When you first wake up, open your Holy Bible before checking Instagram. This simple decision sets the tone for your day. Starting with Scripture allows you to ground yourself in faith, inviting God’s wisdom and peace into your heart. It reminds us that the world may present endless distractions, but our primary focus should always be on the teachings and love of Christ. Opening the Bible first nurtures our spiritual growth and keeps us anchored in the truth amid the chaos that often accompanies our daily routines.
In a time where social media claims our attention first thing each morning, it is essential to prioritize our relationship with God. The Bible serves as a source of strength, encouragement, and guidance. By engaging with God’s word daily, we prepare ourselves to face challenges with faith, humility, and grace. Let the messages of hope and love found in Scripture infuse your spirit, empowering you to live meaningfully and purposefully throughout your day.
May we choose to cultivate our spiritual lives, placing God at the forefront of our minds and hearts. Let this habit of reading the Bible before scrolling through social media transform our mornings and, ultimately, our lives.
Prayer:
Heavenly Father, as I rise today, I am reminded of the gift of a new morning. Thank You for this opportunity to begin afresh, filled with the potential for growth and connection with You. I ask for Your guidance as I navigate the distractions of daily life, particularly the allure of social media that can easily pull my attention away from what truly matters. Instill in me a longing for Your presence that overshadows my desire to scroll through my phone as a first action.
Lord, I pray that You help me to prioritize my time with You, to open my Holy Bible before anything else. May Your words be a light to my path, illuminating my thoughts and actions with Your love and wisdom. Let me find solace and strength in Your Scriptures, and may they fill my heart with peace, encouraging me to reflect Your love in my interactions with others.
As I read Your word, I pray for understanding and insight that I might apply Your teachings to my life. Help me to draw nearer to You, cultivating a relationship that flourishes through daily communication and prayer. May my first thoughts every morning be directed toward You, allowing Your spirit to guide me throughout the day.
I humbly ask for strength to resist the noise of the world and the distractions that often vie for my focus. When temptation arises to check platforms that may pull me away from You, remind me of the peace and fulfillment that only comes from being rooted in Your word. Help me to live intentionally, shining Your light wherever I go.
Thank You for Your unending grace and love. I commit this day into Your hands. May it be filled with opportunities to grow in faith and serve others. May my heart be aligned with Your purpose, reflecting Your glory in all I do. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.
