2019 Thanksgiving 5

Girls, I would like to share a testimony with you that would encourage you in your Bible reading and quiet time with God. I had been often discouraged in my daily quiet times. I would do it as a duty. It was a namesake Bible reading and prayer. I was listening to some children of God speak about how refreshing their time with God was, I was also having the desire to experience this. As I was thinking about it, God showed me how my time on my phone is hindering me from having a real quiet time with God. I decided that I would take my phone into my hands only after I had spent my time with God. For the first few days, it was just like forcing myself to do something. But then I began to see transformation in my prayer life. God started speaking to me from his word most of the days, even from dry passages. Even my prayer life began to blossom. I started to experience the presence of God with me through out the day. Bible reading and prayer became a happy time. I want to encourage you today- whatever your struggle is, identify it and ask God to help you. Take one tiny step to discipline yourself. When we take one step towards God, he honours it and comes running towards us. God has no partiality. What he is doing for me, he will definitely do for you too.
