In this brief sermon, Blake Robert Templeton exhorts listeners to make God—identified as El Elyon, the Most High, and the Prince of Peace—the foremost priority in every moment of life. He emphasizes that true peace and sustenance come only from God, warning that elevating anything else (wealth, relationships, personal ambitions) to the level of a deity leads to collapse. Templeton urges believers to recognize that Christ is the source of life and death, and that as long as they have breath, they have a God‑given purpose to discover and fulfill fully.

Chapters

The most important thing is put God first. The moment you wake up in the morning, he's got to be your first thoughts. The moment you go to bed, he's got to be your last thoughts. He's your sustaining breath. He's El Elyon, the Most High God. He's the Prince of Peace. This life's full of chaos. It doesn't have peace on its own. He's the only source of peace. He's got to be your everything, your foundation, your rock, your sustainer, your endurance. He's got to be your El Elyon, the Most High God. When you make something else the Most High God, whether it's you building physical assets or your marriage or your kids or living life through your kids, everything falls apart. Christ has got to be the center of everything. He's the one who gives you life and he's the one that takes life. And if you still got breath in your lungs, he's got life for you to live for one specific purpose. You gotta find out that purpose and live it to the full.
