Draw Nigh To GOD!!

Happy & Blessed Saturday Godly Wives!! 🌸

Job 22 tells us to decree a thing and it shall be established, so I am intentional about making a daily habit of declaring and decreeing over my life, my family, & the wives in this community!

Today, I declare and decree that a pattern of daily intimacy with God is being established in your life starting NOW!! In Jesus name!! (Matthew 6:33)

Quick check-in — are you putting God first before your marriage this week?

Are you meditating on Him more than you think about your problems?

Here's something most don't realize when they get saved...

Accepting Jesus gives you ACCESS to God's presence. But intimacy? That has to be PRACTICED.

A.W. Tozer said it best —

"Every person is as close to God as they want to be."

So if God feels far right now — that is not on Him. He has given you everything you need through His Word. The distance you feel is a decision that has not yet been made on YOUR end.

James 4:8 — "Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you." (KJV)

He is waiting on YOUR move. You have to Decide to give God your all

And here is what DE-CIDE really means — to CUT OFF every other option for first place. That means pursuing God MORE than your husband. Loving Him MORE than your children. Arriving at the place where if all you had was God — you could say with full conviction — I HAVE MORE THAN ENOUGH.

It is not until that becomes your real heart posture that God can trust you with everything else.

THIS is when ALL things — including your marriage — begin to work together for your good. (Romans 8:28)

Matthew 6:33 — "But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you." (KJV)

Not your marriage first. Not your husband first. Not even your desires.

GOD first. Everything else gets added.

✅️ Declare by faith "GOD IS MORE THAN ENOUGH" if you're de-ciding to intentionally put God first today.

And here's the thing, even if you woke up and ran straight to your to-do list, you can still put God first RIGHT NOW. Why? Because it's simply a heart posture, not based on any works. The works will be the fruit, but your heart posture is the root.

P.S: Most wives know they should seek God first, especially when it comes to their marriage. What they are missing is a repeatable PRACTICE that holds even in a hard marriage season.
