I don't know why that's not working, but I'm doing this:

(setq org-agenda-files '("~/org/"))

And it works out fine. It will pick up all files under that directory
that match `org-agenda-file-regexp', which defaults as everything ending
in ".org". You might try that with "/home/user/important-directory/"?

FWIW, I don't even have a `find-lisp-find-files' function in my
installation (GNU Emacs 24.3.1).

HTH,
