What is your utmost desire? [ April 4,2023 ]
What is your utmost desire?
Psalm 37:4
Delight yourself in the Lord and He shall grant you the desires of your heart
Your “utmost desire” is what you want most in life. The verse above says if you serve God, happily and faithfully ( Delight yourself in the Lord) , He will give what you want most ( utmost desire)
Matthew 6:33 says
Seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and all these things shall be added unto you.
Meaning, when you put God first before your own desires, that is if you fulfill your mission as an ambassador of Christ in these end times and live to please God, whatever you need, want and require, God will provide.
John 15:7
If you abide in me and my w ok rds abide in you ask whatever you will and it shall be done unto you
This verse from the new testament confirms what is explained above, if you put God first in life, you will receive what you desire.
Most often our prayer requests are not answered when we pray because we do put God first, we just want Him to meet our needs.
Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him and He shall direct your paths.
God be with you
How can I apply the word to my life?
1. Seek to please God in all you do.
2. Fulfilling the Great Commission ( Matthew 28:19-20) should be very important to you.
Prayer
Let this song be your prayer
My heart’s desire is to serve you Lord
My heart’s desire is to serve you Lord
So Lord I pray, I pray, I pray
Baptize me with Pentecost fire
Amen
