Read David Jeremiah 15th May 2025 Daily Devotional Thursday Turning Point Devotional Message
TOPIC: The Quiet Time
But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet.
Matthew 6:6, KJV
RECOMMENDED READING
Matthew 6:5-8
Karol Ladd said when her mother was growing up, she took Matthew 6:6 literally. “Mom grew up in Texas, and everything in Texas is big, including the closets. When Mom wanted to be alone with God, she went into her prayer closet. Her parents knew that if they hadn’t seen her in a while, they could always find her there.”
Newer translations render the word differently: your inner room…your private room… your inner chamber…a quiet, secluded space. The idea is finding privacy to spend time with the Lord. If we only meet Him when we have time or happen to think about it, our relationship with Him will be haphazard.
In order for God’s Word to be effective in changing our lives, we must make it a daily habit and an enriching appointment. We engage in talking to Him (prayer) and listening to Him (Bible reading). Remember, your connection with God is a relationship, and good relationships require time and tending. Tend to your relationship today.
TURNING POINT
Reading and studying the Bible is a basic requirement for the Christian’s growth, and happily it can be one of his most enjoyable experiences from day to day.
