FIRST THING’S FIRST
Every time we give God the first place in something, for example, coming to the temple to start the week, then He will bless the rest.
King Ezekiel was only 25 years old when he began to reign but he decided to do first what’s most important, and his name went down in history because of that.
Hezekiah did the following in the first month, and in the first year:
1. He reopened the doors of the temple.
2. Repaired the doors. I imagine he also repaired what he needed in the temple. He purified the temple, took out the garbage, etc.
3. He opened the house of God for people to come to worship, sing, pray, live together, etc.
His reign was blessed because at first he did what was important, First things first.
Think about it:
How is the order of priorities in your spiritual, family, social and financial life?
What place does God have in your life?
What important area should you put first again in your life?
