Day 1: No Other Gods Before Me

Read Exodus 20:1-6

I will never forget this demonstration of dedicated commitment to spending daily time with God through the study of His Word. I saw him, a recent high school graduate, from my front porch very early one morning. He stopped by to tell me that he was on his way to Krape Park, saying: “I am going for my devotions. I go early every morning to make sure that the first words that I read each morning are God’s Word.” What a good demonstration of “No god before me” that was!

As you fast from your favorite distraction, are you seeking God and His Word before everything else? How are you going to detox your life so that you seek God first? From what distraction have you decided to fast this week?
