The Power of Personal Time with Jesus

At Lifegate Church, we believe that personal time with Jesus is essential for spiritual growth and relationship with God. Just as Jesus often withdrew to quiet places to pray, we too are invited to meet with our Heavenly Father in a personal and powerful way.

Why Personal Time with Jesus is Crucial:
In Mark 1:35, we see Jesus making it a priority to spend time alone with God. David echoes this in Psalm 84:10, expressing the unmatched joy of being in God's presence. Today, we have the incredible privilege of connecting with God anytime and anywhere, thanks to the indwelling of the Holy Spirit.

A Simple Guide to Quiet Time:

• Stop and Be Still: Begin by calming your mind and asking God to speak to you during this time.

• Thank and Praise God: Acknowledge who God is and express gratitude for what He has done in your life.

• Commit Your Day to God: Surrender your plans and seek His guidance for the day.

• Pray for Your Needs and Others: Bring your requests to God and intercede for others in your life.

• Read the Bible: Engage with God’s Word, allowing it to speak to your heart.

• Wait on God: Take time to listen for God’s voice and reflect on what He’s saying.

Starting with just 10 minutes a day can transform your spiritual journey. As you continue to spend personal time with Jesus, you’ll find your relationship with Him deepening and your life aligning more closely with His will.
