JESUS, the TEACHER (39)

Section Five, 

JESUS

the TEACHER

31. Flying Standby 7/30 32. A Prayer Warrior            8/6 33. Focused on the Father  8/13 34. The One Who Provides 8/20 35. The Treasure Principle  8/27 36. A Marriage Counselor           9/3 37. Can One Become Two?        9/10 38. Love: Can Two Stay One?    9/17 39. The Number One Priority   9/24

The last lesson this week, from the Great Teacher, Jesus - is:
"The Number One Priority"
I would have been most certain that LOVE would have been our 'número uno'.
Although this is the last devotional in this section,
it looks like I need to sit a while longer at the feet of Jesus
to learn more about Him, His teachings & our priorities
so I finally get it right or at least closer to #1.

Scripture Readings for Week #39:

Matthew 6:25-33; Philippians 3:7-14; Mark 10:28-31; Matthew 16:24-27; Acts 28:23-31

as we read the devotional divided into these segments/subtitles:

"Ordering Our Priorities" "You Can Get What You Want" "I Must Experience a Connection with God in My Life" "I Must Establish the Control of God over My Life" "I Must Exhibit the Character of God in My Life"

These subtitles alone (or along with the scripture passages) might give us a glimpse in this
Teaching of Jesus on Priorities:
Experience - Establish - Exhibit
Connection - Control - Character
#1 God in My Life
"Let Jesus be the Center of Your Priorities"
Pretty sure that this is the reason my One Word for 2023 is JESUS!

"Lord, quicken in my heart a greater desire to seek after Your kingdom. Give me the will to desire, above all else, that Your will be done."

🙏{Continue to teach me how & what to prioritize like You, Jesus}🙏
