Cling to God

Cling to God

3/2

Psalm 63:8

The Word of God has much to say about morning. David started his day praying and listening to God. He instructed the priests to stand every morning to thank and praise the Lord, and likewise at evening. He said “The Lord has given peace and rest to His people” (see 1 Chronicles 23:25-30). Many times we pray and pray, but, like Lot, we don’t listen. For example, angels prompted Lot early in the morning to flee from Sodom and avoid its coming destruction (see Genesis 19:15). We can avoid disasters when we wait on God’s instructions before acting. A great beginning leads to a great finish. Begin your day with thanksgiving and praise, and in the evening before you rest, thank the Lord again for a great day.
