Knowing JESUS Daily Devotional | August 2, 2020 | LESSONS FROM PSALMS | ONE THING HAVE I DESIRED OF THE LORD | One thing have I desired of the LORD, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD, and to enquire in his temple. – Psalms 27:4
Dearly beloved the Bible is God’s book of wisdom to make you wise.
The pathway to attaining wisdom that can not be faulted is to listen to and be doing, the sayings of Jesus.
Mat 7:24 — Mat 7:25 Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock: And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock.

Our Lord in the course of His sayings, exhorted believers of all ages and you in particular, to choose one needful thing like Mary did. See it.
Luk 10:38 — Luk 10:42 Now it came to pass, as they went, that he entered into a certain village: and a certain woman named Martha received him into her house. And she had a sister called Mary, which also sat at Jesus’ feet, and heard his word. But Martha was cumbered about much serving, and came to him, and said, Lord, dost thou not care that my sister hath left me to serve alone? bid her therefore that she help me. And Jesus answered and said unto her, Martha, Martha, thou art careful and troubled about many things: But one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her.
Whenever you conscientiously do what Mary did, you will discover the following:
1. Never ever to gain anything, even your own life and loose your soul.
Luk 9:24 — Luk 9:25 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: but whosoever will lose his life for my sake, the same shall save it. For what is a man advantaged, if he gain the whole world, and lose himself, or be cast away?
2 Give God the first place in your life.
Matthew 6:33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.

3. Give Him your heart.
Proverbs 23:26 My son, give me thine heart, and let thine eyes observe my ways.
4. Give Him yourself.
2 Corinthians 8:5 And this they did, not as we hoped, but first gave their own selves to the Lord, and unto us by the will of God.
5.. Always be glad and be addicted to visit His house for holy worship.
Psalms 122:1 I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of the LORD.
Psalms 27:4 One thing have I desired of the LORD, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD, and to enquire in his temple.
6.. Loving God with all your heart will earn you innumerable earthly and eternal blessings .
1 Corinthians 2:9 But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.

7. Jesus Christ our Lord is the door way to your desired greener pastures.
John 10:9. I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture.
8. Until Christ shall come, continue to press for the mark of the high calling of God in Christ.
Phi 3:12 — Phi 3:14 Not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect: but I follow after, if that I may apprehend that for which also I am apprehended of Christ Jesus. Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.
9 . Always remember that one day in heaven is more than a thousand years on earth and that everything on earth shall be burnt in no distant future. So don’t attach much importance to earthly things.
2Pe 3:8 — 2Pe 3:14 But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up. Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness, Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat? Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness. Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless.

Beloved, now that you have a clearer understanding of one thing that is needful, see what your resolution should be till Christ comes.
Exodus 24:7 And he took the book of the covenant, and read in the audience of the people: and they said, All that the LORD hath said will we do, and be obedient.
