In this insightful book, we hear how immensely valuable and important solitude is when consulting God for counsel and spiritual direction.
The notion of 'secret communion', wherein a believer approaches the Lord in prayer, is the topic at hand. Making a case for the principle of consulting God alone and in private, George Halley Knight explains how the ceaseless activity and hubbub of modern existence deprives the mind and spirit of much-needed silence. The allotment of a mere few minutes daily to solitary consultation can, in the writer's view, aid immensely in the spiritual health of all Christians.
There are various other advantages to consulting with God in private; the unseen spirits are inclined to become known when the believer is alone. The emotional effect of being alone with these, of baring one's soul and consulting with the divine in authenticity, cannot be understated. The effect of such lonesome, secret communion is soon revealed - greater inner strength and well-being, a feeling of closeness with the Lord, and a substantial appreciation for our worldly life.
Overall, the author makes a compelling case for praying, petitioning and conversing with the Lord in solitary privacy. Without distractions, the human spirit can better express itself and mend its affinity with God, with the end result being a more authentic Christian devotion steeped in faith.
