Time With God – Part 7

Revised Edition Part Seven

Welcome back to Time With God, Part Seven of Eight. If you haven’t read Part One through Four yet, I encourage you to catch up here, here, here , here here and here. .. This journey is transformative, and starting from the beginning will help you engage fully with the message.

We live in a world governed by time, 60 minutes in an hour, 24 hours in a day, and so on. But how much of that time are we dedicating to God? While time is a gift, it’s easy to let distractions steal it away.

Do you eagerly anticipate your Time With God? Or does life get in the way? Spending Time With God, through prayer, worship, and Bible reading, should be our highest priority.

Are you still?

Are you taking time to truly connect with God? Or have you been distracted, missing out on the transformative power of being in His presence?

As we continue this series, I encourage you to reflect on your Time With God. Let’s prioritize it together. Don’t forget to subscribe so you don’t miss the next part of this life-changing journey.

Be Blessed and Be a Blessing..

You have so much potential, and the world is ready and waiting for you to show it. You have gifts and talents that only you possess, and the world needs to see them. Don’t be afraid to open the door and let God in, for He already knows what lies ahead and He has great plans for you. His plans will be better than anything you could ever imagine, so trust in Him and let His will be done. God is knocking at your door, so open it and welcome Him in. He will help you to make the right decisions and guide you along the path of life. His plans will bring you joy and satisfaction, and you will be able to truly experience the joy of living. Open the door and let Him in, and you will find out what the world has been waiting for.

John 10:9 – 21st Century King James Version
I am the door; by Me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture.

Let us take a moment of quiet reflection and allow God to show us all that He has done and all that He has planned for us. Let us be open to His will and allow Him to lead us on the path of His choosing. Let us be thankful for His love and the plans He has for us and let us be confident that He will bring about the very best for us.

Proverbs 16:9 – Revised Standard Version
A man’s mind plans his way, but the Lord directs his steps.

I can personally attest to the power of God and the miraculous changes that He has worked in my life. From being an unbeliever, a doubter, and a sinner, I can attest to God’s grace and mercy in transforming me and renewing my heart. If He could do this for me, He can do it for each and every one of us. No matter our past, no matter our present, God is there to provide us with hope and to offer us a new life. He is there to renew our hearts and to show us the way to a brighter and better future. He is there to give us strength, courage, and peace. Believe me, if God could change me, He can do the same for you.

Are you not the least bit curious and anxious to see what God might do if you surrender yourself to Him? Are you not tired of trying it your way, when it has not worked? You may think it has done you some good, and you may have achieved some successes. But God promises us so much more than what we can ever imagine. Why not take a chance and let Him show you what He can do? Don’t you want to find out what He can do when you give Him control of your life? Take a leap of faith and do it now. You won’t regret it.

Time With God doesn’t have to be complicated. All we have to do is make it a priority. This means setting aside time each day to pray. A great way to do this is to say a short prayer when you wake up in the morning and when you go to bed at night. Both prayers can be the same. How about this: “Thank You, God, for this day”. Starting and ending your day with this simple 6-word prayer is a great way to show your appreciation for God and all that He has done for you.

Once you are comfortable with this, you can expand this prayer by thanking God not only for the day itself, but also for something you are grateful for that has happened within that day. You can use this time to talk to God and make Him your friend, your brother, your Father, your diary, your Siri, your purpose, and or your priority. As you come to Him with your heart open and honest, you can trust that you will receive the guidance you seek in order to have a meaningful and fulfilling day.

    These are very strong beliefs Willie. I can attest to the fact that talking to God everyday has transformed my attitude. It is the answers that guide my life now that I have learned to listen. I talk to him in brief intervals thanking him for not only forgiveness but the direction he has for me and for carrying me through the turmoil of not believing.

    Surrendering control to God during my adolescence was scary because I thought: “What if He wants something different than what I want?” Much later I understood that true happiness only exists when we are in total alignment with God. Nowadays, it’s comfortable for me to surrender to His will. Thank you for such an important reflection! 🙏🏼✨💭

      It really is scary at first, but so freeing later. And when we fail, the enemy tries to use shame to pull us away, but he is a liar. God’s love does not change, and His grace always calls us back.

    The best time of day for me is my morning time with God. I have a regular meeting place—in the shower. There is something about the flowing of the water as it runs down from my head to my feet that feels like a fresh anointing. In these times I get revelation, consolation, inspiration, and rejuvenation.

    As the day unfolds, I carry the peace and clarity from these morning moments into every encounter and challenge. This practice grounds me, reinforcing my spiritual defenses and helping me recognize subtle temptations before they can take root. The sense of renewal I receive each morning becomes a shield, reminding me to actively seek God’s presence and guidance throughout the day, so my thoughts and actions remain anchored and my heart stays attuned to His truth.

    This is a great teaching series, Willie. I pray that everyone who reads it will understand the importance of spending time with God.

    Thank you, brother, and God bless you, and this blog.

    Willie, good stuff. So many think their prayers need to be eloquent, long. But the simplest are sometimes the best:

    I know from experience that God’s plans will be better than anything I could ever imagine, but sometimes I forget. Thank you very much for this reminder and the reminder to make time with God a priority. I really like the simple prayer suggestion at the end and how to expand on it gradually. I do a morning prayer like that sometimes, “God, thank you for all the blessings in this life,” but I would like to be more consistent, morning and evening. Thanks for the nudge!

    Thank you so much for this reminder to pray first thing in the mornings, Willie! Hubby and I say this prayer every night before we go to sleep, “Thank you Lord for this day…” but I’ve been remiss to thank the Lord when my feet touch the floor every morning (and I used to do that).

      Sheila, Thank you so much for Reading and Sharing… That nightly prayer is beautiful, and it’s so encouraging to hear how intentional you both are. Mornings can be such a gentle reset. Even a simple, Thank You, Lord, for another day of life, which is usually how I start my morning, can make a huge difference in our day.

      God Bless You both, today and always…🙏

    Making time with God a priority–that’s the place we excel or fail. You’ve brought up wonderful truths, especially that it’s not complicated. We make time. He always has time for us; He never tires of us coming to Him, and He never abandons or forgets us. He’s there if we show up. This was spectacular, my friend.

      Thank you so much, Dear Dayle. And Thank you for Reading and Commenting…

      You are so right, He is always there, always waiting, never weary of us.

      All Glory and Praise belong to God alone. I’m grateful He used these words to remind us of that simple, faithful truth.

      God Bless you, my Dear Sister, today and always…🙏

    Amen, brother! Poignant and profound as always. The world has many distractions and the enemy uses them to take our focus off our Heavenly Father and the above and beyond good and perfect gifts He offers instead. When we consider His unconditional love, mercy, compassion, protection and provision, devoted time with Him should come easy and be a priority every day! Thank you for pointing us to the abundant life found only in and through Him! Amen! 💛🫂💯🙏🙏🙏

      Amen 🙏🤗 YES !!! Thank you for this and Thank you for Reading ….

      You said it so well. There are so many distractions pulling at us every day, and it doesn’t take much for our focus to drift. But when we stop and truly consider His love, mercy, and faithfulness, Time With God isn’t a burden, it becomes a privilege.

What Ya’ Thinking?

I’m Willie

Hello and Welcome to my Website.
My name is William Torres, but my family and friends call me Willie. It is a pleasure to be here with you today, and I am excited to share my faith journey with you.

My journey has been amazing and fulfilling as a new Christian. I have seen God work in my life in ways I never could have imagined. I have grown closer to my faith and have seen Him work in my life and the lives of those around me. I am truly blessed to call myself a Christian, and I am excited to continue to grow in my faith.

I believe that I have come a long way in life. Over the years, I have worked hard to become a better man, husband to Frances Torres, and father to our children. I have strived to be a good friend and companion to those I have been fortunate to build relationships with. I have learned to appreciate the small moments of joy and fulfillment that come with every human connection.

I began writing stories that I believe were inspired by the Holy Spirit. These stories are my testimonies about the different trials I have gone through, and how the Lord has helped me to overcome them. Through this process, I’ve discovered that I can forgive those I once vowed to never forgive, and in turn, my relationships with them have been restored. They are now a huge blessing and a special part of my life.

I hope that through my writing I can be a source of encouragement to other people in their faith and relationship with the Lord. I pray that those who read my words will be blessed by the Lord and find strength and comfort in His Word.

To be honest, I have had to come to terms with the fact that I am not perfect, but it is in this place of acceptance that I am able to truly worship a God who is. His infinite love brings me joy, strength, and peace, and I am thankful for the privilege of being able to serve Him.

I have also started a Social Media Ministry on Facebook, which I invite you to visit here. Being Crazy For Christ is a platform where I share my journey of faith, and I am also on YouTube – Willie Torres Jr. and I am excited to see all that God will do through it.

This is my hope, and I’m so thankful for it. I’m thankful for the love of Jesus, and I’m thankful for the chance to grow in Him together with you.

You Are Loved

Willie Torres Jr.
