Make God your first priority.
Matthew 22:37-38, NKJV “Jesus said to him, Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the first and greatest commandment.”
Make your spouse your second priority.
Matthew 22:39, NKJV “And the second is like it: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.”
When you don’t keep your priorities right, you bring self-imposed jealousy, insecurity and instability into your life.
Exodus 20:4-6, NKJV “You shall not make for yourself a carved image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth; you shall not bow down to them nor serve them. For I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God…”
The Challenge
- God makes it clear; no one is to come before Him. He is to be your Number 1. Are you placing anything before God?
- Are you placing anything before your spouse?
