Who is more important to me, God or the person that I love? The answer should always be God. What is the greatest commandment of all?
Matthew 22:36-40
36 “Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?”
37 Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. 38 This is the first and greatest commandment.39 And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself. 40 All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.”
When we are loving the person we are with more then God are we then breaking the greatest commandment of all? It is stated right here in Matthew. The more we love God the more we will be able to love the one we are with, love our kids, love those around us, because we are no longer putting our trust in the person, but the One True God. He is the one that will be walking with us, He is the one that chose us, isn't it time we chose Him first. He never leaves us nor forsakes us, He is always here and are we putting Him first?
Yes, if you have already gone down this path and found that you are loving the one you are with more then God, you must confess your sins, you must confess it one to another and then turn from your sins, you are not to just confess it and keep doing what you confessed, but turn from your ways and allow God to become king of your life.
When we put the one we are with first, we allow fleshly desires to come in and block what God wants to show us. Step back and look at your relationship, it is never to late to put God first. He is the reason we want purity. Isn't it time we allow Him to be #1?
Have a wonderful day.
