| In The Morning Start The Day Right With Jesus |
For spiritual growth, a Christian must feed upon the Word of God.
Many Christians do not have the time to sit and read the Holy Bible in the
morning. Life is very rushed but a wise Christian makes time at least to
pray. It is pertinent to start the day off right.
Many people leave the house without even eating breakfast, but every
Christian should at least read one verse in the bible so that they can
meditate upon it, as they drive to work. Some Christians read a daily
devotional in the morning, while they eat their breakfast. A wise man
partakes of food for his soul, as well as for his stomach. He gets alone
in the presence of Christ-- and meditates upon God's Word, which is
sufficient for the morning hours and for refreshing throughout the day.
Make time to spend with God. The Lord loves you!
"O LORD; in the morning will I direct my prayer unto thee, and will look
up." the Psalmist declared (Psalm 5:3). "Open thy mouth wide, and I will
fill it," the Lord answers in Psalm 81:10.
So let us be faithful in turning to God in the morning, to utter praise and
thanksgiving, to bring to Him the petitions of the day, and to be filled
overflowing, in His Word.
Begin thy day with God:
He is thy sun and day
His is the radiance of thy dawn,
To Him address thy praise.
Take thy first meal with God,
His Word, thy spiritual food;
Direct to Him thine every care
For this we know God answers prayer
Thy first transaction be
With God Himself above;
So shall thy business prosper well,
Thy heart be filled with His love.
