are you making God a priority?

SCRIPTURES
do not love and be distracted by the world and the things in it - 1 john 2:15-17 (NKJV)
Jesus shows us how to respond to the distractions of the love of the world - luke 4:1-12 (NKJV)
absent of being planted at the feet of Jesus, we can bear no fruit + God wants you to have the desires of your hear - john 15:4-8 (NKJV)
beware of the distraction of religiosity - luke 10:38-42 (NKJV)
seek first God's kingdom - matthew 6:33 (NKJV)

    I think one of the things that stops us from making tiny steps towards God is the realization that there is an overwhelming amount of sinful things within us that we must let go of. I just want to leave this comment here to encourage us all to JUST START. Take one step at a time and do not allow the devil to whisper to you that what you are doing is not enough. It will become enough because when you master and let go off one sin, you can proceed to weeding out another…then another and another until God becomes our priority and our fear of him is more than our need to be apart of this world. Our love for God will become more than our love for this world and the things within. I was moved to ecclesiastes chapter 5 last night when I asked God to speak to me. Maybe it will help someone else. Pray and ask for Gods guidance DAILY. He is real.

    You hit the nail on the head!!! I'm fairly new to Christianity (almost 3 weeks now) and I absolutely am overwhelmed by all the sinful things I have around me N within me!! I KNOW that the first thing I need to do is burn my tarot cards/books, astrology books N throw out my crystals N everything else that is of the occult!! But I have been struggling to fight the urge to sell them bekuz I could get a lot of money for everything I own. I am not worried about losing the money I spent I'm more concerned with making money. 😔 I pray for God's strength to help me to let go of that want N to make the decision to burn those things N allow Jesus into my heart even more!! I also know that I need to be delivered since I unknowingly allowed these spirits to come into my home N my body. My excuse is "I'm too busy!" I work 2 jobs with 3 kids my youngest is turning 2 on Saturday. But those reasons should be Why I remove those sinful things!! I say all that to ask for prayers!!! 🙏🏼 I do tho, make time to Bible Study at least 4x a week!! I haven't gotten very far in The Gospel of John but I'm trying to understand everything N receive as much as possible!! 🤍

    You're helped of the Lord. He will never leave nor forsake. You are the temple of the Most High God. You are in daughter, his very image. He will not give up on you because He is love and love berger stops loving. Keep going. Whatever happens, get up and run to your Daddy. With Jesus there's no need for a timeout. Get back in the word, prayer and worship. It is His presence that changes you, not your willpower. Stay with Him.

As I struggle to buy groceries and as I struggle to pay rent Lord give me courage to hold my head up because it’s hard on me Lord Jesus. Amen

    I really love how you used the story of Mary and Martha to explain religiosity, This video was a blessing to me because I was actually struggling with the thought of comparison where I would see other people reading the whole bible in one year and all, but while listening I realized that most times when you prioritize the works/service to God more than spending time with him you can get frustrated as it is not fulfilling and you won't allow the Holy spirit to bear his fruit in you

    Hello Aliyah, thank you for this anointed teaching! It's a good thing God is absolutely faithful to us. The Creator giving His undivided attention to His creation. Otherwise, He might forget to wake us up, or keep us in our right mind, or a reasonable portion of health, etc. Imagine God treating us like we frequently do to Him. God help us (pun intended)! Make communing with God your lifestyle because it's that important! God bless you Aliyah and thank you again 😊
