But first and most importantly seek (aim at, strive after) His kingdom and His righteousness [His way of doing and being right—the attitude and character of God], and all these things will be given to you also.
Matthew 6:33 AMP
Praise be to God for this beautiful day and the opportunity to rejoice and be glad in it.
Today’s scripture is one of Jesus’ most important teaching when He started His ministry here on earth. The command to seek first God’s Kingdom and righteousness forms the basis of our Christian faith.
In this scripture Jesus makes it clear that if anyone wants to pursue Christianity, then set your priorities right by turning to God first.
To seek God first means to fill your thoughts with His desires, to pattern His character, to serve and obey His Word. All the things that we desire in this life shall be added on after we have taken the foremost step of seeking the Lord.
May we seek the Lord and His righteousness first. May our character follow the pattern of Christ Jesus and may we receive all the other things we desire in this life in Jesus Mighty name. Amen
