Alone with God

A child of God needs to spend some time alone with God. When Jacob was returning to meet his brother Esau, who had become very rich, he was trembled. He knew that Esau had the power to take vengeance on him. He knew that the only way to be free from the impending doom was to stay alone with God. Then he sent all his wives, children, sheep, oxen, camels, and donkeys ahead of him. And he was left alone with God.
He wrestled with God through the night. Eventually, he was blessed by God. Sometimes, we need to sever ourselves from our possessions in order to encounter God. You can set aside some days when you would be alone with God. I am really thrilled by the faith of some couples who spend their Christmas period in Maryland. These people leave the fun and pleasure of Christmas celebrations just to be with the Lord. Today, they are giving their testimonies. Indeed, you too need to set out some time to pour out your heart content to the Lord. You need to approach him alone to ask him to bless you. Jacob said 'I will never let you go unless you bless me'. If you can remain dauntless in your demand to be blessed; God's blessings would fall upon you.
Find time to be alone with the Lord today. If your house is so busy, go to the church and spend some quality time with the Lord. There, unload your heart content to him.
