What Now?

You have been given several Scriptures and ideas to help you throw off the excess baggage you've carried with your technological devices. At this point, it would be wise to make a commitment to God to have these addictions loosened and to ask Him to strengthen you in the process!

With a genuine heart, pray this prayer with me:

Father God, I acknowledge that I have struggled with device and screen addiction. Please forgive me for allowing these things to have precedence over what You have for me. I have hindered Your purpose and plan for my life in doing so, and for that, I am so sorry. Deliver and help me, God, to take the steps necessary to put YOU FIRST, My First Love, The One who loved me before I could even recognize Your love. Strip from me any and all ungodly desires of the flesh, and help me to crucify these things, right now, in the Name of Jesus. Strengthen me to let go of what is unnecessary and to focus on what truly matters. May I make an impact for Your kingdom that will outlive me and leave Your legacy to carry on beyond myself. Jesus, take what I have learned from you in this devotion, and magnify it to the degree that my life will be marked as one that honors you in all things. Help me to make the first things, first, and cast off all the weights that have been clinging far too closely to me. Help me guide others in the right direction about these things in the most loving manner, especially the children who are innocently partaking in the enemy's evil plan. Help me to protect and nurture the children that You have put in my path in the proper direction so that their lives can be more meaningful and full.

Help me, God, to ABIDE in You in such a way that everything else pales in comparison.

Now thank You God, for delivering me from these addictions, and I trust that You will continue to guide me as I seek You Daily. Help me to put into practice all that You have taught me here, and by the power of Your Word, I am made WHOLE.

In Jesus' Name I pray, AMEN!
