God Should Be Our Top Priority!

Priority: something given special attention.

God is concerned about everything that concern us - without exception. He cares about the decisions we make, because if we don’t make the right ones, He already knows what the end result can be. He wants to led and guide us as we make all of our decisions, instead of us trying to make them on our own. After all - He knows what’s best for us. If God didn’t love us, He wouldn’t care about the decisions we make, but the fact is, He does love us. The bible tells us, “I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go: I will guide thee with mine eye” (Psalms 32:8). The thing is - He can’t perform His word if we don’t go to Him first.

Putting God first is realizing it’s all about Him - that means EVERYTHING! It's also realizing that we couldn’t bat our eye or wiggle our toes if He didn’t allow it. Think about it - we're doing God a great injustice when we seek out everybody else first when we have a problem to face or a decision to make. What's worse - when things don’t work out in our favor - that's when we come back to Him. How would YOU feel watching or experiencing your child doing the same thing to you?

Let me share an example with you: Joshua sent men from Jericho to Ai, to view the country. They returned to Joshua and said unto him, let not all the people go up; but let about two or three thousand men go up and smite Ai. They went up thirty-six of the men were killed and the rest of them ran for their life. The word says the hearts of the people melted, and became as water. It was then they cried out to God (Joshua 7:2-6). If they had gone to the Lord first, perhaps, they would have known that sin was in the camp. That's just as example, but honestly, we don't really have to go far that back; we can simply look at our own lives and see that we're just as guilty.

Always keep in mind: “But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and His righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you” (Matthew 6:33).

With all that said, let the Church say Amen… and AMEN!
