2 Peter 1:3

For His divine power has bestowed on us (absolutely) everything necessary for (a dynamic spiritual) life and godliness, through true and personal knowledge of Him who called us by His own glory and excellence.  

Jesus came to re-establish the connection to God that Adam lost. With our salvation, the divine power opens up our spirit to hear from God. We have a link to God and gain personal knowledge of Him through the word. Our job is to keep the link open and flow through the word and prayer.
