MARK 6:46 AND WHEN HE HAD SENT THEM AWAY, HE DEPARTED INTO A MOUNTAIN TO PRAY.
AFTER TIMES OF GREAT MINISTRY, JESUS WOULD SEND THE PEOPLE AWAY AND SPEND TIME WITH THE FATHER IN PRAYER AND FELLOWSHIP.
THIS IS NECESSARY FOR ANY CHRISTIAN.
JESUS DID WHAT HE SAW HIS FATHER DO, HE WAS ABOUT HIS FATHERS BUSINESS.
JESUS LOVED THOSE PRIVATE TIMES WITH HIS FATHER.
SOLITUDE, SEEKING THE FACE OF THE FATHER, WORSHIPPING HIM.
THIS IS NUMBER ONE PRIORITY FOR EVERY CHRISTAIN. WE MUST PULL OURSELVES AWAY FROM MINISTRY, WORK, BUSINESS, PLEASURE AND EVEN FAMILY, TO HAVE QUITENESS WITH THE LORD.
WE MUST SETTLE OUR MINDS DOWN AND LET GOD REGAIN OUR THOUGHTS.
THE BURDENS AND CARES OF THIS LIFE CAN ME REMOVED IN HIS PRESENCE.
OUR WEAKNESS IS TOUCHED BY HIS STRENGTH.
HIS PRESENCE RENEWS OUR PASSION FOR HIM. WE CANNOT HELP OTHERS WITHOUT HIS ANOINTING. WE CANNOT HAVE HIS ANIONTING WITHOUT SPENDING TIME WITH HIM IN PRIVATE.
WE CAN TEACH WHAT WE KNOW, BUT WE CAN ONLY IMPART WHAT WE POSSESS.
WE CAN’T GIVE WHAT WE DON’T HAVE, AND WE CAN ONLY GET FROM HIM, WHAT PEOPLE NEED.
A WELL IS PERSONAL, BUT A RIVER BLESSES MASSES.
A RIVER FLOWS FROM SOLITUDE IN HIS PRESENCE.
