He will deliver you!

The three young Hebrew men were told if they do not bow before the king and worship his image, they would be thrown into a fiery furnace. They refused to bow down to the image that the king had set up, so the king had them thrown into the fiery furnace. Then, to the king’s amazement, nothing happened to them. As a matter of fact, the king saw all 3 men in the furnace walking around, with a fourth person, who looked like the Son of God! They came out without any burn marks. Their clothing didn’t suffer any damage, and they didn’t even smell like smoke.  God protected these three men. Why? It was because these three men had a profound relationship with God! They would seek God with all of their hearts on an ongoing basis. They trusted God with ALL of their hearts. Now it’s our turn. Let’s be the ones who seek God with all of our hearts. God will be with us during the good, the bad, and the ugly times. He will even deliver us from those that would try to destroy us. Greater is He that is within us!

Jeremiah 29: 12-13 “Then  you will call upon Me and go and pray to Me, and I will listen to you. And you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart”.

What is your priority?

We all have needs and wants. The priorities usually are a home, food, clothing, and good relationships. Unfortunately most chase after these things, and never pursue a relationship with God.

In Matthew 6, the Lord Jesus reminded us that God knows that we need these things, but if we were to seek His Kingdom and righteousness first, He would make sure that all of those “things” would be added to us. Instead of seeking the “things,” seek the provider. He will give you wisdom and strategies for daily provision. He will give you favor with your supervisors. He will give you grace for relationships, ie: spouse, children and family. Seek the Heavenly Father. He will clarify your path and future!

Matthew 6:31 “Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.
