Yes it can be omitted because there are two different meaning...believe relates to firm so believe in relates to more firmly...believe in God here mean I firmly believe God does exist n his words but only believe means I just accept..

Be strong in basic grammar. Know more vocabulary. Try to find the usage of words. Read more. Wherever you get a chance to speak English, speak. You can prepare a speech on the subject, you choose any, and try to speak it out.

Try to learn the phonetic scripts and how to use them. Dictionaries provide the pronunciation (in phonetic script). Try to pronounce the words many times alone. Listen to BBC and news reading. See how the words are pronounced. Spend some time to listen to the news.
