CONCLUSION
If I could leave you with only one thought, it would be: God wants you to enjoy His presence as He enjoys yours. That is the beauty of spending time alone with God. These reflections will help you be more aware of God’s presence in your life. Take a moment each day to focus on these simple truths.
Surrender. Place yourself in God’s hands and surrender your will to His will.
Celebrate. Listen to worship music and appreciate who God is and what He has done.
Meditate. Reflect on the Scriptures and let the Holy Spirit apply them to your life.
Open. Allow the Holy Spirit to bring adjustments to specific areas of your life.
Dedicate. Commit your day to God’s use and ask for His help.
Listen. Be still and let God speak to you.
Obey. Respond in faith to God’s specific direction.
Remember, the point of this challenge is not to get stressed out about a format, a formula, or a schedule. It is simply to meet with God and see where that takes you. In conclusion, the acrostic REST emphasizes both the peaceful and restful nature of this prayer time as well as a few key points to remember:
REST
Then Jesus said, “Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. (Matthew 11:28)
R Reserve a time each morning
E Enjoy His presence with worship music and the Word
S Surrender your will to His will
T Trust the Lord with your life
