What should have priority in your day, are their things that can wait?

There are things that need to take priority in our day. There are other things that can wait for another time.

Our priority is always God first. When we awaken in the morning Jesus should be foremost on our mind. So talk to Him, we call that prayer.

If you think you don't have time to sit and read God's word, make the time.

My most holy place was the bathroom when my kids were growing up. I had scriptures everywhere. On the mirror, on the walls, bibles close by.

We choose to make time for our spiritual food. We need the fresh baked bread of life daily. Just as we make time to have our natural food, we make time for our spiritual food. Now we are ready to face our day with the strength we need.

Psalm 90:12
So teach us to number our days, That we might gain a heart of wisdom.

Wisdom is seeing things as God sees them.

Psalm 90: 16-17
Let Your work appear to Your servants, And Your glory to their children.
and let the beauty of the Lord our God  be a upon us; Yes, establish the works of our hands.
Proverbs 24 27
Prepare your outside work, Make it fit for yourself in the field: afterward build your house.

As you can see God has an order He wants us to follow. Prepare your work area first, (a list helps) then take care of the other things.

God knows that we have things that must be done in our day, He asks to be a part of them. No matter what they are, He can give us new wisdom to get organized and get things done. Jesus and you working together.

Don't put off a chore that you feel you can handle later, especially if it is needed to be done today.

Don't procrastinate, don't put off what has to be done. Be diligent in your chores.

Make yourself  a list, prioritize certain things and get them done, then add the other things that are less important.

Relax in the presence of the Lord and ask Him, what are we going to do today, that you and I can and should handle?

This works for me, sometimes someone will call or come to the house and the other things will wait. But earlier I have already done those things that are priority.

This makes life much easier, and takes a lot of stress off of you. People should always come before things. We never know who might not be here tomorrow.

Is God telling you to spend time with a loved one? That is priority. The house or yard or garage can wait. Jesus loves people, they are His priority.

I love that old song, "using things and loving people." Never love things and use people, that is out of order. Keep on keeping on, and know what is to come first in your day, JESUS, and those He loves.

God Bless your day
Jesus loves you

Love in Jesus
Joy

DOES IT MATTER WHO PREACHES THE GOSPEL, AS LONG AS THE GOSPEL IS PREACHED?

 G O S P E L= GOD'S OWN SON PROVIDED ETERNAL LIFE. This is the true gospel,  the good news!! What are we to conclude about this matter? Paul makes it clear, that whoever preaches Christ and the gospel, it doesn't matter, as long as the Gospel gets preached. Philippians 1:15-16 Some indeed preach Christ even from envy and strife, and some also from goodwill.  The former preach Christ from selfish ambition, not sincerely, supposing to add affliction to my chains, but the latter out of love, knowing that I am appointed for the defense of the Gospel. What then? Only that in everyway, whether in pretense or in truth, Christ is preached; and in this I rejoice, yes and will rejoice. Beloved, there are all kinds of preachers out there, but their motives are not our business. Those that are preaching for all the wrong reasons, could later repent, and start preaching for the right reasons.  We have seen this through the years. We are to listen for the truth of God's word. I h...

SCIENCE AND THE BIBLE.

Science proves that God's word has it right for sustaining our life. Science says, that we need   four basic elements to sustain life and survive. We need air, water, food, and light. We have it all in Jesus, if we have received Him as our Lord. Science is right. It has proven God's word is true. Acts 17:25 (Paul was speaking about the Unknown God to the men in Athens) Nor is He worshipped with men's hands, as though He needed anything, Since He gives to all life, breath, and all things. We need air in order to breathe. When we receive Jesus we have His breath, breathing through our lungs. When we breathe, we speak the name of God. Just speaking His name, we inhale YAH and exhale WEH.   YHWH means breath of life. Our Jewish brothers and sisters know the name of God means breath of God. This is an interesting fact that we believers need to know. We also need light. John 8:12 Then Jesus spoke to them again, "I am the light of the world; He who follows Me shall not walk...

JESUS IS NOT A GLORIFIED BUTLER, HE IS THE SON OF GOD.

SOME BELIEVERS THINK THAT JESUS IS A GLORIFIED BUTLER.  Whatever they ask for they will have, whether it is right or wrong. JESUS IS THE SON OF GOD!!  YOU ARE NOT TO COMMAND HIM,  YOU ARE TO ASK HIM, HONOR HIM, AND RESPECT HIM AND HAVE A RELATIONSHIP WITH HIM.  I have heard some believers young in their faith and understanding, say that they have prayed for such a thing and God will give it to them. They are trusting in their faith, not their faith in God. (Works of the flesh, which is witchcraft) Witchcraft is attempting to manipulate your environment or circumstances. (SELF) Works of the flesh. Rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry. (1Samuel 15:23) Galatians 5;19-20 NOW THE WORKS OF THE FLESH ARE EVIDENT, WHICH ARE: Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions , jealousies, outburst of wrath , selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, envy, murders, drunkenness, and revelries, ...
