Garrett Sims, High School Student Ministry Director, offers the following teaching lesson:
32 When evening came, after the sun had set, they began bringing to Him all who were ill and those who were demon-possessed. 33 And the whole city had gathered at the door. 34 And He healed many who were ill with various diseases, and cast out many demons; and He was not permitting the demons to speak, because they knew who He was. 35 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. 36 Simon and his companions searched for Him; 37 they found Him, and said to Him, “Everyone is looking for You.”
Mark 1:32-37 (NASB1995)
The Big Idea:
Quiet time with God should be a priority for every single believer, because it’s the most important relationship you will ever have.
Make Time for Quiet Time.
There are 4 quick things I want you to see from this passage this morning:
Quiet Time is an INTENTIONAL Decision
Quiet Time Means Leaving Distractions Behind
Quiet Time Takes Place in Seclusion
Quiet Time is WORSHIP
Quiet time with God is an important part of our daily lives. God uses this time with Him in so many various ways.
Prepare you for the noise
Speak to you & Provide Clarity
Quiet Time is where God Reveals Himself
HOW do we implement this into our own lives?
Find Everyday Moments Amidst the Noise that you Can Manipulate to be Quiet Time
Intentionally PLAN your DAILY quiet time
When you start with the most important things, and build your life around that, everything else falls into place
