If you want to build your relationship with God, then these Bible verses on spending time with God will inspire you today. God is always telling us that He wants to spend time with us, but we are not paying attention to His words. Our response to God is often like how teens feel toward their parents, whom they perceive to be annoying.
You never needed a reason before to spend time with God. When you were new in the Lord, you would run to the prayer closet, but now the fire has fizzled out. Television, Instagram, and work have killed your passion for God. You forget that your unsaved friends and family need to hear the gospel and be saved.
So I hope these Bible Verses About Spending Time With God will inspire you to ignite the fire inside you again.
