6 moments matching quiet time, word for word. Open them ↓
  1. 13:58 It's the same idea that our prayerlessness is not from a lack of time. It's for lack of conviction that I don't spend more time with the Lord. So that's the that's kind of the long, quiet time and we'll come back to this a little bit. But then also throughout the day, I do what I kind of call walkie talkie prayers. I'm sure you guys do this as well, especially as summertime tourist traffic gets here. Whatever You Ask in My Name
  2. 49:37 I was convicted by this John Piper quote, so you get to be as well, which is that one of the great uses of Twitter and Facebook will be to prove at the last day that prayerlessness was not from a lack of time. You can get as uncomfortable as you want, it's going to stay on the screen. I would add Netflix or shopping or the news or whatever relevant blogs or podcasts. It's the same idea that our prayerlessness is not from a lack of time, it's for lack of conviction that I don't spend more time with the Lord. So that's kind of the long slow quiet time and we'll come back to this a little bit. Whatever You Ask in My Name · Brad Yates
  3. 14:55 That is praying without ceasing. But it can turn out to be a little bit more like the neighbor who never really wants to develop time with you or develop a relationship, but they just want to borrow your tools or help you load something into the truck. It just stays a shallow relationship. Instead, prayer is like eating and a dedicated quiet time. That's like the big meal of the day. Whatever You Ask in My Name
  4. 51:21 Instead, prayer is like eating and a dedicated quiet time, that's like the big meal of the day. And these walkie talkie prayers, they're like little snacks. Now when you get busy, you can survive on snacks and fast food. But I think most of us have discovered at some point that's how you survive, but that's not how you thrive. And it's the same thing with our prayer life. Whatever You Ask in My Name · Brad Yates
  5. 33:28 And yet, because of our sin and our self righteous tendencies, we can also over index on them and make the opposite error. From an internal perspective, this is like thinking, I'm a good boy because today I had a quiet time, or I gave money to the church, or I didn't give in to my lust desire. We can also make the opposite and we can go, man, there's no way God can accept me. Because today I did that thing that I know I'm not supposed to do, or I didn't do that thing that I know I'm supposed to do. Our adoption is not contingent on our performance. Share the Hope That Is in You
  6. 5:28 They're not to be ignored. And yet, because of our sinful hearts, because of our self righteous tendencies, we can also make the opposite mistake of over indexing our identity based on our performance of those imperatives. Most of us wouldn't say that out loud or even really think it consciously, but but internally what that can sound like is, I'm a good boy because today I had a quiet time or I gave money to the church or I wasn't controlled by anger or didn't give in the lust. Therefore, God has to accept me. The opposite can also be true, where we can assume that because I failed on some construct that there's no way that God could love me. Awkward Is Better Than Silent
