance” meeting of someone with whom you can share the word of Elohim or in some way be a spiritual light to them by pointing them to Elohim.
7. Worship and praise YHVH throughout the day by singing songs to him.
8. Pray before and after meals, or even after taking a drink of water. Before the meal, praise and worship YHVH. After the meal, thank him for the meal you’ve just had (Deut 8:10 cp. Matt 14:19; 15:36; 26:26; John 6:11; Acts 27:35).
9. View yourself as an ambassador for the kingdom of Elohim in everything you do and say that involves others. Endeavor to be salt and light to those around you for the glory of Elohim (Matt 5:13–16; Eph 5:8; 1 Thess 5:5).
10. Practice the 16 attributes of YHVH’s love as found in 1 Corinthians 13—especially when you find yourself in difficult situations where being loving is hard to do.
11. Live each moment and day as if it were your last.
12. Always try leaving things better than you found them. This includes situations, time, places and people’s lives.
13. Endeavor to plant spiritual seeds wherever you go. Perhaps the spiritual seeds  that you plant in someone else’s may take root, sprout and bear fruit for the kingdom of Elohim later.
14. When bad things happen to you, count your blessings, express joy, be thankful, bless your enemies, pray for those who despitefully use you, bless and don’t curse (Matt 5:44).
15. Always practice the golden rule of doing treating others how you want to be treated (Matt 7:12).
16. Practice being a peacemaker especially in difficult situations when you want to defend yourself, or fight back, even when you have been wronged (Matt 5:9; Rom 12:18).
17. Do a selfless or altruistic deed for someone each day. It is of greater spiritual value if it cost you something and no one else knows you did it (Matt 6:3).
18. Do everything including the most minimal and menial task for YHVH’s glory and out of love for him. Work as if you were working for YHVH, not for men (Eccl 9:10; Col 3:23).
19. Read your Bible and pray after you get up in the morning and as you’re going to sleep each night even if it is only for a few minutes. This way, you are starting and ending the day with YHVH.
20. Put the audio Bible on your iPod, smart phone or similar electronic device and listen to it during your day.
21. Wear biblical tzitzits or fringes on the four corners of your garments as the Torah commands to help remind you of your relationship with YHVH and to obey his commands (Num 15:37–41; Deut 22:12).
22. Fast periodically even if it is only for a meal or two. Among the many spiritual benefits of fasting, when you feel the hunger pangs, it will remind you to think about YHVH Elohim and the need to grow closer to him as to put him ahead of your carnal appetites.
23. Always ask yourself this before you are about to do, say or think anything: What would Yeshua do? If it is not something he would so, say or think, then don’t do it.
