"Ah, it's morning, wake up, taking a bath, brushing teeth, dressing up for work, and checking for updates..."
Wait!
Yes...Where's the morning prayer?
Every morning, there are always something we need to do. Praying sometimes feels like a burden while you can do other things that may be more useful. Or you do agree that prayer is useful but in some circumstances, you prefer to do other thing first.
Well, that was me.
I had moments that I thought not praying first before starting my day is acceptable. I thought that God would tolerated my action to postpone my prayer in the morning.
I ended up not praying at all.
Even though God did tolerate my action, what really happened was that when I postponed to pray first, I began to move away from God.
That day felt so stressful and things didn't work well.
From that moment, I learnt that finding God first (especially when you wake up) was and is the best decision you will ever make.
Well, in that case, what will we get if we, first thing first, pray to the God? Here are 4 things you can expect from God if you decide to pray to Him first.
1. God will answer you
God loves to talk with us!
He can hear us and answer us. Some may say that they don't hear God's voice. However, God doesn't speak to us audibly, but directly speaking to our heart. He speaks so soft that when God have finished talking, you just know what to do in response to His answer.
And realize that, you are able to talk with the most important One! (For Free!) How generous our God is.
And there's more!
2. God will walk with you throughout the day
God doesn't think that talking to you is enough, so he wants to walk with you, too!
Imagine the privilege! Being able to walk with God...
You don't have to pay tickets to do this. You only need to pray first! And you may ask," Why does God want to do that?"
I'll let you in to a secret. A very exciting secret!
God loves you.
He loves you so much that He wants to spend all times with you. Like, wherever you go, God will always be with you. At all times. Isn't that amazing?
But, hey. God does not only walk with you. He want to do more!
3. God will protect you anytime
Not only walking with you, but He will give you 24/7 protection! His protection is 100% guaranteed and He is not willing to see you unprotected.
God promises to us that you will have peace in your life and not disasters. And look who makes the promise here. You can be sure that our God will not break His own promise, especially to you.
So, let us not fear about how we will live our day. Don't be afraid again knowing that God can handle everything.
Since God can handle everything, there is 1 more things I want to tell you.
4. God will provide what you need
Yes! Don't live your life with worrying about what you need. Just like your mother knows that you were hungry and needed food when you were still an infant, it is the same with God. He knows and certainly will provide what you need.
With these 4 things I learnt, now you know that there are many wonderful things you will get by choosing to pray first. God loves to give us wonderful things. That also means you who are reading this.
So, have you decided to pray first when you wake up in the morning? Or do you have any experiences about this? I am looking forward to hear from you!
"Seek first the kingdom [of God] and his righteousness, and all these things will be given you besides."
-Matthew 6:33 (NABRE)-
