***** Rhapsody Of Realities ***** GIVE HIM YOUR ALL. Monday, February 3rd. Pastor ANITA My son, give me thine heart, and let thine eyes observe my ways. (Proverbs 23:26). From our opening verse, its clear what the Lord wants: your heart, and for your eyes to observe His ways. He wants you to love Him and live for Him. 2 Corinthians5:15 says, And that he died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them, and rose again. Others may call you a fool for loving the Lord and serving Him with your life, but no one is ever a fool for faith. Living for the Lord is the highest calling and greatest honour! The one who walks with the Lord is positioned for glory in life: hes as a tree planted by the rivers of water; everything he does prospers (Psalm 1:3). He experiences maximum fulfilment and joy in life because his passion, emotions, desires and appetites are founded on Christ. When you give the Lord your all and trust Him with your life, Hell make your life pleasurable and worth living. If you ever wondered why David prospered in wealth and wisdom beyond measure, it was because he gave the Lord his all! He also taught his son Solomon to do the same. In 2 Samuel 24:24, he said, ...I will not offer to the LORD my God sacrifices that have cost me nothing... (GNB). What a mentality! Only the very best is good enough for God! In giving the Law to the children of Israel, God specifically warned them against bringing anything less than the best as an offering: And if there be any blemish therein, as if it be lame, or blind, or have any ill blemish, thou shalt not sacrifice it unto the Lord thy God (Deuteronomy 15:21). When you give Him the best of you, and the best of what you have, He rewards you for your action of faith and trust. CONFESSION Blessed Lord, my life is for your glory, and I live to bring you honour as I serve you with diligence, excellence, and wholehearted devotion. Youre my all, and all that I live for! Thank you for the opportunity to know and serve you, and to express your love and righteousness to the world, in Jesus Name. Amen.
