Daily devotions are vital, but sometimes you will need more. When you sense that the Lord is calling you to spend a larger block of time with Him, consider these two options:
(1) Devote a quarter or a half or a whole day to the Lord (praying, reading, listening to Christian teachings/music, meditating, taking notes on the Lord’s messages to your heart, and so on). This plan is best achieved when your family is gone from the home, or when you can get away from your home to a quiet place without interruptions.
(2) Devote an extra hour or so to fellowshipping with the Lord. This suggestion can normally be achieved by dedicating the final hour of your day, before going to bed, to the Lord. If this idea won’t work for you, stay up an extra hour after everyone is asleep, or get up an hour before everyone else. You can do this one time or several times back to back.
When regular devotions aren’t enough for you, spend a larger block of time with the Lord for renewal and revelation. Ask Him to help you find a place and a time when you can sit-and-soak with Him.
