"In repentance and
rest is your salvation,
in quietness and trust is your strength,
but you would
have none of it."
Isaiah 30:15b
How
much time do you really spend quietly with God? Many people are so busy
they don't have time to work God into their schedules. This age is
addicted to activity.
The
problem is, much of what confronts us in life on a daily basis involves
spiritual battles against the enemy, Satan. We let him gain too many
footholds in our lives by not making room for God.
The
best way to gain victory and succeed in life is by spending quiet time with God
every day. Reading God's Word and staying in communication with Him
through prayer is the best way to make it through the day's obstacles and
challenges.
Spending
quiet time with God will reveal to you that you don't have to be afraid of
anything the day can throw at you. Trust God with every area of your life
and know He is with you through everything. Resting with God is the way
to gain your strength.
Next
time you feel defeated, burned out, frustrated, and exhausted -- take a minute
to reflect on your schedule to see if you are spending enough quiet time with
God.
