Bible Verse of The Day – 5-28-24

Mark 12:30 (NKJV) 30 And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.’ This is the first commandment.

If we love God with all of our heart we will truly prosper in this life.

Loving God with all our heart will cause us to live righteously. And that, my friend, is what a “Christian Walk” is all about. Our walk with Christ is an example to others.

As I ponder today on the beautiful verse above, I realize that loving the Lord God with all our heart is a place we will grow into if we truly go after Him with every ounce of our being!

In doing so, we must want to invest our life in Him. We must let go of some things that stand tall in our hearts, and He must be the tallest, towering above everything else.

Why does this have to be?

Why can’t we have other things that we love and cherish? We absolutely can have those things that we love and cherish if they remain in their proper place.

If we have things in our life that we put before God, they are the things we must focus on putting in their proper place.

It takes time to realize this, and time for the adjustment, but we must start somewhere.

Now, the result of making these very hard adjustments is that we will begin to see our life change. A little at a time we will begin to make God-led, righteous choices.

Why?

Because we reach a point where what matters to Him means more than what matters to us.

And because we want what He wants, we will ask Him more and more for His answers, and He will show us great and mighty things as we rely on Him! Amen.

Jeremiah 33:3 (NKJV) 3 ‘Call to Me, and I will answer you, and show you great and mighty things, which you do not know.’
