I think we would all agree that this one area, of faithfully spending time alone with God, is the area we struggle with as believers more than any other aspect of our Christian walk. In all other aspects of our walk we have others who can hold us accountable, but this is one area where we have to hold ourselves accountable. This is the part of our spiritual history that is hidden from the view of others, known only to the Lord and ourselves. The enemy is always at hand to offer justifiable excuses to muffle our conscience, be- cause he knows the spiritual power in the life of a believer who spends time in the Father’s presence. We are engaged in spiritual warfare as we endeavor to set aside this precious time to press on in. Having been there many times myself I cried out in desperation: “Teach me, Lord, to draw near that I may truly worship you! Why do I struggle with drawing near to be alone with You, when I know it is a privilege, and that privilege had an awesome price?”
