April 30, 2024 – How Spiritually Healthy Are You?
Psalm 119:97
Sermon: 1806 How to Have a Meaningful Quiet Time
Pray Over This
“Oh, how I love Your law! It is my meditation all the day.”
Psalm 119:97
Ponder This
My wife gives me brewer's yeast every morning for the vitamins in it. And then on top of that, bee pollen. Then a fist full of vitamins and then two-percent milk. At first, these habits were foreign, and I did not have a taste for them, but over time my appetite has changed and I've learned to like it.
If you get on a regimen of eating right, it’ll change you. And if you get on a regimen of getting into the Word of God and feeding your soul, the change may not be immediate and dramatic, but it will change you for eternity. We need to have quality quiet time.
This is how I prepare my heart for the presence of God. First, take a deep breath. Focus your thoughts on the Lord, then look up and lift your hands to Him. When you lift your hands in praise say, “Lord, I praise You and only You.” Then, lift your hands again and say, “Lord, I surrender! I am under Your control.” And then lift your hands a third time and say, “Lord, I receive,” as you’re expecting to receive something. Over time, I hope this will tune your heart to think about the presence of God.
- Do you spend dedicated time in the Word regularly? Why or why not?
- How can you include time with the Lord as a part of your everyday life?
Practice This
If you don’t already have this, add time with the Lord in the Word as a part of your rhythm this week.
