MAKE GOD YOUR FIRST PRIORITY (2)

TIMES OF REFRESHING ONLINE DAILY DEVOTIONAL www.thefountspring.org

DATE: FRIDAY, 12 MAY 2023

So, beloved, when you make God the priority of your life, He will increase your joy (Hebrew 1:9) and establish you in abundance (Genesis 17:2). God will give you oil of joy instead of mourning (Isaiah 61:3) and fills you with joy in His presence (Psalm 16:11). Yes, it’s true, for He has promised, and He will fulfill it. He said in Psalm 45:7,

SCRIPTURE: You have loved righteousness and hated wickedness; therefore God, your God, has anointed you above your companions with the oil of joy. (Psalm 45:7 BSB)

REFRESHING FOR THE DAY: So, as we make God the priority of our lives, and continue to live in Christ; we must also make it our goal to have a deep, intimate relationship with God. Let Him into every area of our lives. And when we genuinely continue to do this, the Bible says, His joy will be in us and our joy maybe complete (John 15:11). Stay Refreshed!

NOTE THIS: As we live to please God and put Him first in our lives, He promises to bless our lives and make us prosper.

RESPONSIBILITY: So, beloved, intentionally continue to seek to put God first in all you do in life.

PRAYER: O God, I come to You, increase my joy and cause me to prosper even as I put You first in my life, in Jesus’ name, Amen!

PROPHETIC WORD: As you continue to seek the face of God, and making Him the priority in your life, may His joy be complete in your life, in the name of Jesus’ Amen!

BIBLE TEXTS: Psalm 45:7, John 15:11, Hebrew 1:9, Genesis 17:2
