The Most Important Meeting of Your Day

Mark 1:35;  Matthew 4:1-4   Do you like going to meetings?  How many of you have jobs that require them?   - As a follower of Jesus the most important meeting of your day is ____________________.   - Jesus demonstrates the importance of meeting with God.  Mark 1:35            "And in the early morning, while it was still dark, Jesus got up, left the house, and went away to a secluded place, and was praying there."             - A quiet time is a set-aside part of your day where you meet with God.             - Your quiet time (meeting) with God sets the tone for the day.   - Jesus reveals why it is essential to meet with God.  Matthew 4:1-4. (Deut. 8:3)         - It is essential for you to eat bread (food) to live.  (Physically)       - It is essential for you to read God's Word to live.  (Spiritually)     - A daily quiet time with God involves:            - Praying with God.  Talking to Him and listening to Him.          - Reading God's Word.            - Writing down what He reveals to you.          - Obeying what He tells you to do for the day.          - Sharing it with others throughout the day.     We are on Day 5 of 2025 with 360 more days ahead.                 I want to challenge you to make 2025 the year where you meet with God daily.                 If you accept this challenge, your life will never be the same.
