Every morning He wakes me. He teaches me to listen like a student. The Lord God helps me to learn....
ISAIAH 50:4-5 NCV
"Every new day is a gift from God, and if you are wise, you will spend a few quiet moments each morning thanking the Giver" p70
"When you begin each new day with your head bowed and your heart lifted, you are reminded of God's love..... Then you can align your priorities for the coming day with the teachings and commandments that God has placed upon your heart" p70
"...if you've acquired the habit of trying to "squeeze" God into the corners of your life, it's time to reshuffle the items on your to-do list by placing God first." p70
"How motivating it has been for me to view my early morning devotions as time of retreat alone with Jesus, who desires that I "come with Him by myself to a quiet place" in order to pray, read His Word, listen for His voice, and be renews in my spirit." - ANNE GRAHAM LOTZ p71
"I suggest you discipline yourself to spend time daily in a systematic reading of God's Word, Make this "quiet time" a priority that nobody can change" - WARREN WIERSBE p71
TODAY'S PRAYER
Lord, help me to hear Your direction for my life in the quiet moments when I study Your Holy Word. And as I go about my daily activities, let everything that I say and do be pleasing to You. Amen
