Numbers 24 & 25 - Priority

I have had my focus on other things lately. Grad school, my summer school work and my new business.

I have not had my focus on God.

God has really blessed me with my new business venture but I have let it take priority over many things in my life. I have put my first focus each day on my business and not God.

Today I am changing all of that. From now on the first thing I will do each morning is be in His word. Everything else will take care of itself when I put God first.

I feel ashamed of what I have let happen but I know that God still loves me and forgives me. He still has plans to use me for his good.

Though I may not of sinned like the people in Numbers 24 and 25 my sin is just as equal. Anytime we take our eyes off of Him we open up the opportunity for Satan to get a foothold. Satan is crafty and loves to make us believe that things are exciting and wonderful when in all reality they are distracting us for our Lord and Savior.

Lord I thank you today for all that you have given me. I thank you for all of the wonderful success you have blessed me with. I pray for forgiveness for putting you second or third. I pray that you will have mercy on me and help guide me in the ways YOU would have me to go. Lord use me through new opportunities to share about you and your greatness. May you be glorified in EVERYTHING I do each day. Lord I thank you that each day is a new day and that you are a God that loves me and forgives me each day. -Amen
