Love God

Let’s get rid of that morning fog. This is “Just a Vapor” a quick glimpse into God’s Word. It is Friday September 11th, 2020. Todays verse is Mark 12:30, “And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment.”

The first commandment in Exodus 20 verse 3 reads, Thou shalt have no other gods before me. A better wording might be no other Gods above me, or even on the same level. Here Jesus is telling us the place that God must occupy in our lives. We need to love God with all of our heart as He loves us and demonstrated that love toward us, with all our soul that He purchased on the Cross, with all of our mind thinking on the things above and meditating on His word, and with all of our strength making every effort to keep His commandments and demonstrate His love. This is the first commandment, love God
