PUTTING GOD FIRST
Mateo 6:33
1. Matthew 15:8 “These people honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me."
2. Revelation 2:4 “But I have this against you, that you have abandoned the love you had at first.”
Putting God first is realizing it’s all about Him. Everything in your life is to be directed to Him.
Your every breath is to go back to Him. Your every thoughtRead More is to be for Him. Everything is about Him. Take a look at this verse. It says do all things for His glory. Every single last thing in your life. Is every one of your thoughts for His glory? Is every time you watch TV for His glory?
How about when you walk, give, talk, sneeze, read, sleep, exercise, laugh, and shop? Sometimes we read the verse and we don’t truly see how important the verse is. It doesn’t say do some things for His glory, it says do everything. Is everything in your life for His glory?
3. 1 Corinthians 10:31 “Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God.”
Are you loving God with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength?
If you say no, then you are being disobedient to this command. If you say yes, then you are lying because no one besides Christ has ever loved the Lord with everything, which also makes you disobedient. As you can see you have a big problem and you’re not putting the Lord first.
4. Mark 12:30 “Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.”
5. Matthew 22:37 “Jesus replied: Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.”
