This question was asked to find out what people's priorities are in response to many other questions that suggest different opinions, mainly "who's on the top of your list, kids or spouse?" type questions.

You forgot "self". If I empty my resources in service to others, drain myself to the point of exhaustion, I can be of no use to anyone. I have to keep my cup at least partly filled, or everyone goes thirsty.
And, you have to define exactly what your "importance list" refers to. My wife is going in for major surgery shortly. At the moment, she's home sick, in a great deal of pain. She needs my devotion and attention a lot more than God. My kids are grown and gone, so, right now, she's on the top of my list. My boss is entitled to a certain degree of loyalty and obedience, during the times and activities in which I have given him that authority. Outside of that, his well-being is not my particular concern.
You can't set any one person, entity or activity above all others. As needs and opportunity change, so do our priorities.
