LOVING GOD SUPREMELY
Scripture: Matthew 10:34- 39
Devotional:- "He who loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me. And he who loves son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me" (v.3) NKJV
Living in love demand that we take good care of people around us. That is a great one. But the word of God introducing to us in the scripture we read today a new dimension of love which is to love God supremely. This is by loving God above all other persons.
To love God
supremely is to choose to do His will when there is a clash of interest between
loving people and God. It means we have to choose to love God above all other
persons. In loving God supremely, we have chosen to love man the way God wants
us to love people. In other word the love of God become a pattern for our love
life. We refuse to love the way the world teaches us to love. The word of God
teaches us to be kind, forgive, endure etc (1 Corinthians 13:4-7).
Many people
live in the bondage of people's opinion. But we must live in God’s opinion.
This is the reason you don't allow anyone to come between you and God. You must
ask for the wisdom of God to handle this when it is between God and your
parents or spouse, your boss or senior ones. You must learn to love God above
all. A woman may have parents, but she should know that she must submit to her
husband above them to keep her home (Ephesians 5:22-24). So also we must obey
Jesus to keep our lives with God. Peace.
Prayer:- Lord,
give me the wisdom and courage to make you first
“Whatever is
first is the god”
