Introduction
Body
Tell the story of how I always had to be the first to test my brother’s inventions
Scott built them, so now I had to test them
He did his part, so now I had to do mine
We must offer our firsts to God
The firsts are very important to God
First of our Time
To Seek God
Set our hearts to seek the Lord early
In our lives
In the day
To Obey God
To Consecrate Ourselves to God
Our Best Offering
At one year old, the animal is old enough to full-grown but not old enough to consume more resources than it will return
The yearling represents a year of hard work and investment.
God is saying “Don’t bring me an offering of the animal you would have to kill anyway.”
God is the First
Take great care as to who/what you place as first in your life!
The First Commandment
We must know who God is
We must love God with everything in us
God has already offered His firsts to us
We’re Next
Most every one of God’s promises to us are in this format
“If you will…, then I will...”
God has already done His part.
He’s waiting on us to move next.
God has bound Himself to the Church
Before God moves, we must!
Moving Forward in God
God requires a few things from us to be effectively used by Him:
Our complete submission
If ye love Me, keep My commandments
We follow Christ’s example: “…not My will, but Thy will be done.”
Our bodies
Our lives
Everything we have
Conclusion
God desires to be first in our lives.
God worked first.
His desire is to continue His work here on earth, but He’s waiting on us.
God is going to use someone!
Will it be you!??!
