TOPIC:  NEW DEVOTION FOR NEW REVELATIONS

TEXT: “when they were alone He explained all things to His disciples” (Mark4:34)

A recent survey confirms what most of us suspects; stress increases as work encroaches more and more on our personal time. The electronic age hasn’t slowed the onslaught of mails, books and periodicals. 

We must read just to keep up. A PR consultant who fields four hundred emails, one hundred phone calls and twenty text messages every day says ‘I used to stop working when it got too late to make calls, but now I am never finished. Now she lives in a country behind the mountain because no phone signals there, and if they ever erect a mobile transmitter mast she says she will move!

In the midst of the hustle and bustle of city life, its critical to schedule one on one time with God, otherwise the supernatural things won’t happen. Mark says ‘when they were alone, He explained all things to His disciples. There are things the Lord will reveal to you alone when you meditate with all your heart…and be still (Psalm4:4). It is said the ancient fathers used to commit themselves to disciplinary creed, silence, solitude and inner peace. Only after adequate amount of time they consider it fit to speak. Among many Christians today there are strange logic suggesting the spiritual resources are found in seeking new voices, attending more meetings, listening to incessant music, and gathering to exchange half thought out opinions. How often do we fall into the trap of believing that God is most pleased when we’ve maximized our information, our schedules, and our relationships? Disengagement means silence before God…a time of heavenly discussion during which we listen more than we speak. And silence demand solitude. The bottom line is, you need one on one time with the Lord.
