Misplacement of priorities
This has cost so.many believers their place on God.
How do you rate God when it comes to importance and priorities?
Its easy to say He's number one in your life but is that really the position He's occupying right now??
Many of us started our christian walk so well, placing everything in the right order. But right now, we can barely put everything under control as usual. Like majority of us would say, I don't have time! I have a lot to do! I just cant help it! I have a flight to catch up with! I am too tired and stressed up! I have tests and exams to write! I have a conference to attend...bla bla bla .
When there's no more time to study the Bible as usual, when there's no more time to pray n commune with the spirit, when there's no more time to seek His counsel before taking a major step in your business or career, when the usual schedule for quiet time and intimacy with His Spirit has been swallowed up with so many activities; *that's when things have begun to fall apart.*
This is because the jealousy of God was designed in such a way that you can't seek Him and find Him until He becomes your priority(no1).
You need to love God more than ministry, career, business etc.
David loved God. Remember He's the man after Gods heart.
Or some of us would say- I don't feel like praying right now... I don't feel like studying the Bible...and the likes.
Feelings change like weather.
Your committment to God should not be based on feelings. We walk and live by faith and obedience to Gods word and Spirit not feelings. This is because I don't always feel like praying/ studying or fellowshipping.
Make God your priority
Jer29;13
