And walk in all the ways that I have commanded you, that it may be well with you.\u2019 <\/p>\n<p>Observation: All we need to do is obey our God.  He deserves our love and obedience and He should be the most important thing in my life, but every day it seems He takes a back seat of what I\u2019m doing that day.  I\u2019m so self-absorbed that my mind wanders from my focus on God.  He asks so little of me He just wants me to obey His commandment which are for my own good.  <\/p>\n<p>Application: God knows how weak I am and gives me the Holy Spirit so I\u2019ll stay on track, but I still have the choice to listen.  How I wish I didn\u2019t have that choice but was just forced to obey, but that\u2019s not love.  I need to put God first in everything that I\u2019m doing, He deserves at least that.  When I chose to do something, I need to make sure it\u2019s in line with God\u2019s commandment and that I\u2019m obedient in His calling for my life.<\/p>\n<p>Prayer Dear Lord you know your servant more than he knows himself.  You know I\u2019m doubleminded and my attention span is short.  I can\u2019t do this without You and I need the Holy Spirit each day to get me through so that I will be obedient.  You deserve the best I am and so much more.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Scripture Jeremiah 7:23 But this is what I commanded them, saying, Obey My voice, and I will be your God, and you shall be My people.
