Bible Reading: Joshua 1:8

Memory Verse: But his delight is in the law of the LORD, And in His law he meditates day and night. Psalm 1:2 (NKJV)

In her book, “Muddling Through Again”, Lee wrote, the importance of Quiet time include:

1) Strengthen Your Relationship with God: Our relationship with God is the most important thing in our lives. Just as we need to nurture our relationships with family and friends, we need to nurture our relationship with God. Quiet time helps us do this. During these moments of prayer and spiritual contemplation, we can slow down and connect with God on a deeper level. We can reflect on God’s Word, ask for guidance in our lives, and discover His will for our lives. Reading the Bible also helps us learn more about God and what God has done for us. As you can see, quiet time with God helps us develop a closer relationship with God.

2) Stay Focused on What Matters Most: In a world that is constantly pulling our attention in different directions, quiet time with God helps us stay focused on what’s truly important. It gives us a chance to step away from the distractions of everyday life and to refocus our attention on God. When we make time for God, we are reminded of His love for us and of God’s sovereignty over all things. As we seek God through prayer and study, we are better able to align our lives with God’s will and to find true peace and purpose.

3) Grow Your Faith: Spending time with God creates the best feedback loop! The more we pray and read the Bible, the stronger our faith grows. The stronger our faith grows, the more we want to spend quiet time with God! This has absolutely been true for me. I started with just a few minutes each day, and now I’m doing Bible studies, writing scripture, and journaling prayers. I’ve even added Christian memoirs to my leisure reading! Part of this faith-building process is realizing just how much we need God. We need His strength to overcome temptation, His wisdom to make good decisions, and His love to help us through difficult times. When we take the time to commune with God on a daily basis, we are setting ourselves up for success in every area of our lives.

Quote:  During your Quiet time, wisdom is released to make good decisions, strength is released to overcome temptation, and the love of God envelopes to see us through difficult times.

Prophetic Decree: May heaven visit your earth as you have your daily Quiet time, in Jesus name. 

Prayer Focus 

1. I receive grace to develop a daily habit of having my quiet time.

2. I scatter every satanic obstruction on my way daily quiet time, in Jesus name. 

3. I receive great grace to pull away for my daily routine in order to connect on a deeper level with my Creator.

4. As I have my Quiet time, my faith shall be strengthened, in Jesus name. 

5. As I have my Quiet time, my faith shall grow, in Jesus name. 

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:  Daniel 1-3

Hymn:  DRAW ME NEARER, NEARER TO YOU 

1. I am Thine, O Lord, I have heard Thy voice,

And it told Thy love to me;

But I long to rise in the arms of faith,

And be closer drawn to Thee.

Verse

Draw me nearer, nearer, blessed Lord,

To the cross where Thou hast died;

Draw me nearer, nearer, nearer, blessed Lord,

To Thy precious, bleeding side.

2. Consecrate me now to Thy service, Lord,

 By the pow’r of grace divine;

Let my soul look up with a steadfast hope,

 And my will be lost in Thine.

3. O the pure delight of a single hour

That before Thy throne I spend,

When I kneel in prayer, and with Thee, my God,

I commune as friend with friend!

4. There are depths of love that I yet may know

Ere Thee face to face I see;

There are heights of joy that I yet may reach

Ere I rest in peace with Thee.
