CFI WEEKLY DEVOTION -Meditation

*CFI~WEEKLY DEVOTION®*🇺🇬
15th July 2018   By Apostle George Kuch.

 *MEDITATION_ QUITE TIME.*

*Oh how love I Thy law! it is my meditation all the day.” Psalm 119:97*

Christianity is not a legal relationship, it is a love relationship. Ten thousand “don'ts” will never make you one iota more like the Lord Jesus Christ. It is Jesus Himself Who makes you like Him. But you need to spend time with Him.

A quiet time is fellowship with a holy God. You have to be physically alert, a time when the cobwebs are out of your mind and you can think clearly. focused, and know He's there.

 Emotion doesn't really have all that much to do with it. Some people don't have a quiet time because they feel uncomfortable looking God in the face with sin active in their lives. Well; this will help you mend your ways as you relate and understand God as a friend.

Your state of mind matters in this communion, I will recommend Early in the morning before you start off your day.
  ⚔ “… in the morning will I direct my prayer unto Thee, and will look up." Psalm 5:3.

⚔ And in the morning, rising up a great while before day, he went out, and departed into a solitary place, and there prayed. Mark 1:35 KJV.

You don't take the trip and then read the map, do you? Spend time alone with God to begin your day.
Find a place where you can focus. Jesus said enter into your closet and pray (see Matthew 6:6). That simply means find a place of isolation where you can shut the door on the world and open the windows to heaven. Jesus sought out places where He could be alone, and so should you.

Read the Bible for quality and not quantity. It's good to have a goal to read the Bible through in a year, or a similar goal; but that's not the purpose of your quiet time. Also, devotional books are wonderful. But again, this is not the place for them. This is the time when you simply read the Bible with an open mind. As you focus on the Word of God and meditate, let it permeate you,record what God has given you. Write down what God says to you,
