Appointment with Jesus

by

Dr Gavin D Williams

This book is about a journey; a journey into the secret place where you and Jesus sit together in quiet communion. In these pages you will be invited to step aside from the busy flow of life and ministry and to learn the art of stillness and quietness. You will discover a place where the struggles of life come into perspective. You will be challenged to seek the quite ministry of the Holy Spirit bringing peace to those troubled places in your soul. You will be challenged to learn to hear the voice of God speaking gently into the deepest recesses of your life. It is my hope that you will discover his gentle hand leading you step by step into his purposes for you. It is my prayer that you will learn to rise from the secret place into greater effectiveness in life and ministry.

The Theme of the book is expressed in this key statement:

The disciplined life in the secret place sets the foundation for effective ministry in the public place.

This book has three sections.

Section I. The Disciplined life in the Secret Place. Here we explore the Biblical principles of learning to dwell in the secret place of the Most High God.

Section II. Developing Your Secret Place with God. There are some practical principles which form the foundation of the disciplined life. We will explore these foundations and give practical guidance for establishing an effective and lasting Appointment with Jesus.

Section III. Disciplines of the Spiritual Journey. There are a variety of spiritual disciplines which God’s people have found helpful in seeking a deeper walk with God. We will explore some of these disciplines in a practical way which I hope will enable you to consider their application to your life.

Some parts of this book you will read only once for the truth to touch your heart. Other parts you will return to again and again as you need to be refreshed in one or other of the disciplines of the spiritual journey. However you use this book, it is my hope and prayer that God will touch your heart with a deep hunger for His presence. It is only in His presence you will discover that effectiveness in Christian life and ministry rise out of who you are in Christ and not what you do for Him.
