incredible plan for your future. So let's just join Rick right now with the final part of a message

called Your Choice, Bless or Stress.

God says, I will bless everything you do if you will meet these conditions, meet these promised conditions.

Let's look at them. Number one, first, God promises to bless my life if I meet with him daily.

That's the first qualification.

If I meet with him, meet with God daily.

And in class 201, we call this a quiet time.

I don't care what you call it.

Just do it.

It's five minutes, ten minutes, fifteen minutes,

where you make a date with God every day.

And you get alone with God and you just sit there and you be quiet and say, God, is there anything you want to say to me?

And you talk to God in prayer about the stuff you're worried about and you read a little bit of the Bible, and you let him speak to you,

and you just be quiet, you just kind of check in with the commander-in-chief for operating instructions for that day.

Now, some of you, the best time usually to do this is right when you start your day.

You get up in the morning, and the first person you talk to is God. But some of you, you're not awake when you start your day. You get up in the morning and the first person you talk to is God.

But some of you, you're not awake when you wake up. So you shouldn't meet with God in the morning.
