Devotional – April 22, 2012

VERSE:
1 Kings 14:22–Judah did evil in the sight of the Lord, and they provoked Him to jealousy more than all that their fathers had done with the sins which they committed.

TRUTH:
The leaders of both the kingdoms of Israel and Judah led their people away from God. God wants a relationship with all His people. He gets jealous of out relationship with anything else we place higher than Him. Are we placing anything else higher than God in our lives? Is He jealous of anything in our lives?

RESPONSE:
Lord, I don’t want to cause You to be jealous. I want You to have first place in my life. Help me root out anything in my life that I’ve given a higher place that You.


Don’t forget – it’s Sunday, so check out my devotional on the Sisters in Cahoots page. Today we’re talking about Self-control. How disciplined are you?
