Barriers to Intimacy Why do people not experience closeness with the Father? The greatest barrier is pride. Some believe they have no need to kneel before the Lord in prayer. They put their trust in themselves and pursue relationships, accomplishments, or possessions instead of a relationship with the Father.A related problem is rebellion.When we deliberately disobey the Lord, we can not have intimacy with Him. If God is not answering your prayers, ask yourself if you are tolerating sin in your life. Finally, some people never find intimacy with God because they are always in a hurry. Take time to read the Bible and meditate on it.Ask the Lord, What are you saying to me through this passage? How does it apply to my life? As you seek and listen to Him in prayer, you will grow in your ability to hear God and experience new excitement and joy in your spiritual life.
