7 reasons why you should make God your priority
There are so many demands on our time and attention: our jobs, our children, our marriages, our hobbies, life’s and distractions.
And we must be careful not to let them overshadow or take precedence over our relationship with God. We will have no other gods before Him, according to the first of the Ten Commandments (see Exodus 20:3).You shall not make for yourself an idol of any kind, or an image of anything in the sky, on the earth, or in the sea, according to Deuteronomy 5:8-9.
You must not worship or bow down to them, for I, the Lord your God, am a vengeful God who will not tolerate your worship of other gods (NLT). It is important that in this race of life at the center of it all should be Jesus Christ the one true son of God . Life inherently is mysterious and as such you will need Gods special assistance and guidance and so here are:7 reasons why you should make God your priority

Never boast in yourself. It is important you understand that nothing you have or nothing you are is off your power. it is only Gods privilege over your life, and when you start to get carried away and begin to think it is all your making, there are certain trials God puts along your way to deflate our ego sort off so you don’t self destruct, so you come to the realization that he alone is God and you should come back home remember what it says in Proverbs 14 vs 12
3. He is the prince of peace ( Isaiah 9 vs 6)
if you desire divine peace over your life and affairs, you only need to draw closer and make God the priority. If you desire peace, you need God all the way
