Do you have a tent of meeting like Moses did? Exodus 33 tells us that he had a tent to which he would go and meet with the Lord. The people knew when he was going out there and they would all stand at their own tent doors and watch until he entered the tent of meeting. In that place Moses was alone with God and the people knew it. They knew that they could trust him because they knew that his leadership came from having spent time with God and hearing from him.
I am craving a tent of meeting and I think I need to let people know when I'll be there and what God is saying to me in that tent. I need more time alone with God. I spend time hiking and praying but the reality is that I also talk on the phone when I hike, I allow that time to be interrupted. It is often rich and God speaks to me there but not as rich as it ought to be, certainly not as rich as God wants it be.
I have a kneeling bench in my house that is supposed to be my tent of meeting. Have you ever bought exercise equipment like a treadmill. stationary bike, bowflex or some other multi-purpose device? Did you or do you use it much or does it collect dust or do you hang clothes on it? The kneeling bench collects dust and good intentions primarily but it's time to start using it and develop some spiritual muscle. Where is your tent of meeting?
