Message:
In our fast-paced world, it is easy to become overwhelmed by distractions and challenges that pull our focus away from what truly matters. The message is simple yet profound: put God first. When we prioritize our relationship with Him, everything else falls into place. By dedicating our time, thoughts, and actions to God, we open ourselves to His guidance and blessings. This not only brings us peace but aligns our lives with His purpose for us. In moments of uncertainty and struggle, returning to this truth can ground us and remind us that we are never alone. The act of putting God first transforms our perspective, allowing us to face life’s hurdles with faith and assurance.
Prayer:
Dear Heavenly Father, I come before you in humble recognition of your greatness and love. You are the source of all that is good, and I acknowledge that my life is enriched when I place you at the center of my heart and mind. In this chaotic world, it is so easy to be distracted by worries, obligations, and the incessant demands of daily life. Yet, I know that when I seek you first, everything else falls into its rightful place. Help me, Lord, to remember to turn to you in all things—big or small. May my decisions be rooted in prayer, and may my heart be open to your leading.
Lord, I ask for strength to resist the temptations that pull my focus away from you. Equip me with discernment to prioritize my time, my relationships, and my resources in a way that honors you. When I feel overwhelmed, remind me to pause, reflect, and seek your presence in prayer. I desire to deepen my relationship with you, to understand your will for my life, and to walk in alignment with your purpose. Release any fear or doubt that may hinder my faith.
As I commit to putting you first, I trust that you will guide my path and provide for my needs. Help me to be a light to others, reflecting your love and grace in my actions and words. May I inspire those around me to also seek you wholeheartedly. I thank you for your unfailing love and mercy. May my life continually be a testimony of your faithfulness. In Jesus’ name, I pray, amen.
Jackie
