The Quiet Place

Every believer needs quiet time to talk with God and a solitary place set aside to pray. The Word in Psalm 91:1 records, "He that dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty." Here Scripture speaks about each of us having a secret place to dwell within. To dwell means to reside, to wait, to sustain.  

A Scripture found in Matthew 6:6 continues to confirm the power of the secret place of prayer in our lives, "when you pray, go into your room and when you have shut the door, pray to your Father who is in the secret place; and your Father who sees in secret shall reward you openly."

Do you realize that your prayer encounters with God can change circumstances and impact nations? Do you understand that your prayers can pivot history, pour out healing, rain down revival, and change hearts? Scripture teaches that God hears and answers the prayers of His people.


The life of Jesus was a life of prayer. We are encouraged to follow His model of example and heed the Scripture of Matt 6:6. It is important that we do not fail to go into our secret place, and pray with childlike faith and simplicity - because God still answers prayers.
