The greatest need for everyone is relationships. (Mark 12:30-31, NKJV)
Relationship with God.
Relationship with your mate.
Relationship with your kids.
Relationship with friends/staff.
- When we get these out of order, we have disorder.
- The #1 most important need in your life is your relationship with God.
- When your relationship with God is right, it helps gets through all other relationships and it will produce the fruit of the spirit which will get you through the rest of your life. (Galatians 5:22-23, NKJV)
- Relationships are more important than riches.
- Relationships are more important than rules or school.
- Relationships are more important than reputation.
- Relationships are more important than recreation.
- Relationships are more important than ambitions, politics, and even ministry.
Relationships are built on:
Trust, respect, security, love, communication, honesty, loyalty, and respect.
The #1 thing a man needs from his mate is respect.
The #1 thing a woman needs from her mate is love and security. (Ephesians 5:33, NKJV)
How you can have your greatest need met.
Get your love and security from God and then your mate.
Give your mate love, respect, and security. (1 John 4:7-8, NKJV)
The most important thing in life. (Matthew 6:33-34, NKJV)
Most people think you find the most important thing in life by hanging on to it, but the truth is we find and keep the most important things in life by giving them away. (Luke 6:38, NKJV; Matthew 19:29-30, NKJV; Luke 17:33, NKJV)
You can’t out give God.
You can’t out give your mate.
