Set times for prayer.



Days go by fast! I am sure that is not breaking news to you. Most of us have some what of a schedule for a day. Wake up, breakfast, shower, brush teeth, make lunch, go to work, ect. We have a set time for various things through out a day. If prayer is important to us then we need to have times each day set aside for communicating with God! Look what David did:

Psalm 55:17 Evening and morning and at noon I will pray, and cry aloud, And He shall hear my voice.

Daniel also had a routine of prayer set in his schedule:

Daniel 6:10 Now when Daniel knew that the writing was signed, he went home. And in his upper room, with his windows open toward Jerusalem, he knelt down on his knees three times that day, and prayed and gave thanks before his God, as was his custom since early days.

We also find Jesus getting up early for a set time of prayer:

Mark 1:35 Now in the morning, having risen a long while before daylight, He went out and departed to a solitary place; and there He prayed.

and many other times too:

Luke 5:16 So He Himself often withdrew into the wilderness and prayed.

Mark 6:46 And when He had sent them away, He departed to the mountain to pray.

Anything important to us we make time for, Is God important to you? God should be our #1 priority and if He is not we have an idol of some sort taking His place that we need to get rid of fast! 

So look at your day, and schedule time with God, He deserves it and you won’t regret one second of time spent with God in prayer!
