The Secret Place

The Secret Place

In His renowned Sermon on the Mount, Jesus exhorted His followers to find a secret place to pray knowing that God sees them and hears them (Matthew 6:6). This practice of hidden prayer is important for a few reasons. Among them is that He knows we all have some sort of secret life hidden to others. Praying in secret is one the most redemptive and holy ways we can spend our alone time. When we’re engaged in spiritual practices when nobody but God is looking, it proves that our faith in authentic. It shows that we truly believe God sees us. So, friend, frequent that secret place. Develop a hidden life in prayer. God promises to reward those who do. Now that’s something to pray about!
