While I was preaching, I identified several young ladies who did not have husbands.
I suggested to them to get married to a nice young man in church. They all refused.
“Why don’t you want to marry him, is he not a handsome man?”
“Yes he is,” they answered.
“Is he a spiritual person?”
“Yes he is. He is even a pastor.”
“Does he not have a car and a house?”
“Yes he does. Actually his car is very nice.”
“Then why don’t any of you want to marry him?”
“Because he has a wife already,” they answered.
I continued, “But you can be his second wife?”
In chorus they all cried out, “No way, no sir, we will not be second wives, we want to be number one.”
They felt insulted that I would offer them the second position. They wanted to be wives but not second wives. These young ladies wanted to be wives but only if they would be the FIRST AND ONLY wives.
THIS IS HOW GOD FEELS.
He knows we will serve Him but He wants us to serve Him FIRST. It is actually an insult to put God after anything! Unfortunately, God is constantly relegated to the second, third and sometimes tenth place of importance. It is time for God to take His PROTON (foremost) position in your life.
