BIBLICAL EXAMPLES OF TIME ALONE WITH GOD
Mark 1:35
“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.”
Psalm 5:3
“In the morning, O LORD, you hear my voice; in the morning I lay my requests before you and wait in expectation.”
Psalm 1:2-3
“But his delight is in the law of the LORD, and on his law he meditates day and night. He is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither. Whatever he does prospers.”
2 Timothy 3:15
“And how from infancy you have known the holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus.”
Psalm 42: 1-2
“As the deer pants for streams of water, so my soul pants for you, O God. My soul thirst for God, for the living God. When can I go and meet with God?”
· Time alone with God is time getting to know God through reading His Word and prayer
· Time alone with God feeds our souls – there is more to us than just our physical bodies!
v Why do you think Jesus spent time alone with God early in the morning? What can we learn from this?
v It is not enough for us to master Christian beliefs and doctrine (knowing all the right answers) but we must be mastered by the Lord in our everyday lives.
v Business in your day (Martin Luther)
