I thank God for the seasons in our life that He brings. For everything there is a time and a season under the heavens. Lately, I have been able to separate myself while at work, during lunch, on a daily basis. After having these opportunities to do so, I can now see why the Lord would have us to come before Him daily. We need to consume our daily bread from God. Below is what the Lord gave me yesterday during my time of prayer and worship during lunch (words in parentheses are understandings the Lord gave me during this time of separation):
Colossians 2:6,10
6As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord (in faith), so walk ye in him (in faith):
10And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power (there is nothing more than the Spirit of Truth living in us, we can be baptized with the same baptism that He was baptized with)
Those who desire for My will to be done in their lives must live on every word that proceeds out of My mouth. For it is by these words that your foundation is laid, line upon line, precept upon precept. Count all as loss, and take up up your cross and follow Me for those who know Me know that their reward is with Me. Just as I and the Father are one so are you one with us, for My Spirit does dwell in you. Be no respecter of persons, but I tell you let every word that is spoken by man be judged by My Spirit according to My word. Know you not that the rivers of living waters flow out of your belly? Do not hold back, but rather open your eyes to see that there are many who are thirsty and who do desire to drink of the pure waters. You are My vessels therefore I tell you, pour out.
(Servants of old had to wait on God to speak and pour out by His Spirit for they did not have the baptism of the Holy Spirit as we do now--rivers of living water flowing out of our bellies. Jesus said, "Verily I say unto you, Among them that are born of women there hath not risen a greater than John the Baptist: notwithstanding he that is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he." (Matthew 11:11))
You are called and chosen for such a time as this. And I have preserved you and hid you until now. Even as I came to bring division, so do I send you. That when you speak the words that I lay on your heart, men will choose to hear and obey (the wheat) or choose against Me (the chaff). All you must do is speak, as I spoke, for they must choose who they will serve.
Come to the top of mountain, away from the sound of battle and the noise of the archers. Where the fullness of what I have for you is revealed and where the pure water is poured out. Come, take you place with Me this day, The battle is not yours. The battle is Mine.
Obedience is better than sacrifice.
I pray that God would be glorified in all of us and that we would never take anything He speaks lightly.
God bless,
Ryan

That's a good word bud. It really blesses me and confirms things in my spirit that the Lord has been showing me. Stay in the peace, and God bless you.
