Very early in the morning, while it was still dark, Jesus got up, left the house and went off to a solitary place, where he prayed. Mark 1:35
Jesus got up very, early scripture says, and didn’t have a cell phone, flashlight, or a cup of coffee. He simply went to pray.
In the start of the new year did you vow to start praying more or get up earlier for quiet time? Going to a quiet place like a safe park, bench on a trail, somewhere not to be distracted is important for communing with God. No distractions.
Talking to God is key to your daily spiritual life. Everything else can try to get your attention but you need prayer and God’s word to stay strong against the lies and trickery of Satan. What do you say? Is this important enough to put it on your daily calendar.
PRAYER:Lord I love you and sometimes I don’t even bother talking to you and sharing my heart and prayers. Break any strongholds like procrastination or apathy that keep me from doing this. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
Note: many churches this time of year have 21 days of prayer and to participate go to www.churchofthehighlands.com/21days
