September 13, 2018 DCLM Daily Manna Devotional : Topic - Putting First Things First

--> Note :- Are you born again? You are never going to win the battle against the devil if you are not born again. I plead with you to give your life to Jesus today because the longer you stay in sin and remain unsaved, the more hardened your nature becomes against the purpose and the way God wants you to be for His purpose. To give your life to Jesus now, say this prayer: “Father, I come to You in the name of Jesus. I know that I am a sinner and I cannot save myself but Jesus died for me and shed His blood that I might be saved. Today, I accept Jesus as my Lord and Saviour. Jesus, I ask You to come into my heart, be my Lord, wash me with Your blood and make me whole. I believe with my heart and confess with my mouth that Jesus is my Lord. Thank You for saving me. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.” I congratulate you and welcome you to the family of God if you have sincerely said that prayer. Now you are fit to discover, know and walk in your destiny.

Topic - Putting First Things First

Text: Haggai 1:1-15 (KJV)
Key Verse: “Thus speaketh the LORD of hosts, saying, This people say, The time is not come, the time that the LORD’S house should be built. Is it time for you, O ye, to dwell in your cieled houses, and this house lie waste?“ (Haggai 1:2,4).

MESSAGE:
One of the most challenging tasks we have in life is making choices. The problem really is not in choosing between the good and the bad. Many of us are already wise enough to know how to do this. But the challenge really is in choosing between the good and the best. This is where many people stumble and this is where we need to display the highest form of discretion.
Prophet Haggai challenged the people of Judah to set their priority right. They had the mental belief that God was first, supreme and above all. Yet this belief was not reflected in the way they were living. The house of God laid waste and unattended to, while theirs were luxurious mansions. God rebuked them for this. God’s house must be built first otherwise their labours will result in futility.
This is the same challenge the Lord is giving us today. Many of us believe that God should take the first place in our lives but practically, we are not demonstrating this. When it comes to building the house of God or giving our time, talent and resources for the service of God, we tend to consider ourselves first. Make a comparison of your personal house to the church of God; which takes your first consideration? Do you not rather consider your work, business, career, family, and so on first before you think of God and His service?
If we want the best from God, then we must give Him the first place in our lives. Many people experience inexplicable failures and loses in life because they have not truly accorded God the first place. Repent now; do the right thing and God will bless you beyond your imagination.
Thought For The Day: God will grant true blessings when we put Him first.
