     We want to be world changers, we want to minister for Jesus, we want revival in America, in our church and in our families.  For these things to happen, it all starts in the secret place.  It starts with men and women who are committed to spending quality time with the Lord.  It starts with those who will make their time with the Lord first priority and let nothing stop them from having this time alone with Him.  For it is these times that transform us into His image, that root us and ground us in Christ, that give us strength for the storms, that give us wisdom for every situation.  It is these times that we receive the anointing from the Lord that destroys yokes and removes burdens.
     In the scriptures we see Jesus often going to the lonely places to commune with His Father.  Jesus sets the example for us in everything.
      Too often we see Christian leaders who burn out or who fall into sin.  I believe this is almost always because of a lack of quality time with the Lord.  This time is the only thing that can provide the needed refilling and refreshing of the spirit.
      I want to be a world changer, I want to fulfill God's calling for my life, so my first priority has to be spending time with God, in prayer and in the Word!  Lord, I pray, above all that you will cause me to be faithful in prayer and time with You, in your Word so I can be the best wife, mother, friend, family member, servant of God that I can possibly be.  In Jesus name, Amen!
