King - Four Times!
A Crown awaits me in Heaven ...
Our lesson today is about how God is our Lord and He wants to be King of our lives.  Our text is:

"You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul,
and with all your mind, and with all your strength" (Mark 12:30).

If we are to love God as the text says, then we must first ask Jesus to come into our hearts as our Saviour and Best Friend.  And then God will be King of our hearts.  Next we must ask God to fill us with the Holy Spirit.  The Bible says that our bodies are to be the temple of the Holy Spirit ( 1 Corinthians 6:19 ).  This makes God the King of our bodies (our soul).

The Bible tells us not to think about bad things, but to always think about good things ( Philippians 4:8 ).  If we do this, we then make God the King of our minds.  Lastly, we need to serve God with all our heart so that we can please Him in all we do.  We need to do this with all our strength.  And so make God the King of our strength!

Now we can see that God is King four times in our lives!  Here are four things that God wants to be in your life.  Read them out loud:

God is the King of my heart.
God is the King of my soul.
God is the King of my mind.
God is the King of my strength.

This is how God wants to work out plan to become Lord and King over all our lives.  When He completes this work we will truly be able to show the love of Jesus to everyone we meet. Here are four things that God wants in your life.  Read them out loud:

My heart loving only Jesus.
My life given to Jesus.
My mind thinking about Jesus.
My strength used for Jesus

Say these four things as a prayer every day, until God makes your life fully like this.

 
God bless!
