Spending time with the Lord in sweet fellowship is priceless.

Does life seems overwhelming, have you lost your direction and joy, or do you just want to be wrapped in the blessings of the Lord? Make time to sit, talk to the Lord, and listen to his words of wisdom. Hosea 10:12 says “For it is time to seek the Lord, till he come and rain righteousness upon you”. KJV

I love being renewed and strengthened through time with the Lord. For me, finding a cozy place with a warm drink helps me block out the distractions of the world. “I long for Your precepts; Revive me in Your righteousness”. – Psalm 119:40 NKJV

This time of renewal should not be a replacement to your daily devotions. It is a special time to call out to the Lord and seek his guidance for your life. Don’t miss out on this opportunity to receive a special blessing from the Lord.

To experience this sweet fellowship with the Lord:

Plan

Set aside a time that you will be free from distractions. Many times while Jesus was on earth he would find a quiet place. A place he could get away from the many distractions and talk to his Heavenly Father.

Open your heart

Be attentive, willing to listen and have an obedient heart. “The Lord is good to those who wait for Him, To the soul who seeks him.” – Lamentations 3:25 NKJV

Pray

Thank God for the blessings he has given you.

Ask God for wisdom and guidance. Seek out the plans that he has for your life. In Jeremiah 29:12 it reminds us that God listens to us,  “Then you will call upon Me and go pray to Me, and I will listen to you”. NKJV

Tell the Lord all that is on your heart.

Read

Dig into God’s word. “For it is time to seek the Lord, till he come and rain righteousness upon you.” – Hosea 10:12 Listen to his voice of wisdom that is found in the Bible. Let the Bible encourage, comfort, and inspire you to do God’s will.

Block out the hustle and bustle of the world. Enjoy one on one time with the Lord. It will refresh your soul and nourish your mind. Make time to enjoy sweet fellowship with the Lord.
