Faith is something to share. Show people that you care. Connect with heart-felt prayer. Jesus is everywhere. Breathe God’s Spirit like air. Let love never be rare And then you will prepare The way of the Lord. (Matthew 3:3) #poetry #poetrychallenge #poets #poetic

As long as they’re alive people have an equal 24 hours a day. What isn’t equal for people is their priorities. If you would like to have more time to spend with Jesus, make Him your first priority. Then you will have an amazing amount of time for Him.

It’s easy to prioritize what you see. It’s hard to prioritize what can’t be seen with your eyes — hope, love, joy, inner peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control.

“Someday I’ll . . .” is not a priority. It’s not a dream. It’s not even a desire. It’s an excuse! All is well when you keep Emmanuel as your first priority. (Romans 8:28)

Much that you now think matters won’t matter in eternity. Clocks are ticking. Your days are numbered. Prioritize Christ while you still can. Keeping Jesus first means saying no to a lot of things.

When people say that they don’t have time to pray, or that they are too busy to read the Bible, what they are really saying is that those things are low priority for them.

Can someone be a low-priority Christ-follower? If daily listening to and obeying the living Jesus isn’t someone’s first priority, is he a Christian? Have the courage to demote every priority in your life that is higher than Jesus.

When people consistently keep as their first priority listening to and obeying the risen Jesus their lives begin to demonstrate His presence and reality as the fruit and the gifts of the Spirit flow through them and heal those around them.

Whatever or whoever you focus on most is you’re first priority. Few dare to keep Jesus first. Changing your priorities changes your life. Try it and see. Put Jesus first.

Always prioritize the greatest prize–“Christ in you, the hope of glory.” (Col 1:27) Things that are eternal should never be set aside for things that are temporary. (Col 3:1-2) Let the Creator of time continually direct your time, your thoughts, and your behavior. (John 1:1-3)

If Christians instead of fighting back tears (John 11:35) would stop quenching the Holy Spirit (1 Thessalonians 5:19) there would be a mighty move of God throughout the land. Put Jesus always first and let Him continually touch your heart.

Priority one: First things first. I have discovered that I experience and realize what I prioritize. Therefore, I prioritize the kingdom of God and seek it first. Jesus first! No nation, no notion, no person, no desire, no plan can be first in my life. Only Christ the King!

Jesus has been crucified. Jesus has been tortured. Jesus has been despised. Jesus has been rejected. Jesus has been ignored. Jesus has been acknowledged. Jesus has been worshipped. Jesus has been obeyed. Jesus has been fully surrendered to. How do you treat Jesus? #poem #poemS

True Christianity Isn't hocus pocus. It's obedient and Intensive Christ-focus. #poetry #poetryrecitation #poetryrap

When you notice the characteristics of the fruit of the Spirit spontaneously and abundantly flowing through a Christian, you're seeing someone who is focused on Jesus. (Galatians 5:22-23)

If Christians today were named by what they focus most on, they would be called: Prosperityians, Faithians, Politicsians Religionians, Prideians, Churchians, Sermonians, Graceians, Pastorians, Justiceians, Patriotians, Prayerians, Selfians, and on and on.

The early Christ-followers were so intensely focused on Jesus that they were called "Christians." (Acts 11:26) Multitudes of American Christians are spreading a name all over social media and wherever they go, but it isn't the name of Jesus. (Acts 4:10-12)

Too much focus on religion can prevent you from daily interacting with the living and present Jesus.

When your attention is focused on Jesus your heart and your behavior follow Him. Jesus is within your reach. He's reaching out for you. Will you live your life focused on reaching out to Him? (Matthew 11:28-29)
