GOD'S WORD IN MINE HEART

Bible App @YouVersion.com

 Jeremiah 20:9 says, "But if I say, 'I will not mention his word or speak anymore in his name,' his word is in my heart like a fire, a fire shut up in my bones. I am weary of holding it in; indeed, I cannot."

This verse is a powerful reminder of the 'unyielding' nature of God's word. Jeremiah, the prophet, was faced with immense challenges and opposition. He was tempted to remain silent and withhold God's message. However, he realized that God's word was like a 'burning fire' within him, impossible to contain or suppress.

The metaphor of fire conveys the 'passion', 'urgency', and 'power' of God's message. Just as fire consumes everything in its path, God's word has the ability to transform lives and bring about change. It is a force that cannot be ignored or silenced.

Jeremiah's struggle to contain God's word reflects the tension between human frailty and divine calling. Despite his weariness and the difficulties he faced, Jeremiah recognized that he could not deny or suppress the message entrusted to him. The fire within him compelled him to speak out and proclaim God's truth.

As believers, we can draw inspiration from Jeremiah's unwavering commitment to God's word. We are called to be 'bold' and 'courageous' in sharing the message of hope, love, and redemption found in the Scriptures. Like Jeremiah, we should allow God's word to ignite a passion within us that cannot be extinguished.

Let us embrace the fire of God's word in our hearts and boldly proclaim His truth to a world in need of hope and salvation.

SERVING GOD IS KEY!

 

 Bible App @YouVersion.com

Romans 12:11 is a verse that challenges us to live with passion and purpose for God. It says, "Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord."NIV

What does it mean to be zealous and fervent in spirit? Zeal is a strong enthusiasm or devotion for something or someone. Fervor is an intense emotion or feeling that motivates us to action. To be zealous and fervent in spirit means to have a burning desire to please God and to do His will.

How can we cultivate this kind of attitude in our lives? The verse gives us three practical ways:

Serving the Lord. This means to use our gifts and abilities to honor God and to bless others. We are not to be lazy or indifferent, but to work hard and do everything as unto the Lord (Colossians 3:23). Serving the Lord also means to obey His commands and to follow His guidance. We are not to be rebellious or stubborn, but to submit to His authority and to trust His wisdom.

Being joyful in hope. This means to have a positive outlook and a confident expectation of what God has promised us. We are not to be pessimistic or discouraged, but to rejoice in the hope of His glory and His return (Romans 5:2; Titus 2:13). Being joyful in hope also means to have a grateful heart and a contented spirit. We are not to be complaining or dissatisfied, but to give thanks in all circumstances and to be content with what we have (1 Thessalonians 5:18; Hebrews 13:5).

Being patient in affliction. This means to endure hardship and suffering with perseverance and faith. We are not to be impatient or anxious, but to wait on the Lord and to rely on His strength (Isaiah 40:31; Philippians 4:13). Being patient in affliction also means to have a humble attitude and a forgiving spirit. We are not to be proud or bitter, but to humble ourselves under God’s mighty hand and to forgive those who hurt us (1 Peter 5:6; Ephesians 4:32).

These three ways of living are not easy, but they are possible by the power of the Holy Spirit who lives in us. He is the one who gives us the zeal and the fervor that we need to serve the Lord with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength (Mark 12:30). He is the one who fills us with joy and peace as we trust in Him (Romans 15:13). He is the one who helps us to endure and overcome every trial and temptation that we face (1 Corinthians 10:13).

Let us therefore pray that God would renew our zeal and fervor for Him every day. Let us ask Him to help us serve Him faithfully, joyfully, and patiently. Let us remember that He is worthy of all our love, praise, and devotion. Amen.

GOD'S SOVEREIGNTY AND WISDOM

Bible App @YouVersion.com

 This passage is emphasizing to us that God is sovereign over the nations and the rulers of this world. He can raise up and bring down kings according to his will and purpose. He can use even wicked and pagan rulers to accomplish his plan and to judge his people when they rebel against him. It also teaches us that God has a promise and a hope for his people, even in the midst of judgment and exile.

He has not forgotten his covenant with David, nor has he abandoned his plan to establish his kingdom on earth. He has sent his Son, Jesus Christ, who is the fulfillment of the prophecy in Ezekiel 21:27. He is the one whose right it is to rule over Israel and over all nations. He is the one who died for our sins and rose again from the dead. He is the one who ascended to heaven and sits at the right hand of God. He is the one who will come again in glory and power to judge the living and the dead. He is the one who will reign forever and ever.

Therefore, let us trust in God's sovereignty and wisdom, even when we face trials and troubles in this world. Let us repent of our sins and turn to him for forgiveness and grace. Let us look forward to his coming and prepare ourselves for his kingdom. Let us worship him as our King and Lord, and submit to his authority and will. Let us proclaim his gospel to all people and nations, and invite them to join us in his eternal kingdom. Amen.

ZION A LIGHT TO THE NATIONS

Bible App @YouVersion.com

These verses 13 to 15 are a turning point in the Book of Psalm, where the Psalmist shifts his focus from his own troubles to God’s promises for Zion. He declares that God will arise and have compassion on Zion, for the time to favor her has come. He says that God’s servants love Zion and care for her, even for her stones and dust. He also prophesies that God’s name and glory will be feared and revered by all the nations and kings of the earth.

They teach us several important truths about God and his people:

First, they remind us that God has a special love and concern for Zion, which is not only a physical place, but also a spiritual reality. Zion represents the people of God, the church of Christ, the heavenly Jerusalem. God has chosen Zion as his dwelling place, his holy habitation, his resting place. He has made a covenant with Zion, to bless her and protect her, to be her God and she his people. He has given Zion a glorious destiny, to be a light to the nations, a royal priesthood, a holy nation.

Second, they assure us that God has a set time to favor Zion, to fulfill his promises and purposes for her. He knows the times and seasons, he has appointed the end from the beginning. He is not slack concerning his promise, but is longsuffering towards us, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. He will not forget or forsake Zion, but will arise and have mercy on her in due time. He will restore her fortunes, rebuild her walls, beautify her gates, enlarge her borders. He will make her a praise in the earth, a joy of many generations.

Third, they encourage us to have a heart for Zion, to love her and pray for her. As God’s servants, we should take pleasure in Zion’s stones and favor her dust. We should value every part of Zion, every member of the body of Christ, every stone in the temple of God. We should have compassion on Zion’s afflictions, share in her joys and sorrows, bear one another’s burdens. We should seek Zion’s welfare, work for her peace and prosperity, support her ministry and mission.

Fourth, they inspire us to proclaim God’s name and glory to the world. As God’s witnesses, we should testify of his mighty deeds and marvelous grace in our lives and in history. We should declare his praises and attributes to all people and nations. We should invite them to fear the Lord and worship him alone. We should announce his coming kingdom and judgment to all kings and rulers. We should prepare the way for his return and reign.

Let us therefore pray with the psalmist: “You will arise and have compassion on Zion; for it is time to favor her; yes, the set time has come.” Amen.

THE LOVE OF GOD IN CHRIST JESUS

Bible App @YouVersion.com

Like Apostle Paul, every Believer ought to be convinced that nothing and absolutely nothing can separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus. There's no exception or limitation to God's love, our union with Christ is the basis and guarantee of our experience of God's love. 

Be still and remain focused on God as we can have absolute assurance and security in God's love for us in Christ. No matter what we face in this life or in the future, no matter what forces or circumstances may oppose us or challenge is, no matter what heights or depths we may encounter or explore, nothing can separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

This love is not based on our performance or feelings, but on God's grace and faithfulness. This is not dependent on our circumstances or situations, but on God's sovereignty and power. This love is not subject to change or decay, but on God's eternity and Immutability. This love is not a vague or abstract concept, but a personal and relational reality. 

Therefore, as we meditate on these verses, let us be filled with gratitude and joy for God’s amazing love for us in Christ. Let us also be filled with confidence and courage to face any challenge or difficulty with faith and hope in God’s promises and presence. Let us also be filled with love and compassion for others who need to hear and experience this good news of God’s love in Christ. And let us always remember that nothing can separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. Amen.

POSITIVE FUTURE

Bible App @YouVersion.com

We've been reassured from God in this Bible passage that despite the current hardships, He has a plan for our well-being and hopeful future. 

There's a positive future ahead for anyone who can believe, hope, trust and have faith in God, even in the face of adversity. 

Let's therefore, persevere and wait patiently for God as He works to bring us to our desired expectations.

CALL TO ME!

 

Bible App @YouVersion.com

We can call upon God for help and guidance. That is, "Call to me, and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know." This means that if someone is struggling with something or needs direction in their life, they can turn to God for answers.

As many people are facing challenges in their lives, maybe you feel hopeless, lost, or uncertain about what steps to take next! Be comforted by the fact that there is always someone who will listen and provide guidance.

All you need to do is turn to God through prayer and reflection on His words, and then the strength needed to persevere through difficult times shall be granted to you, and before time, your answers will be released to you.

However, know that you are never truly alone; there is always a higher power available for support when it's needed most, and that is Jesus Christ!

So, why not make out time today Sunday to go for a Church Service to call to your God... 

PHYSICAL AND SPIRITUAL HEALTH

 

Bible App @YouVersion.com

Folks, the Bible verse of today has reminded us that God will bring healing and health to His people, as well as peace and security.

Even in times of destruction and chaos, there is hope for restoration and renewal. This also shows us that God cares about our physical well-being, not just our spiritual health.

Therefore, for anyone who is facing difficulties or challenges in life, I want to encourage us to have faith that things will get better with time if we can trust in God's plan for us. Just wait a little while, and our redeemer, Jesus Christ, will show up to deliver your blessings to you.

Also, be reminded of God's love for his people, which includes me and you, and his ability to restore what has been lost or broken.

THE PURE WORD OF GOD

 

Bible App @YouVersion.com

Brethren, note that by our words we will either be condemned or justified. The words of the Lord are pure words. If we say we're servants of God, let's follow after Him to the full, in truth and indeed.

Malicious, boastful, deceitful, and flattering words can't form part of the pure words of God. We are already condemning ourselves when we speak or act with those words towards others. Those who speak and act on these words are known as the wicked, and no one would like to be identified as the wicked.

Even the Bible has told us how the wicked walks around everywhere, hailing what is wrong. They do so out of their restlessness because it's written that there's no peace for the wicked.

We'd rather choose to speak God's words, which are flawless, valuable, promising, protecting, and keeping safe all who will embrace them. These pure words of God are all one needs to fulfil his or her glorious destiny in Christ Jesus. 

GOD WILL ARISE FOR YOU!

 

Bible App @YouVersion.com

Folk! Hear what the Lord is saying to everyone who is experiencing any whispering campaign from persons madly jealous of him or her, or maybe slanders and evil reports have been raised against you. Or are you confronted right now with flattering lips and double-hearted people who are bragging to prevail over you with their idle and destructive tongues? Perhaps they have even let down your God by saying, 'Our lips are our own: Who's Lord over us?'

Just be consoled by God's overwhelming love for you. Call upon Him and allow Him to respond on your behalf. He can't allow His own to be defeated as long as you trust Him enough to handle the battle for you.

And for anyone indulging in this kind of ungodly attitude, it will be wise to desist, as God will surely arise and act on behalf of the victimized. God resists the proud and will always set His elect in the safety for which he or she yearns.

HIS COUNTENANCE!

 

Bible App @YouVersion.com

Further to our Tuesday' Devotion of the benefits of God's face shining on us, here are some other benefits;

Prosperity: He takes pleasure in the prosperity of His people! Psalm 35:27. This kind of prosperity does not cover only financial blessings, rather it covers a whole lot more like, divine health, career and business breakthrough, abundant provisions, fruitfulness of the body and the work of the hand and many more. 

Joy: of course, God's countenance will always bring joy overflow into one's spirit, soul and body because in His presence is fullness of joy. And, a joyful heart is good medicine Proverb 17:22, and a merry heart makes a cheerful countenance, Proverb 15:13.

Then, His countenance upon anyone will cause such individual to dwell in safety or in otherwords, keep the person perfectly safe. 

So, let's go ahead and continue to make his face shine upon us by laying aside every filthiness of sin. 

PEACE FOR THE PERFECT AND UPRIGHT!

Bible App @YouVersion.com

Folks, God does not look in the face of a sinner. No! He hates sin. A sinful man likes to do what God hates. Thereby, denying himself of the blessings that follow lovers of God. 

What are those things that God hates but man still does? "These six things doth the LORD hate: Yea, seven are an abomination unto him: A proud look, a lying tongue, And hands that shed innocent blood, An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, Feet that be swift in running to mischief,' Proverbs 6:16‭-‬18 KJV

But, God can forgive us our sins if we genuinely turn to Him in repentance, 'Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.' Isaiah 1:18 KJV

LETTING GO!

 

Bible App @YouVersion.com

Believers in God! When you follow God's leading you have to get out of your comfort zone and do what God wants you to do. Something that He wants you to do but normally wouldn't want to. 

Usually, letting go of your interests and allowing God to work in you and through you is not a simple step to take, but you must do it! You should take care of the interests you can manage and submit the ones you can't to His authority because He will only lead you to safety rather than danger. The path to take is this. It is very profitable to do so. 

God can always be reassured of our resolve by hearing these words from today's Bible reading.

PRAISE YE THE LORD!

 

Bible App @YouVersion.com

We will rejoice and be glad in it because it is another Sunday, a day the Lord has made with new opportunities and new grace for us. 

In the presence of your fellow brethren, will you choose to fellowship with God? He desires and appreciates receiving that from His saints. 

God tabernacles 24 hours a day in the Church, which is Mount Zion, to receive our adoration. It is understandable why King David could assert with confidence, "I would rather be a doorkeeper in my God's house than to dwell in the tents of wickedness."

       

See you tomorrow in Church! 

ANY GOOD THING!

Bible App @YouVersion.com

Have you noticed, people, that despite everything we've done in the past, God still loves and protects us? He first loved us and has continued to love us, which is an incredible and constant love. 

No good thing will He withhold from them that walk uprightly, thus if He couldn't keep His own begotten Son, Jesus Christ, from the cross, that proves He is truthful to His word found in "part b" of our Bible reading for today.

If we choose to walk with Him, He will surely be our sun and shield, give us grace and glory, that is, direct and protect us in addition to adorning us with His great favor and honor.

So, let's keep asking for grace to walk with Him in truth and in Spirit.

THE SECRET OF GOD

 

Bible App @YouVersion.com

Folks, the secret things belong to God. He's the sole custodian of the secret things. But  our God is a generous God, He will always reveal His secret to those who love and fear Him, just like Daniel in the Bible - 

But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the king's meat, nor with the wine which he drank: therefore he requested of the prince of the eunuchs that he might not defile himself. Daniel 1:8 

And for this reason of Daniel's love and fear for God, God's secret was revealed to him, Daniel 2:19 "Then was the secret revealed unto Daniel in a night vision. Then Daniel blessed the God of heaven."

The Bible also tells us in 1 Corinthians 2:9 "But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, Neither have entered into the heart of man, The things which God hath prepared for them that love him.

So, will you choose to love and fear God today for His secret to be revealed to you? 

Father, in the name of Jesus Christ, help me to love and fear you so your secret could be revealed to me, Amen. 

SIN IS A TRAP!

Bible App @YouVersion.com

Folks! Sin traps and holds us hostage! It all starts from our own evil desires. James Chapter One and verses 14-15 captured it this way; "but every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed. Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death."

To ensure we don't enter the trap of sin therefore, let's embrace the words of wisdom as found in Romans 12:11 which says we should work and not be lazy, fervent in spirit and serving the Lord! 

When one is busy serving the Lord and the interest of His Kingdom, the person will not have that time to enter the trap of sin. 

Father, give us grace not to enter the trap of sin anymore in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen? 

I WILL DO A NEW THING!

Bible App @ YouVersion

Folks! God has emphasized to us over and again in the Scripture not to fear. This includes our past experiences. He knows that when one continues to dwell in the past, depression and anxiety are bound to occur. 

Therefore, The Almighty God had admonished us not to remember those moments of regrets, mistakes and sadness as He's going to do a new thing which would be superior to what we've lost in the past. 

All we need is the grace of patience and rest in faith to experience the new things that God has in stock for us. 

And so, Heavenly Father engrace us to be patient and have a rest of faith as we await the manifestation of the new things you have for us, Amen. 

FOLLOW ME AND I WILL MAKE YOU!

Bible App @YouVersion.com

Jesus called out to them, “Come, follow me, and I will show you how to fish for people!” Mark 1:17 (NLT).

Folks! These were the exact words of Jesus Christ to Simon and Andrew his brother as He walked by the sea of Galilee. and the same words have been posed to us now and until Jesus Christ returns!

This Bible passage has described all that Jesus Christ wants us to do for Him - and that is, to reach out to the lost souls and bring them into God's Kingdom. This is every believer's number one assignment here on earth.

This assignment is not for a season, I hope you know! it is expected of us the believers to keep engaging in it till Jesus returns.

So, let's pray for grace to keep doing it.

THE EXPECTED END

Bible App @youVersion

Folks! God's thoughts towards us - His people- have been good and not evil. For this reason, He sent His only begotten son -  Jesus Christ, to come save us from sin, sorrow, and anguish!

When one accepts Jesus Christ the son of God into his or her life as the Lord and Saviour, the individual is taken to the expected end of longevity, divine health, divine direction, prosperity, glory, honor, riches, all-round rest - peace, blessings, and many more...

Pray this prayer of faith if you have not accepted Jesus Christ into your life - Lord Jesus, I am a sinner and I acknowledge you as my personal Lord and Saviour. Forgive me all my sins and take me to the expected end, Amen.

HEY! REMEMBER TO GO WORSHIP GOD TOMORROW SUNDAY!

Bible App @YouVersion.com

God is a Spirit and those who must worship Him, must worship Him in truth and in spirit, Chapter 4:24 of John. That said, what plans do we have tomorrow Sunday?

Don’t just form the opinion that God is everywhere or that He sees the heart! Believe me, I know that God is everywhere and also that He sees the heart. But as an individual, how do you rate God in your affairs?

Are you so busy out there that you can’t spare just a few seconds to fellowship with your God in the midst of other brethren in His house – The Church?

No! No! No! no excuse is tenable for one not to go to Church to worship your Creator - Almighty God, in truth and in spirit, so ensure to go to Church tomorrow Sunday.

ALLOW THE HOLY SPIRIT INSPIRE YOU!

Folks! The divine direction in life or for one’s ministry is found through reading the Word of God by studying and meditating on specific scriptures that speak to your circumstance. As one reads the Bible, certain passages would stand out to the person that would make the person feel a sense of conviction or inspiration.

Being open to receiving direction from the Holy Spirit while reading the Word of God, and allowing Him to speak to you through the scriptures is very important. By doing so, you can gain clarity and direction for your life and ministry.

O Lord! Give me the grace to have a genuine fellowship that brings me to a real connection with the Holy Spirit for my divine direction, in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

EARLY WILL I SEEK THEE

Bible App @YouVersion.com

Early morning hours are a crucial time for hearing from God and receiving instructions. By rising up early to praise and worship Him, we can locate His pathway to our great destiny and receive guidance on how to put things right. Worrying and anxieties rob us of access to the voice of God, so it is important to be addicted to God and His kingdom instead.

Papa Oyedepo had advised in one of his books that, the best time to listen for God's instructions is when you are in a state of quietness and stillness. This means that you need to create an atmosphere of peace and calmness around you, free from distractions and noise. He further suggests rising up early in the morning, before the hustle and bustle of the day begins, to spend time in prayer and meditation. This is a time when your mind is fresh and alert, and you are more receptive to hearing from God.

O Lord! Give me the grace to always rise early to seek and follow your instructions, all the days of my life, Amen.

JOYFULNESS IS ALSO KEY TO RECEIVING DIVINE DIRECTION

 

Divine direction is essential for success in life and ministry. It is important to seek God's guidance in every step we take, as our thoughts are not His thoughts. Knowing our assignment and following it with clarity of vision enhances supernatural speed and brings about fulfillment.

The voice of the Spirit gives definite instructions for direction, and it is important to cultivate a consistent pattern of Bible reading and prayer to maintain the sensitivity of the heart. 

Meekness, quietness, and joyfulness - Isaiah 12:3, are also prerequisites for receiving divine direction. Following divine direction leads to profitable paths of life, honor, beauty, dignity, and glory.

THE MEEK WILL GOD GUIDE AND TEACH HIS WAY

Folks, the key to receiving guidance from God is to have a meek and quiet spirit, as His thoughts are higher than ours, Isaiah 55:8. The Bible serves as a guidebook for life, providing instructions and direction. 

Developing a consistent pattern of Scripture reading and communing with the Holy Spirit can help maintain the sensitivity of the heart. The benefits of following God's direction include success, prosperity, and protection. 

Rising up early in the morning is the best time to hear from God, as He reaches out to those who are willing to listen. Many people throughout history have received major instructions from God during these early hours. 

Overall, seeking God's guidance and following His direction can transform an ordinary person into an extraordinary one.

Lord! I receive grace to seek and follow your guidance, Amen.

Thanks to #Papa #Bishop David Oyedepo, the Presiding Bishop of Living Faith Church worldwide.

GOD RESTORES OUR SOUL IF HE'S LEADING US

Folks! Having gladness in your heart and a song in your mouth when seeking divine direction is important because it helps to create an atmosphere of faith and trust in God. 

When you are joyful and singing praises, you are more open to receiving guidance from the Holy Spirit who restores one's soul. It also helps to keep your focus on God and His goodness, rather than on your problems or worries. 

As a result, you are more likely to make wise decisions that align with God's plan for your life. For example, in Psalm 32:8, God says, "I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you with my loving eye on you." 

So, when you approach God with a joyful heart and a song of praise, you position yourself to receive His instruction, guidance and restoration of your soul.

Lord Jesus, give me the grace I require to be joyful always in order for my soul to be restored, Amen. 

MY SHEPHERD

PSALMS 23:1 (KJV)

Folks, I guess you should know the meaning of shepherd! Alright, let's try to explain it - A shepherd can be described as a person who leads, guides, or directs another to a defined location or direction.

Having explained that, if we then say that the Lord is our Shepherd, it means, therefore, that the Lord is the one who leads, guides, or directs us to our defined location - in this case, our glorious destiny!

And, of course, when the Lord Jesus Christ is our Shepherd, we can be rest assured He'd lead us to rest in green pastures, that is to say, you would not struggle to make ends meet. He'd lead us to the path of success seamlessly. 

But, His leading us depends on us. The choice is ours to make as God cannot force His leading on us. It's a matter of one's choice!

Lord! Give me the grace to make that right choice of allowing you to lead me, in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

LET'S GO TO GOD'S HOUSE; THE CHURCH AND PRAISE HIM

 

PSALMS 100:3-4 (NKJV)

Folks, thank God tomorrow is Sunday! Let's seize this opportunity to be in Church tomorrow to worship this great King. 

We didn't make ourselves rather He'd made us in His image as well for His glory. 

Therefore, let's go into His courts with praise and be thankful to Him, and bless His name. He deserves it, Amen! 

GOD WILL RESTORE ALL YOU HAVE LOST TO YOU TODAY

JOEL 2:25 (NKJV) 

Folks, the God we serve is a merciful God. We can attest to this from our Bible passage today of His promise to us of going to restore to us all that we've lost in time past. 

He is the one in control of our lives and affairs. He is not a man that He'd lie. Even though the degree of what we might have lost was so weighty, He had promised to restore all to us. 

So, that's the good news for us today! Let's hold onto His word and call upon Him for our total restoration. He's able to do exceedingly more than we can imagine! 

Oh, Lord! I pray that you restore to us all we've lost in time past in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen. 

MAKE GOD FIRST

MATTHEW 6:33 (NKJV)

 Folks, when we put God first in our affairs, He defends and fights our battles for us without any input from us. The Scripture says that eyes have not seen nor any ear heard what God has in store for His lovers.

This entails laying aside everything that disrupts our focus on God and the interest of His kingdom. Giving God our best in kingdom stewardship! Afterall, He is the one in control of the whole world. So, when He says do for Him first, we should know that our obedience to that command is absolutely for our profiting, change of story and supernatural breakthroughs! 

And so, we pray God to help us with an attitude of selflessness and resilient in seeking Him first.
