Love God Greatly - Psalm 119Sample

We were created for worship. When believers are not diligent about worshipping God, we will worship something or someone else. Whether it is a person, our career, our position/status, or material possessions, if our hearts aren’t guarded and inclined towards God, those other things become exalted in our life. Only when we surrender that person or thing to the Lord, can He then take His rightful place in our heart.

What are you pursuing right now? What has your attention? Have you begun to exalt yourself and your desires above God? Will you ask God daily to realign your heart with His?

Father God, fill me with a hunger and thirst for You and Your Word. Remove anything that distracts my focus and attention away from You. Reshape and refocus my dreams, my plans, and my desires so that they align with Yours. When I resist, root in me Your promise that Your thoughts and ways are higher than my own, and Your desire for me is more than I could ever dream or imagine. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
