I'd recommend a few things, first is to understand what is important to God.
Jesus told us that the following two commandments fulfill all of the Law (10 commandments given to Moses). The most important thing to God/Jesus is
1. "love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul and mind". So remember that in the back of your mind. People talk about their spiritual relationship with God because that is one of the things that Christ died for us to have. With Jesus as our Savior, we are reconciled back to the Father through His Son. Sin was what separated us from God, He is holy, we are sinners. But Jesus, the Lamb who takes away the sins of the world being our Savior has paid our sin debt in full!!!! We are now reconciled back to God. When we become children of God we are given the Holy Spirit.
2. "love your neighbor as yourself". God wants us to love each other. Sometimes you may be like 'what' or 'I don't want to' but God tells us to do all things for His glory. You glorify Him in your actions, so give Him glory through what you do.
So those two things are mucho importano to the Lord.
3. Read Romans chapters 5-8 Many people never know who they are positionally in Jesus Christ. Romans explains it well, but there is a lot of info packed into those three chapters. Read it multiple times and reflect on it. It will give you much confidence and begin your spiritual walk on a great note to know who you are in Christ.
4. Know that the bible does NOT read as a novel. In some of the epistles you will go back to another book, don't expect not to cross reference. There are great resources for you that will help you along. Read
4 gospels
Acts
Romans, 1 Corinthians, 2 Corinthians ect... to Revelation, but stop and don't read Revelation right now. A very advanced book.
Once you have read most of the New Testament than go back to the Old Testament.
5. One of the most important things to God is that you and Him walk your Christian walk TOGETHER. Do NOT try to do it by yourself. That is what you will find in the bible. God wants you to give your problems to Him, Him carrying your problems, they are light to Him, but heavy for you. Learn to rest in the quiet and peace of the Lord. When we are weary there is always 'rest' to be found in our Lord. Know that Jesus will NEVER leave you or forsake you. He will always forgive you when you ask. And there is no power on heaven or on earth that can remove you from Jesus right hand.
6. Pray. Don't worry about your prayer sounding good or like anyone else's, just talk to Jesus. Tell Him what you need help with. Dear Lord, I have been wondering what the spiritual side of knowing you is all about. I'm not sure how to find it, but please lead me towards it. I want to have a full, personal relationship with you. I know that the Holy Spirit lives inside of me and will pray for me also. I ask the Holy Spirit's guidance. Help me to develop an open heart, open to You, Your Word and to love. I ask this in Jesus name. Amen.
