Daily Journal- Holy Portion for the Prince

Hello friends, I'm in Sin City, that's right, Las Vegas. I came with my wife and the kids and her family for a couple days. A few years ago I wouldn't have been able to do this (because of the temptation), but God has done a miracle in my life, and He has made it so that I'm only happy when I do right and walk with Him. So drinking and gambling are out of the question because that's not me anymore. Anyway... Have a good day, God bless all of you!

SCRIPTURE:
What remains on both sides of the holy portion and of the property of the city shall belong to the prince. (Ezekiel 48:21)

OBSERVATION:
I don't know the context for this scripture because I did the thing where you close your eyes and just open your Bible. Why did I do that? Because I don't have my usual study Bible with me, I just have a little pocket Bible. I'm in Las Vegas and it was either watch a movie or open my Bible. I chose to open my Bible and hear from God, since I've been hearing and seeing the devil's message since I got here. It seems like every billboard and sign has a half naked woman on it, and the love of money is out of control.

APPLICATION:
This scripture talks about a holy portion that belongs to the prince. Like I said, I don't know the context of this verse, but I know this: I'm the holy portion, and I belong to the Prince. Jesus Christ is the Prince and I belong to Him. Actually the Bible says that I am holy, set apart for Him. Now, being holy doesn't mean perfect or better than others, it means set apart. I am set apart, and I belong to Jesus for His purpose. So, it doesn't matter where I am, home or Las Vegas, I am ready to be used by the Prince because my life belongs to Him.

PRAYER:
Dear Lord, thank you for your grace and mercy! Thank you for saving me! Thank you for bringing me from a life of perversion, addiction, greed and sinfulness. I love you with all my heart Jesus! In Jesus Christ name, Amen!
