“Arise, go out into the plain, and there I shall talk with you.” - Ezekiel 3:22
The Lord’s invitation to step away from the noise of the world and meet Him in solitude is not just for the prophet—it is for all who seek Him. To those who respond, He gives this promise: I will talk with you. How unwise it would be to ignore such a privilege.
When I neglect time with Jesus, the temptations become stronger and more difficult to resist. When I fail to listen to God’s voice in His Word, other, strange voices will inevitably reach me. If I do not spend time in the presence of Jesus, I will misuse my time and waste it. If I do not behold the wonders of His Word, my eyes will wander to the vain things of this world. I have experienced both the blessings of quiet times with the Lord and the harm of neglecting them. Let me learn a lesson from this.
Let me not neglect the great privilege of spending much time in the presence of the Lord. If walking with the wise makes a man wise, how much more will spending time with the Source of all wisdom transform me?
