Number 1: God

Matthew 6:24

No man is able to be a servant to two masters: for he will have hate for the one and love for the other or he will keep to one and have no respect for the other. You may not be servants of God and of wealth

 

Bible Reading for A Year:[bible]Isaia49-50[/bible];[bible]Hosea6[/bible];[bible]0John6-9[/bible]

In the book entitled Lady in Waiting written by Jackie Kendall and Debby Jones, there is statement such as: “there is a man who loves you and wants to marry you. Then, he says that he will always be for you, looking after you, and make you as his only spouse for 364 days in year. However, there is a day in a year whereas he will give his time, minds, and his concerns to another woman. It’s just a day. Do you agree about his asking to be your future husband? “Anyone who reads that statement will be saying: No. As when we always want to have a whole time, mind, thought, strength or anything from our spouse. We never give him to other women.

If man wants to be placed at the highest place, it also happens to God. Maybe our body is in church indeed; however our thoughts are in somewhere place outside. Or when we are glorifying and worshipping God, is there any of you enjoying its circumstance heartily? In the process of running your business, building the relationship in family, or nurturing children, has God already been in the highest place or are we satisfy when we have achieved our goals?

The Bible says, “Whatever you do, do your work heartily, as for the Lord rather than for men [bible]Colos3:23[/bible]. It means, all of our minds, souls, and thoughts must be given to God. Many works that we do as man, however, Christ must be the ultimate occupant in our every aspects of life.

If you put God in the highest place, the other will be in the right place.
