Psalms 5:1-12. Verse 3, by what attitudes and practices can I put God first every morning? Why is it important?

Ephesians 3:1-13. Verse 8, why would this mighty apostle rate himself below the least of saints? Where am I on the scale of spiritual pride vs. humility?
Luke 11:24-28. Doorkeeping, further: where am I at risk of leaving the demons a vacancy? What’s the remedy? Action point?
