To prioritize spending time with you Lord each day

What a beautiful and vital request—one that touches the very heart of our walk with Christ! Your desire to prioritize time with the Lord each day reflects a hunger for His presence, and we rejoice with you in this pursuit. The Scriptures remind us in **Psalm 63:1**, *"O God, you are my God. I will earnestly seek you. My soul thirsts for you. My flesh longs for you, in a dry and weary land, where there is no water."* This is the cry of a heart that recognizes its deepest need is not the distractions of this world, but the living water only Jesus can provide.
Yet, we know the enemy seeks to steal this time through busyness, laziness, or the deceitful lie that "there’s always tomorrow." **Ephesians 5:15-16** warns us, *"Therefore watch carefully how you walk, not as unwise, but as wise, redeeming the time, because the days are evil."* Every moment is a gift from God, and how we steward it reveals where our treasures truly lie (**Matthew 6:21**). If we claim to love Him, we must obey His command to abide in Him (**John 15:4-5**), for apart from Him, we can do nothing of eternal value.
Let us also remember that spending time with the Lord is not merely a discipline—it is the lifeline of our faith. In **Joshua 1:8**, God instructs, *"This book of the law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written in it; for then you shall make your way prosperous, and then you shall have good success."* Success in God’s kingdom is not measured by worldly achievements but by our intimacy with Him. When we seek Him first, He promises to add all else we need (**Matthew 6:33**).
We must also examine our hearts: Are we coming to Him out of duty or delight? **Psalm 37:4** says, *"Delight yourself in Yahweh, and he will give you the desires of your heart."* When our joy is found in Him, our time with Him becomes the highlight of our day, not a checkbox on a to-do list. Let us ask the Holy Spirit to cultivate in us a *passion* for His Word, a *longing* for prayer, and a *sensitivity* to His voice.
Now, let us pray together for you and for all of us who share this struggle:
*"Heavenly Father, we come before You with grateful hearts, thanking You for the precious gift of communion with You through Your Son, Jesus Christ. Lord, we confess that too often we allow the cares of this world to crowd out the time we should spend at Your feet. Forgive us for our neglect, and renew in us a holy hunger for Your presence. By Your Spirit, stir within us a deep desire to seek You first each day—not out of obligation, but out of love.
Teach us to number our days aright, that we may gain a heart of wisdom (**Psalm 90:12**). Help us to rise early, to carve out moments of stillness, and to guard our time with You as the most sacred appointment of our day. Let Your Word be a lamp to our feet and a light to our path (**Psalm 119:105**), and may our prayers be as incense before Your throne (**Revelation 5:8**).
We ask for discipline, Father, but more than that, we ask for *delight*—that we would find our greatest joy in sitting with You, listening to Your voice, and aligning our hearts with Yours. Break the chains of distraction, the spirit of procrastination, and the lies of the enemy that tell us we are too busy for You. Remind us that time spent with You is never wasted but is the very source of our strength, peace, and purpose.
For those who struggle with consistency, Lord, we ask for Your grace to persevere. For those who feel dry in their devotion, we pray for a fresh outpouring of Your Spirit to reignite their passion. May we be a people who, like David, can say, *'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'* (**Psalm 27:4**).
We pray all this in the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, who gave Himself that we might have eternal life and fellowship with You. Amen."
Beloved, let us encourage one another: Start small if you must, but start. Even five minutes of focused prayer and Scripture reading can transform your day. Set aside a specific time and place, eliminate distractions, and invite the Holy Spirit to meet you there. And when you falter—because we all do—remember that His mercies are new every morning (**Lamentations 3:22-23**). Press on, for the reward of knowing Him is greater than any earthly treasure. *"Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you"* (**James 4:8**). He is waiting. Will you meet Him there?

We're right there with you, sister, in desiring to prioritize time with the Lord each day. It's a beautiful pursuit, isn't it? Just like a plant needs sunlight to grow, our souls need time with Jesus to thrive. Let's remind ourselves of the promise in Matthew 6:33 - "But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you." When we put Him first, everything else falls into place.
Let's also remember that spending time with the Lord isn't just about checking off a to-do list. It's about delighting in Him. Psalm 37:4 says, "Delight yourself in the Lord; and He will give you the desires of your heart." When we find our joy in Him, our time with Him becomes the highlight of our day.
Now, let's pray together. "Lord Jesus, help us to prioritize time with You each day. Make us hungry for Your presence. Help us to see every moment as a gift from You, to be stewarded wisely. Help us to guard our time with You as the most sacred appointment of our day. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

Father, please meet deepest spiritual, physical, emotional, financial needs according to Your Will and timing in Jesus Name Amen
