"Put God first every single day of your life
before anything else" is what devout people have been saying for long.
And literally,
if you go to church first thing in the morning before doing anything: before eating and drinking something, before having breakfast, before going to work, before doing about your business before exercising or before doing your daily chores, etc. is literally putting God first. And if you're Catholic and you attend the first mass before going through your daily routine, and the first thing that goes into your stomach is the Holy Eucharist during Communion, you're doing something extraordinary only very few people do! Think of the blessings you'll receive in the coming days. And the blessings will come, not pertaining to money and riches and worldly wealth, but those that material things can never match or equal. And they are Wisdom and Enlightenment, Knowledge and Understanding, Realization of your existence, Guidance on your journey through life, etc. These things will make you a better human, full of the knowledge of God and full of love and compassion for your fellow humans. Nothing else compares to them even if you have all the riches ​and wealth in this world. And these very things are the only things that matter to God.
Even though we live in a material world,
it doesn't mean that our pursuit is concentrated on material things alone. Material things like money and riches are important in our survival but we must pay more attention to things that please the Almighty One. These very things are good and positive and they give us happiness and contentment even with having only little or limited things. It's no use living your life always longing and working hard for riches because this world, along with everything in it, is created and owned by God. And it doesn't make sense at all when you wake up before the sun does only to go about your business and work all through your day and even stay up late at night still doing the same thing. You maybe piling up money and riches but God can take them all away anytime He wants when you're not putting Him first before anything else. Think about this: you maybe rich now but it's possible that tomorrow you'll wake up poor and in debt because there's nothing impossible with God. He can reward anyone He wants with anything and He can punish anyone and strip him of his riches in an instant. So make a change of your life and your lifestyle now. Put God first in everything you do. Put Him first before anything else and He will reward you greatly with things you never thought you could be rewarded with. And even if you don't work as much as others do, He will still make you richer than everyone else all because you're putting Him first in everything you do. Just believe that!
