Here are some verses the Lord has spoken to me through recently, from the book of Amos, chapter 5. Would like to share them with you guys.
4 This is what the LORD says to the house of Israel: "Seek me and live;
5 do not seek Bethel, do not go to Gilgal, do not journey to Beersheba. For Gilgal will surely go into exile, and Bethel will be reduced to nothing."
6 Seek the LORD and live, or he will sweep through the house of Joseph like a fire; it will devour, and Bethel will have no one to quench it.
14 Seek good, not evil, that you may live. Then the LORD God Almighty will be with you, just as you say he is.
We need to move beyond just 'doing' Quiet Time, or just 'reading' the Bible, if that has been the case for us. We need to 'seek the Lord', and one way to do this would be to spend quality time talking to Him in prayer. We also need to 'seek to do what is good' all the time. Amen? =)
