more quality time with Jesus Christ

We rejoice with you in this beautiful desire to spend more and more quality time with our Lord Jesus Christ, for this is the very heart of what God calls us to. It delights the Father when His children long to draw near to Him, and we join you in praying for a deeper and more intimate fellowship with Him.
We are reminded of the promise in James 4:8, Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you. And in Psalm 27:4, One thing I have asked of Yahweh, that I will seek after: that I may dwell in Yahweh's house all the days of my life, to see Yahweh's beauty, and to inquire in his temple. Your hunger for Him is evidence that He is already drawing you, and we pray He will increase that hunger day by day.
We pray together now in the name of Jesus Christ. Heavenly Father, we thank You for this precious longing You have placed in this heart to know You more. We ask that You help our dear brother or sister to seek You first above all else, as You have taught us in Matthew 6:33, But seek first God's Kingdom and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well. Give the discipline and grace to set apart quiet, undistracted time each day to be still before You, to hear Your voice through Your Word, and to speak with You in prayer. As it says in Psalm 46:10, Be still, and know that I am God, help us to quiet our hearts and minds from the noise of this world. Teach us to remain in Christ as the branch remains in the vine, for apart from Him we can do nothing, as Jesus said in John 15:4, Remain in me, and I in you. As the branch can't bear fruit by itself unless it remains in the vine, so neither can you, unless you remain in me. Pour out a fresh anointing of Your Holy Spirit to make that time rich, alive, and transforming, and let it bear much fruit for Your glory. We ask that You will reveal Yourself more clearly as we seek You with our whole heart, according to Your promise in Jeremiah 29:13, You will seek me and find me, when you search for me with all your heart. We ask all this in the mighty and precious name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
We encourage you to continue to guard this time faithfully, to come to Him early and often with an open Bible and a praying heart, even for just a few minutes at first, and to let Him speak through His Word. He is faithful to meet you there and to fill you with His peace and presence.

We are so encouraged to read your heart here. Wanting more quality time with Jesus is itself a beautiful sign of His work in you.
We have found that time with Him grows more like training than trying. It is not about one big effort to get it right, but small, steady moments that add up over a lifetime. Even a few quiet minutes offered regularly can shape us more than an occasional long stretch we cannot sustain. Seeing yourself as a work in progress takes the pressure off and helps keep the motivation tender toward Him rather than driven by guilt.
One simple way to lean into this is to protect one small window that is already yours. Maybe it is ten minutes in the morning with your Bible open and a short prayer, or an evening walk without your phone where you talk with Him. Keep it simple and consistent for a week or two, and let it grow naturally as He leads.
We are praying for you.
Father, thank You for the hunger You have placed in our friend for more of You. Draw them close as they seek You, give them joy in Your presence and wisdom to guard that time. Help them to know Your nearness each day. In Jesus' name, amen.

Your longing to spend more quality time with the Lord Jesus Christ is itself a token of His grace at work within you, for worldly men live at a distance from Him and have no communion with Him, but the true believer recognizes God everywhere and desires to be with Him always.
This is a most needful and blessed desire, and I rejoice to join my prayers with yours. Fellowship with God was one of the richest privileges of unfallen man, and through our Lord Jesus Christ it is restored to us, so that John could say, Truly our fellowship is with the Father, and with His Son Jesus Christ. That fellowship is not a mere form, but a real contact with Jesus, not mechanical religion, but a mysterious touching of His blessed person by simple faith, from which life and love flow into the soul.
Hear how graciously the Master invites you, Come and break your fast. He spreads before you the old food with which He always feeds His people, bread with a relish that is pleasant and easy to digest, and He does not like to see His servants hungry and faint. You need stamina if you are to do hard and long work for Him, and there is no keeping up that stamina without heavenly food. To be with God in common things, on Monday as well as on the Sabbath, to be a man of God alone with God, declaring your ways unto Him and hearing Him answer, Teach me Thy statutes, this is the sacred art which makes the heart strong and joyous.
Therefore let us pray together. May the Heavenly Father, in the name of Jesus Christ His Son, draw you into closer communion with Himself. May He help you to come to Him without question or hesitancy, since God with us means grace and mercy and restored holiness. May He teach you to set apart time for private prayer and the Word, not as empty duty but as a feast with Jesus, and to believe and doubt not as you partake. May He give you simple faith to wrestle and prevail, and to know that God with us is God for us, and if God be for us none can be against us. May your whole life be spent abiding with your God, whether you roam or rest or sleep or wake, and may you find your happiness in Him until you shall see His face in glory.
We ask this in the precious name of Jesus Christ our Lord, who is our Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous, through whose blood we have bold access. Amen.
