Starting Your Day with God: The Key to Successful Days
“In the morning, Lord, you hear my voice; in the morning I lay my requests before you and wait expectantly.” - Psalm 5:3
Starting your day with God is like setting a compass at the beginning of a journey. It aligns your heart with His, sets your spirit on the right path, and prepares you for the day’s challenges and opportunities.
Spending time in God’s Word in the morning is like feasting on spiritual food. It nourishes your soul, strengthens your faith, and equips you with wisdom for the day. It’s a time to hear from God, to be reminded of His promises, and to gain insight into His will.
Prayer, on the other hand, is a time to talk to God. It’s a time to express your gratitude, share your concerns, seek His guidance, and intercede for others. It’s a time to cast your burdens on Him and receive His peace in return.
Starting your day with God also sets the tone for the rest of the day. It helps you maintain a heavenly perspective amidst earthly challenges. It reminds you of God’s presence with you throughout the day. It fills you with hope, joy, and peace that can influence your interactions with others.
Ultimately, this alone time with God in the morning is an act of prioritizing Him. It shows that you value your relationship with Him more than anything else. It shows that you depend on Him for strength, wisdom, and guidance.
I say all of this to make the point that starting your day with God is not just a good habit; it’s a life-giving practice that can set up your day for success. Let’s make it a priority to spend time in His Word and in prayer each morning. And let’s remember that those who seek the Lord early will find Him (Proverbs 8:17). Start your day with God and watch how He orchestrates your day for success.
