You most likely have heard of the website and program “I Am Second”. It is an incredible series of short videos of people sharing how God is first in their lives, and they are second. Check it out.
You also might remember the logo or slogan that was also our church theme for 2022. It was HE>i literally about the fact that God is greater than I am.
We need to live those out. Just like I shared yesterday. Put God first. Make Him the priority of your life. Seek God.
Let’s go through this SECOND stuff for a bit today.
John 3:30 NLT
He must become greater and greater, and I must become less and less.
Make sure God is becoming greater, more important in your life.
1 Peter 5:6 NLT
So humble yourselves under the mighty power of God, and at the right time he will lift you up in honor.
Stay humble. Let God lead and be lifted up.
John 12:32 NLT
And when I am lifted up from the earth, I will draw everyone to myself.”
When we exalt Jesus, lift up Jesus, make much of Jesus, He will draw people to Himself. That puts Him first and other things second.
May we be people who choose to be second so that God gets His proper place. This happens in our families, in our work, in our thoughts, in our planning … you get it. Second place is not a demotion. It is the right spot right behind God.
When God is in His proper place in our lives, things just go right.
Please pray for the outreach we are leading called back2school. Tonight is the last opportunity to register students at each location. May we lift God, make much of God and give Him first place in this and everything.
Have a great day and choose second spot so that God is first!
Psalm 96:4 NLT
Great is the Lord! He is most worthy of praise! He is to be feared above all gods.
