SPEND TIME ALONE WITH THE FATHER

Our Lord Jesus Christ spent 40days fasting and praying before He started His ministry. During those 40 days, Jesus received strength to be able to resist the devil at the end of that exercise. Jesus went up to the mountain to pray before He went to Jerusalem where He met with His Father to discuss His death (Luke 9:28-36). If Jesus the Son of God needed time to be alone with the Father in prayer to be strengthened and receive fresh direction, how much more do we need it?

We often forfeit great blessings because we are too busy. Decide to set aside time each day for prayer, meditation and bible reading. We must come to Jesus with all sincerity in our heart.

The eagle has tremendous eyesight to be able to see things clearly at a great distance. The vision of people who don’t spend time waiting on God in prayer become blurred, confusion and distortion set in. But when you wait on the Lord, like the eagle, you will see things even at a distance and discern them. In order words, God will sharpen your spiritual perception.

Prayer                    

I receive a heart to seek the Lord above all else in Jesus name. Amen.
