~ Let us stay focused on who He is and put our God first this week, and at all times.

🌺Beloved, it is God’s desire that we put Him first in our lives because He is worthy.

🌺Therefore, we are to do everything in His name.

🌺The Word of God is very clear about where God should be in the priorities of our lives.
