Focus:

1 To adjust your eye, a lens, a TV, or similar item to produce a clearer image.

2 To fix or settle on one thing; to concentrate

3 To focus one’s attention on a specific subject or question.

One of the main tactics that the enemy uses is to try and keep our focus on the wrong thing.  He works hard at drawing our focus away from God and His Living Word.

Throughout Scripture we see people who had their Faith and Life focus on God and His Living Word.

In order for their Faith to work they had to be Focused on Love, the Word, and Faith.  Faith works by Love. Faith is applied to the Word.

They corrected themselves, their emotions, and the way they responded to the circumstances of life based on God and His Word. 

Their life focus was their relationship with God. The same should be true of every Christian.

Psalm 25:  1 – 2 UNTO YOU, O Lord, do I bring my life. (2a) O my God, I trust, lean on, rely on, and am confident in You. (Amplified Classic)

Psalm 27: 1 THE LORD is my Light and my Salvation–whom shall I fear or dread? The Lord is the Refuge and Stronghold of my life–of whom shall I be afraid? (Amplified Classic)

What in your life do you focus on the most?  What is Your Life Focus? What we focus on the most becomes who we are.

To be successful in any area of life we must be focused in that area. If we are not focused, we will not be successful.       

We must decide where our focus should be. What we focus on goes farther than just being successful in this life.  Our life focus will determine our destiny in this life and our eternity that follows.

God gave man the right to choose.  He will back our choice.  The choices we make determines our focus.

Romans 8: 6 For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. (NKJV)

Matthew 6: 33 – 34 But seek (aim at and strive after) first of all His kingdom and His righteousness (His way of doing and being right), and then all these things taken together will be given you besides. (34) So do not worry or be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will have worries and anxieties of its own. Sufficient for each day is its own trouble. (Amplified Classic)

Our Life Focus must be on God’s Living Word first of all.   

Colossians 3: 1 – 3 IF THEN you have been raised with Christ [to a new life, thus sharing His resurrection from the dead], aim at and seek the [rich, eternal treasures] that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. (2) And set your minds and keep them set on what is above (the higher things), not on the things that are on the earth. (3) For [as far as this world is concerned] you have died, and your [new, real] life is hidden with Christ in God. (Amplified Classic)

Colossians 3: 17 And whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him. (NKJV)
