Love Thy Neighbour – hood

DAY 2 OF 7

LOOK TO JESUS

 God should always be the center of our world – our relationships, our workplace, our finances, our families, and our community. In order for our neighbourhood community and these areas of our lives to flourish, God must be at the center, and our eyes, hearts and minds must be fixed on Him. Just as a school looks to their principal, a country looks to their leader or a team looks to their coach, we must always look to Jesus. 

The Bible says that if we hear the Word of God and put it into practice, we will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock. No rain, rising streams or strong winds will be able to knock us down as long as we fix our eyes on Jesus. 

The Bible says that God knitted us together in our mother’s womb, He knows us so intricately that He numbered the hairs on our head. God desires more than anything to have relationship with us. When we put God at the center of our lives and look to Him, He takes care of the rest. This doesn’t mean life is going to be easy, but we can rest and trust knowing that God is in control.

The reality is that we cannot support one another if our own foundation isn’t strong. We need to strengthen our foundation by spending time in His word, in praise and worship and prayer. The Bible encourages us to, "Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and He will give you everything you need." (Matthew 6:33) By putting God first in all things, we can trust Him knowing that he will look after us.  

Prayer: God, I thank You for Your faithfulness. I thank You for desiring a relationship with me. God, I ask You to help me to desire more of You and your beautiful presence. I realize the importance of building a strong foundation on Your Word, so I ask that You help me to look to You and put You first in every area of my life. Amen.
