Bible Topics: First Place

Definition: First place, as used here, can be defined as that which is given preeminence or held supreme.

1. We are to desire the Lord above all else.

2. The Lord wants us to be in constant communion with Him.

3. We are to give the Lord first place in our hearts, and demonstrate our love with wholehearted obedience.

4. God is a jealous God; He's jealous for our sakes, knowing that only in Him will we find true happiness and fulfilment.

5. We should love Him in thanks for all that He has done for us.

6. We are to love and worship His Word and to give it first place in our thoughts.

7. God won't take second place in our hearts to others, in either our love or our loyalties.

8. God won't take second place, even to His service.

9. God ultimately wants all of you!

10. God blesses our putting Him first.

11. The Lord reserves a special intimacy for those who put Him first.

12. If we put Him first, He puts us first.

James Arendt

My name is James Arendt. I was raised in the Hegewisch neighborhood of Chicago, Illinois, served in the USAF from 1970 to 1974, and became a full-time missionary for Christ living 40 years in Japan, 3.5 years in Russia, and a few months in other countries such as Finland, Poland, Estonia, Latvia, South Korea, Taiwan and mainland China where I also served the King of Kings, Jesus, as an Ambassador for His Kingdom. My full bio.

On September 24, 2023, I had an accident and broke the bone of the tip of my left elbow. A boy ran in front of my motorbike less than 2 meters from me as I was leaving home. I stopped suddenly and my front tire slid on the sandy concrete road which caused me to fall. I did not hit the boy. On October 18th I had surgery done on my elbow. The doctor put in titanium rods to hold my bones together. The entire procedure including an entire week in the hospital was roughly $4000 USD. This was done in the Philippines where my wife and I have been living since June this year.


X-rays of bone before and after surgery that inserted titanium rods to reinforce my broken bone.

Before and after one week in the hospital.

Undergoing therapy to bend my arm again.
I'm now undergoing therapy to be able to bend my arm again.

It would be a super blessing to us if any of the visitors of this website can help us cover this expense!
