1 Kings 19:4-12
Jesus found it necessary to seek solitude regularly, to fellowship with the Father and gain strength. He did it when he needed preparation, wisdom, and rest, or when he was in mourning. He also sought solitude when he was caught in busyness, or before important events. Let Jesus be our example. As Elijah of old, listen for God's quiet voice.

2 Timothy 3:10-17
Every part of Scripture is God-breathed and useful one way or another—showing us truth, exposing our rebellion, correcting our mistakes, training us to live God’s way. Through the Word we are put together and shaped for the tasks God has for us. As we read the Bible, we need to let the Bible read us.

Acts 20:18-35
As we review how we spend our time during a week, how much was spent serving God and others? In order to impact the lives of others, we need to spend time getting to know them, and seeking to serve them. In the Acts passage, we find Paul speaking of his investment into the lives of those in the early Church.

2 Corinthians 8:1-12, 9:6-11
An important part of spiritual renewal is Generosity, which is a reflection of God's grace. Jesus was generous, so we should be also. It is sacrificial and always requires faith. Sowing seeds of generosity reaps a generous harvest of joy.

Isaiah 58
As we continue to consider the subject of Fasting, we see in Isaiah 58 that it's more than just a time to grow in holiness and maturity. A natural result of spiritual growth is the desire for justice and mercy for the poor. God calls us to have compassion on the physical needs of others, as well as the spiritual needs.

Matthew 4:1-11
Taking regular time to fast and pray helps our whole person to grow spiritually. 1- it weans us off cycles of pleasure, 2- it helps reveal what is truly in our heart, 3- it helps reorder our priorities, 4- it enables us to draw our power from God to overcome sin. "Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God."

John 3:5-8
There is one God, three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit reveals Himself to us by the life He births in us. The Holy Spirit empowers us, so that He may reveal Himself to others. The Holy Spirit brings us clarity where there is confusion.

Isaiah 58:13-14
Our time of Sabbath rest should be a delight, not a burden. We should delight in the things that delight God. He delights in His Creation, so we should take time to enjoy nature. He delights in His children, so we should spend some time with other believers. He delights in love, justice & righteousness, so we should serve others. Even as He delights in His Son, Jesus, so should we take time with him.

Genesis 2:1-3
Our culture pressures us to be busy. Jesus wants to give us rest. We can experience Jesus more if we set aside some time each week to rest and fellowship with Him. By surrendering a time of contemplation before God, we are renewed physically, mentally, and spiritually. It's a glimpse of eternity.
