Matthew 22:37, 38-Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the first and greatest commandment.”
God’s Word says that He is to be our first love.
We hear it from the pulpit, Christian radio, conferences, missionaries.
We hear it in Sunday school and from our parents.
I saw this somewhere on the internet awhile back. (It didn’t give credit to anyone, so I apologize that I cannot do so, here, either). It is a great way to remember this principle:
F – finances
I – Interests
R – relationships
S – schedule
T – troubles
We are to give Him the pre-eminence above all others.
First in our thoughts and hearts.
We are to elevate Him in our lives to the highest place…Make Him first in our hearts, souls, minds, and strength.
“And He is the head of the body, the church, who is the beginning, the first born from the dead, that in all things He may have the preeminence.” Colossians 1:18
