10 Minutes Well Spent

Growing as a Believer

There is a rich benefit to be gained by setting aside just 10 minutes alone with God each day.
This is a simple plan for spending a few minutes in prayer and getting into His Word.
We strongly recommend this for many reasons, but probably the most significant one is that by spending this time alone with Him you will find yourself becoming transformed more and more into the kind of person that He wants you to be.

Find a place where you can be alone with God.

Thank Him for who He is, and what He has done for you, especially in sending Jesus to suffer and die on the cross to take away your sins.
Confess to Him things you have thought or done that you know are not pleasing to Him.
(I John 1:9 says, "If we confess our sins He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and cleanse us from all unrighteousness.")

Ask Him to open your heart to His Word, the Bible.

Begin reading in the Gospel of John, and continue through Acts.

You don't need to read a large portion, just what you can that day.
It might only be one chapter, or even one paragraph. It is like food to you, and will feed you spiritually.

Then finish by thanking Him, again, for His Word, and what you have gained from it.
Ask Him to fill you with His Holy Spirit, and to help you to bring glory to Him and be pleasing to Him throughout your day.
Last of all, ask Him to provide opportunities to speak to others about Him and His wonderful plan of salvation.
