Who comes first in your life? Who is the driving force behind everything you do? As a Christian, the answer should be God. What's important to Him should be what's important to us. We are His children so we must align our priorities with His. Throughout the old testament, the Isrealites were punished because they didn't align themselves with God. They rejected His word and rejected Him. They put themselves first. In Amos 3:3, the Lord says "Can two walk together except they be agreed?" If you aren't walking in the light of God's word then you are disagreeable to God. When we focus on what God wants us to focus on, everything else will fall into place. We won't question whether we're going to worship services or not. We won't lack in our Bible study. We won't treat people meanly or dishonestly. We will prioritize our life to put God and His will first.
For part two of this post I want to talk about some of the areas that are God's priorities so we know what we should be focused on.
Stay tuned!
