Joyce Meyer: Starting your Day Right: Get Alone with God
Feb 25, '08
But when you pray, go into your [most] private
room, and closing the door, pray to your Father, Who
is in secret; and your Father, Who sees in secret,
will reward you in the open.
Matthew 6:6
Jesus rose early to be alone with God,
but Peter pursued Him to let Him know
that everyone was looking for Him (see Mark 1:35-
36). When you get alone to pray, it may seem that
everybody tries to hunt you down, But Jesus sought
time alone with God so He could focus in His
purpose.
We see the scenario of Jesus praying alone and
then meeting the needs of others again and again.
Jesus went throughout Galilee preaching and driving
out demons. When a leper completely left him (see
Mark 1:#(-42). If Jesus needed to be alone with the
Father before He ministered to others, so do we.
