Hello - Satan will always keep you too busy for God and he will suggest those things are most important, if you are to be right with God. But there is always a quarrel between our common sense and the Revelations made in God's Book.
(Matthew 6:33): ....New American Standard Bible (NASB)
33 But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.
Remember the totality of the change in your life when you asked God into your life. You crossed over from death unto life and all things of the past are gone and all things become new. Thats huge...Think about it. You live by faith now in your spirit not your flesh any longer. Yet your flesh will fight not to die. So, don't believe the lie of satan that you must get rid of flesh, for His Word says it has been crucified with Christ on the Cross. But now that you are innocent by Jesus on the Cross, live a different life altogether, by way of the Holy Spirit seeking to your newly enlivened spirit. And let Him in you put to death the things of the flesh, as you set foot to it.
"Brothers and Sisters, in light of all I have shared with you about God's mercies, I urge you to offer your bodies as a living and holy sacrifice to God, a sacred offering that brings Him pleasure; this is your reasonable, essential worship. (Romans 12:1).
Just as a poet or an artist must keep his soul young on the right lines, so a Christian must keep the sense of God's call always awake. Spend plenty of time with God; let other things go, but don't neglect Him. And beware of practical work. We are not here to do work for God; we are here to be workers with Him, those thru whom He can do His work.
