 I believe Alex is talking about things that a christian should regularly do
As christian, there are things we do daily to grow both our inner and outer man in Us.

Habits of christian life.(by Alex Taremwa)

(It should be noted that some of Alex's teachings have been expounded to give a bigger view of his essay. Be blessed.)
1.Reading the bible
Without a bible you will be like a brand new AK47 gun with no bullet in it.
With this i am inspired by the switch whenever i am going to read my bible.
"This is my bible, i am what it says i am,
I have what it says i have, i can do what it says i can do."

2.Praying
It helps a christian to regularly communicate with God
Just imagine a marriage where partners take a month without talking to each other.
Anyone will clearly say i smell a rat within this home

3.Connecting e.g cell groups
4.Giving

The scripture says:

Instruct those who are rich in this present world not to be conceited or to fix their hope on the uncertainty of riches, but on God who richly supplies us with all things to enjoy. Instruct them to do good, to be rich in good works, to be generous and ready to share, storing up for themselves the treasure of a good foundation for the future, so that they may take hold of that which is life indeed. (1 Timothy 6:17-19)

Biblical Giving Guarantees God’s Supply for Our Needs

Nevertheless, you have done well to share with me in my affliction. And you yourselves also know, Philippians, that at the first preaching of the gospel, after I departed from Macedonia, no church shared with me in the matter of giving and receiving but you alone; FOR EVEN IN THESSALONICA YOU SENT A GIFT MORE THAN ONCE FOR MY NEEDS. Not that I seek the gift itself, but I seek for the profit which increases to your account. But I have received everything in full, and have an abundance; I am amply supplied, having received from Epaphroditus what you have sent, a fragrant aroma, an acceptable sacrifice, well pleasing to God. AND MY GOD SHALL SUPPLY ALL YOUR NEEDS according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus. (Philippians 4:19)

But seek first His kingdom, and His righteousness; and all these things shall be added to you. (Matthew 6:33)

Biblical Giving Is the Direct Result of Being Spirit-Filled

And when they had prayed, the place where they had fathered together was shaken, and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and began to speak the word of God with boldness. And the congregation of those who believed were of one heart and soul; and not one of them claimed that anything belonging to him was his own; but all things were common property to them. And with great power the apostles were giving witness to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus, and abundant grace was upon them all. For there was not a needy person among them, for all who were owners of lands or houses would sell them and bring the proceeds of the sales, and lay them at the apostles’ feet; and they would be distributed as any had need. (Acts 4:31-35)

          Biblical Giving Is for All Believers

On the first day of every week let EACH ONE OF YOU put aside and save, as he may prosper, that no collections be made when I come. (1 Corinthians 16:2)

5.Sharing your faith
 As we look at  early Christians, we must be struck by the fact that they were very dedicated to taking the message about Jesus and salvation through Him to others. They shared their faith with friends because they were excited about the benefits Jesus can give. And when opposition arose, even putting some of them in prison and others to death, they did not stop. We need to have a similar commitment. Thankfully, few of us would have to face prison or death to share our faith. We might have to give up a little time or stick our necks out a little to take a stand in front of a friend. Let’s be like the early Christians and show great determination in sharing our faith with others.

All these habits are equally  important in a christian life.
 
My prayer is to see every christian yearn to read a bible everyday,pray everyday, have a cell group, en be able to share his faith with a neighbor.

Hello Friends,It  is Perez again. Continuing with  our yesterday's sharing, Sanctification in summary is God's Will for Us a Progressive and continuous process of being made holy  by God himself.

 

Sanctification is the procedure by which we become holy. It's the process that God has designed to conform us into His image, so that we can experience His Life through us and His presence in us. (1 Thessalonians 4:3; 2 Thessalonians 2:13) In other words, in order to know Him intimately and experience His Life, we must first be sanctified (be made holy)-body, soul and spirit. 
Thus, sanctification is simply the means by which we are set apart, separated or consecrated from anything that is unholy.
Scripture tells us that when we accept Christ into our hearts, we are "positionally" sanctified because of what He has already done for us on the cross and the holiness that He has already imputed to us. (Hebrew 10:10) In other words, it's a fact that we are already separated and consecrated unto Him. However, in order to experience this sanctification in our lives, we must first relinquish ourselves to Him and allow Him to remove or cut away anything in us that quenches His Spirit.
As the Lord sanctifies us, we also have a role we play in this process.

See what Paul tells the Church:

Therefore, my dear friends, as you have always obeyed—not only in my presence, but now much more in my absence—continue to work out your salvation with fear and trembling, for it is God who works in you to will and to act according to his good purpose. (Philippians 2:12-13)

Colossians 3: 5 Put to death, therefore, whatever belongs to your earthly nature: sexual immorality, impurity, lust, evil desires and greed, which is idolatry. And see the role  we play in the process of sanctification  

Hello am Perez and here to share with you God's Word, Share it with the rest of the world
What is Sanctification?
Sanctification is the process by which a Christian is transformed to overcome the
power of sin in his life such that he becomes more Christ-like, bearing the mature fruit of the
Spirit of God.
In simple terms, sanctification is the process of spiritual growth.
 
Read (one at a time)and contemplate on these verses 1Thessalonians 5:23-24, John 17:17 John 15:3 Who sanctifies us? What does HE use to sanctify us? Read 2Cor 7:1 then C0l 3:5-17b
 
Individual questions to answer in your Prayer Group
What is the purpose of our sanctification? (1Pet 1:15)When you study about the fruit of the flesh and the fruit of the Spirit, Do you realize that we are sanctified against the fruit of the flesh such that we can bear more of the fruit of the
Spirit? 
How can you corporate with God in this process of sanctification. (1peter 1:22-2:2). 

 What is the evidence of a person being sanctified or a person who is committed to
cooperating with God in the process of sanctification of his or her life?
 
What are you as an individual doing in corporation with the Lord to sanctify your life?
 
What is the purpose of church service, bible study fellowships, cells, preachers, overnights,
conferences and all church programs? I believe its to support us in our sanctification process. 
Eph 4:11-32 (verse 11-13)

From what you have learnt today what do you as an individual commit to in order to make
sure you grow spiritually to manifest Christ in your personal life? (Everyone shares).
