How to do a Quiet Time with God in Scripture (E9/S2)
As regular listeners, you have heard us share in each episode our personal reflection on Scripture from our own "Quiet Time" with God. In this episode we talk more about the "HOW" of doing a Quiet Time. Listen and be encouraged as we share the key elements - the ABC's of a Quiet Time method from Every Man a Warrior, and some variations we each have to this base method.
Scripture has instruction for life. Scripture is God's voice. The more we read and reflect on Scripture, the better and clearer we can hear God. This is a critical part of living an abundant life of close fellowship with God.
A - Ask Questions
B - Best Verse
C - Communicate (pray)
Many men do not have a regular time with God:
1) They have not been trained.
2) Satan does not want you to spend time in the Word of God.
3) We have not had anyone to hold us accountable.
Three reasons to have a Quiet Time:
1) God wants to meet with you.
2) You need it.
3) The world around you needs to hear about God.
"Be watchful, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong. Do everything in love.."
1 Corinthians 16:13-14 ESV
