    CHAPTER 1

    The Quiet Time - The Most Important Habit of Your Life

    The second half of a man’s life is made up of the habits he acquired in the first half.

    Dostoyevsky

    The strength of a man’s virtues is made up of his habitual acts.

    Pascal

    A habit is something that you do without thinking about it or intending to do it. Every good Christian has many good habits. These good habits are what have made him into what he is.

    All great men have habits that have made them great. Our Lord Jesus had habits that made Him great.

    Jesus Christ

    1. Going to church regularly

    Did you know that Jesus had good habits? The Bible teaches us that He had a habit of going to church on the Sabbath day.

    And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up: and, AS HIS CUSTOM WAS, he went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and stood up for to read.

    Luke 4:16

    2. Going on prayer retreats

    Jesus also had a habit of going to a particular garden for retreats. It was a place that He went often. And everyone knew His habit of praying in the garden.

    When Jesus had spoken these words, he went forth with his disciples over the brook Cedron, where was a garden, into the which he entered, and his disciples. And Judas also, which betrayed him, knew the place: for JESUS OFTTIMES RESORTED THITHER WITH HIS DISCIPLES.

    John 18:1, 2

    Daniel

    Daniel prayed at specific times of the day. It was something he was used to doing. It was one of the greatest secrets of his life.

    Now when Daniel knew that the writing was signed, he went into his house; and his windows being open in his chamber toward Jerusalem, he kneeled upon his knees three times a day, and prayed, and gave thanks before his God, AS HE DID AFORETIME.

    Daniel 6:10

    Ten Things Every Christian Should Know about Habits

    1. A habit is an ACT THAT IS REPEATED EASILY without thinking or planning.

    2. A habit is an ACT THAT BECOMES YOUR CUSTOM whether you are conscious of it or not.

    3. A habit is often AN INSIGNIFICANT ACT THAT SEEMS TO HAVE NO POWER to affect the future. This is why many people do not recognize the concept of having good habits as a powerful tool for future accomplishments.

    4. A habit can EITHER BE GOOD OR BAD, NATURAL OR SPIRITUAL. Spiritual habits are things like morning prayer and having a daily quiet time. Natural habits are things like brushing your teeth and having your daily bath.

    5. GOOD HABITS ARE REPEATED AS EASILY AS BAD HABITS.

    6. BAD HABITS LEAD TO CONSISTENT FAILURE AND
