 Meet Him in the Morning

Meet Him in the Morning

"Be ready in the morning, and come ...present thyself there to me in the top of the mount. And no man shall come up with thee" (Exod. 34:2-3).

The morning watch is essential. You must not face the day until you have faced God, nor look into the face of others until you have looked into His.

You cannot expect to be victorious, if the day begins only in your own strength. Face the work of every day with the influence of a few thoughtful, quiet moments with your heart and God. Do not meet other people, even those of your own home, until you have first met the great Guest and honored Companion of your life--Jesus Christ.

Meet Him alone. Meet Him regularly. Meet Him with His open Book of counsel before you; and face the regular and the irregular duties of each day with the influence of His personality definitely controlling your every act.


Begin the day with God!
He is thy Sun and Day!
His is the radiance of thy dawn;
To Him address thy lay.

Sing a new song at morn!
Join the glad woods and hills;
Join the fresh winds and seas and plains,
Join the bright flowers and rills.

Sing thy first song to God!
Not to thy fellow men;
Not to the creatures of His hand,
But to the glorious One.

Take thy first walk with God!
Let Him go forth with thee;
By stream, or sea, or mountain path,
Seek still His company.

Thy first transaction be
With God Himself above;
So shall thy business prosper well,
And all the day be love.

--Horatius Bonar

A well spoken word. And so needy.

I so love the writings of Horatius Bonar, they speak volumes.

God bless.

O How I love to seek Him early in the morning!
No better place to be...No better thing to do...


My voice You shall hear in the morning, O LORD;
In the morning I will direct it to You,
And I will look up. Psalm 5:3
Psalm 5:3


But to You I have cried out, O LORD,
And in the morning my prayer comes before You
Psalm 88:13

Cause me to hear Your lovingkindness in the morning,
For in You do I trust;
Cause me to know the way in which I should walk,
For I lift up my soul to You.
Psalm 143:8

Amen! Thank you for this Browny. Beautifully true.

And I pray for those who long to have this precious time but things just make it hard. That You, Heavenly Father, would hear the desires of those who long to have that morning time with You, that You would make a way for them Lord. It we cant do anything without Your help.

We were created for Your good pleasure.

We pray also that there would be more of a hunger and thirst to take that precious time to be with You Heavenly Father.

Psalm 34:8 Oh, taste and see that the LORD [is] good; Blessed [is] the man [who] trusts in Him!

Once this time begins one will not ever want to be without it as He will be there. No better fellowship than His as was stated. All glory to God!

Amen to all your words Joyful-Heart!!

For many years I have the habit to rise very early in the morning and climb the “mountain of prayer”
To be alone with the Lord. It is such a sweet wonderful time to be with Him in the quietness of the early day. When I awake there is a longing in my heart to simple be with Him.
I want to encourage every child of G’d, when not use to seek Him first in the morning, to START DOING SO. It is the FRESH MANNA HE WILL FEED YOUR INNER BEING WITH.
Shalom to all of you my dear brothers and sisters.
