You can always use the first commandment.

God says right here to always put Him first, before anything or anyone.

Mathew 22:37-38 : Thou shalt love the lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul and with all thy might. This is the first and greatest Commandment.

Mathew 6:24: No man can serve 2 masters. For either he will hate the one and love the other; or else he will hold to the one and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and Mammon.

But Martha was cumbered about much serving, and came to him and said, Lord, dost thou not care that my sister hath left me to serve alone? bid her therefore that she help me.
Jesus answered and said unto her, Martha, Martha, thou art careful and troubled about many things: But one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her.

Collossians 3:1-2: If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God. Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.

Psalm 138:2 Thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name.

IJohn 2 :5 But whoso keepeth His word, in him verily is the love of God perfected. Hereby know we that we are in Him.
