6 Steps To Accountability:
Believers cannot live the Christian life without the power of the Holy Spirit. But they also cannot live without the influence and support of other believers. In the battle against the flesh, accountability is vital. Here are six steps for establishing an accountability relationship:
1. Begin with prayer, asking God to lead you to the right partner.
2.Emphasize things you share in common. This helps break the ice and creates a context of comfort.
3. Focus on the relationship first. Build the friendship and trust.
4. Commit to transparency and confidentiality. Without these characteristics, accountability relationships will founder.
5. Refuse to harbor offenses. Correction can be painful, but it is necessary. Remember the motivation for the words.
6. Love beyond limits. Make sure this is the driving force of the relationship.
