A PRAYER OF CONFESSION FOR NOT PUTTING HIM FIRST

Adonai, God, Lord, Eternal One, Holy One, Judge, King of kings, Lord of lords, Creator, Most High One, please forgive me for not putting You first. I was wrong. Help me to learn to do so. Please help me develop a stronger want (desire) to do so, after all, I cannot do anything without You (John 15). Help me be far more mindful with putting You first. I realize I need to take my thoughts captive. I will repent and try to take active steps to do so.

And why do I want to put You first? Because I love You. Not just because it is commanded. I want to spend more time with You. I want to be with You in all I do. Please forgive me.

Thank You for allowing me the opportunity to change (adjust) and do things better and differently, out of love, not our of obligation. You should be first in my life, and no one and nothing else. No one else and nothing else deserves to be first in anything, never mind over and in my life.

I would like the Lord to be able to say that about me... that I am faithful and that my faithfulness grows every single day. But in order for that to happen, it does not occur accidentally or on its own. Rather, it requires intentionality (focused; purposeful; mindful). How does this happen? How can we faithful in Him? What does that look like? I just put the word 'faithful' in my Bible app and noticed that as I look at the references starting in Genesis, God's faithfulness is mentioned first and above all. So what exactly is being faithful or what is faithfulness? Are we faithful (am I)? The very first time it is mentioned in the Bible is in Genesis 32:10 and the Hebrew word is emeth, which means:...

BIBLE: A MAIN PAGE (A TABLE OF CONTENTS AND INDEX OF SORTS)

Note: I am going to use this page as a table of contents or index, which will help me find verses later, along with all of my journaling. (And I figure it might help you.
