How can believers overcome spiritual dryness?

Answered in 1 source

Believers can overcome spiritual dryness by consistently looking to Christ and seeking fellowship with Him.

Spiritual dryness is a common experience among believers, and the solution lies in actively pursuing a relationship with Christ. The text emphasizes that assurance and communion with Christ are separate experiences; while our assurance in His work remains constant, our feelings can fluctuate. In times of spiritual need, believers should look away from themselves and their experiences and instead fix their gaze on Christ. This pursuit involves prayer, reading Scripture, and engaging with fellow believers in worship. Drawing near to Christ, who feeds among the lilies (His people), invigorates the soul and restores fellowship. As communicated in Matthew 18:20, where two or three are gathered in His name, believers can find encouragement and renewal in community.
