When discipline becomes your first love – March 19 Devotional

by Stephanie Lacey

Arise early my dear one and seek my face. Though your flesh battles you in this make it your daily discipline to run to my throne each morning before you take on your day. As you do this each day and witness the difference my presence makes in your life it will become your deep desire and love to do so. Taste and see that I am good. This time with me each day will become your favorite. You will long for the next morning to come quickly as you encounter me more deeply each time. Consistency with me the enemy hates. He hates this because when your focus is upon me bringing my presence which drives him off of your path. This is part of the reason it is so important to be with me each day. The enemy cannot stand when my presence is drawn in. But it is your decision. You see that you have an important part in this with me here on earth. It is my determination to bring heaven onto earth but my design requires vessels. It is my covenant with man through my Son Jesus Christ. I designed man for family. I designed man for communication and communion with me. In seeking me each morning you will indeed encounter me and be increased in closeness with me, drawing from me all that I have with me.
