The secret place of prayer

But when you pray, go into your room and shut the door and pray to your Father who is in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you (Matthew 6:6)

This secret place alone with God is called the “inner chamber.” It can be anywhere, but it must be a quiet time alone with God. God is in the place of prayer and it is filled with His love. This is the Father’s invitation to you, telling you that He is waiting for you in the secret place of prayer.
 To shut the door and pray to Him in secret, how marvelous! Jesus taught His disciples that this is where the Father would be found, that He waited for them there. It is there that we are able to find God’s pattern for our day or for our life. You receive that guidance in the secret place of prayer where His Spirit empowers you.
The help you need is found in prayer and fellowship with God in the secret chamber of prayer. It was never in God’s plan that you should do otherwise than look to Him for strength, look to Him for His leading, for Him to pilot you and help you. That is why the secret place of prayer is so important: Because there you get equipped and put on the armor of God to stand in the battle.
Put on the gospel armor and God’s Word says that He, the King of Glory who reigns eternally, will empower you by His own power. Why go through life ill-equipped when God offers in love just what you need? -Virginia Brandt Berg [1]

It is in the secret place where God begins to unfold His mysteries to your spirit. It is in the secret place where you get to discover who you are in Christ. - Smith Wigglesworth
