Put God First In Your Life

The provided text consists of excerpts from a sermon titled “Put God First,” written by Dr. Bobby Allen, which focuses on the central theme of prioritizing God above all worldly concerns. The sermon uses Matthew 6:33 as its foundational scripture, asserting that seeking God's kingdom first ensures that all other necessary things will be provided. Allen argues that putting God first is not just about establishing priorities but about proper positioning and aligning one's plans with God's will, which is evidenced by giving Him one's first fruits, thoughts, and love. Furthermore, the text suggests that this realignment leads to positive life changes, including increased peace and clarified purpose, citing figures like Abraham and Daniel as examples of obedience. Finally, the sermon stresses that there is a blessing attached to giving God the "first things," particularly in finances and family life, by referencing the promise of provision found in Malachi 3:10.
