Shalom, Today I want to share the devotional from our Spoken Word Church website (thespokenwordchurch.org). This simple lesson is quite vital to success, in natural things AND in the things of God!
Order is the accurate arrangement of things. Develop a passion for it. You do not park your car in your bedroom. You do not sleep on your kitchen table. You hang your clothes in your closet. You brush your teeth at the bathroom sink. Order is doing the right thing, at the right time, in the right place.
Order increases productivity. Your productivity increases your contribution. Your contribution increases the rewards you receive in life.
"And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day." (Genesis 1:31)
"Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them. 2 And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made." (Genesis 2:1-2)
This may SEEM to be a small matter, but as you can see in the Scripture references, our God IS a God of ORDER! If we are not organized in the natural things of our lives, it will be very difficult to operate in any type of order where the Word of God is concerned! Hit and miss will not cut it when we are believing for our healing, prosperity, godly family situations or any other of the many situations and circumstances that we deal with in life. Desiring a job promotion? How well do you perform the duties you currently are responsible for? Desiring a new home? How well have you taken care of the one you presently have? I know that some people seem to have a natural gift for order, but God is no respecter of people and WILL give you the help you need to succeed, IF you set about doing it! AMEN! Let's take account of our lives and see where we might improve in this area. I guarantee that doing so will not only give us a fresh perspective and outlook, but it will increase our capacity to step into new and better situations! Here is Hillsong with "Like Incense-Sometimes By Step":
This site is dedicated to the Truth. The Bible says:
John 17:17 (Amplified Bible)Sanctify them [purify, consecrate them for Yourself, make them holy] by Truth; Your Word is Truth. For the believer in Jesus Christ, knowing God's Word, the Truth, is vital for living the victorious Christian life.
John 8:31-32 (Amplified Bible)31 So Jesus said to those Jews who had believed in Him, If you abide in My word [hold fast to My teachings and live in accordance with them], you are truly My disciples.32 And you will know the Truth, and the Truth will set you free. The goal here is to provide nuggets of Truth to help you add layer upon layer to your knowledge of God's Word so you can be set free and stay free. Shalom in His love!
