Prioritize God In all things
“And Joshua said unto the people, Sanctify yourselves: for to morrow the LORD will do wonders among you. And Joshua spake unto the priests, saying, Take up the ark of the covenant, and pass over before the people. And they took up the ark of the covenant, and went before the people. And the LORD said unto Joshua, This day will I begin to magnify thee in the sight of all Israel, that they may know that, as I was with Moses, so I will be with thee. And thou shalt command the priests that bear the ark of the covenant, saying, When ye are come to the brink of the water of Jordan, ye shall stand still in Jordan.” Joshua 3:5-8 KJV https://bible.com/bible/1/jos.3.6-8.kjv

God tells us in the Bible to draw near to him and he will draw near to us. God is willing to come into a partnership when we draw near to him. In addition, when we honor God in front of the people, he will honor us in front of the people. In the Bible reading today, Joshua invited Israel to see the glory of God as he carried them across the Jordan. He asked the priests to take their place and then God acknowledged Joshua telling him that he will magnify him in the presence of the people. Do your part and accord God the honor that he is worthy of in the eyes of the people and see him accord you honor that you are unworthy of. Jesus says that if he be lifted up from the earth he will draw men unto him. Are you looking for the gift of people? Are you looking for honor? Then put God first. Prioritize his honor and he will come through for you beyond your imaginations. Be reminded that the Bible tells us that eyes have not seen, nor ears heard, nor the mind able to comprehend that which God has in stock for those who love him. Love him. Honor him. It’s a win-win decision.
Prayer: Dear Lord, thank you because you are the majestic God who rules in the heavens and earth. I come before you in total surrender. I acknowledge you before all that you are my source and essence. Please glorify yourself in me and through me in Jesus name 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾.
