Discuss 4 moral lessons with biblical references​

#1 God Should Always Be First in Our Hearts

Exodus 20:3 says, “You shall have no other gods before Me.”

This is the first of what is popularly known as the Ten Commandments. However, its familiarity should not dissuade us from taking it seriously. This is the critical first step to dedicating your life to God as a believer in Christ: removing everything else from the center of your life and living for Him alone.

#2 Treat God as Your Most Treasured Relationships

Matthew 6:21 says, “For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.”

Jesus is speaking about what we treasure in our hearts, as well as our physical treasure. When we ascribe value or worth to something, we will seek to protect and hoard it for ourselves. The danger lies in placing something other than God as the object of our greatest value and love. By treasuring Jesus above all else, our hearts will be properly aligned and attuned to His purposes.

#3 God Cares for Us and Wants to Calm Our Fears

1 Peter 5:7 says, “Casting all your anxieties on Him, because He cares for you.”

The next time you are afraid, try giving your fear over to God. It will not be easy, and it must be done throughout your life, but we can claim this promise that God will always care for us, and He is able to take our fears and replace them with His peace.

#4 Bless Others with Your Time, Talents, and Treasure

Hebrews 13:16 says, “Do not neglect to do good and to share what you have, for such sacrifices are pleasing to God.”

We are called to live generously, giving to others without thought of what we will get in return. This applies to how we spend our time, what we do with the spiritual gifts and natural-born talents we possess from God, and our financial and material possessions. When we do good to others by sharing with them, God recognizes our selflessness and sees it as a sacrifice of service to Him.
