Seek First the Kingdom
Today's Scripture
“But seek (aim at and strive after) first of all
His Kingdom and His righteousness (His way of doing and being
right), and then all these things taken together will be given you
besides” (Matthew 6:33 AMP).
Today's Word from Joel and Victoria
What are you aiming at and striving for in life today? Are you
seeking first His Kingdom? The Bible says that His Kingdom is
righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit. When you seek
righteousness, which is God’s way of doing things, you are seeking
the Kingdom. When you seek peace, both in your heart and in your
relationships with others, you are seeking the Kingdom. When you
choose joy and invite the Holy Spirit to direct your steps, you are
seeking the Kingdom. And just as this verse says, when you make
God’s Kingdom a priority, all things will be given to you. What are
all things? That’s everything else. That’s provision. That’s health.
That’s strength. That’s direction. If you’ve been putting other
things first, make the decision right now to change and seek God’s
way. Put His Kingdom first. As you do, you’ll begin to experience
fulfillment and peace in every area of your life!
A Prayer for Today
Heaven Father, thank You for Your Kingdom which is righteousness,
peace, and joy. I choose to seek Your Kingdom today. I choose to
seek Your way of doing things. I invite You, Holy Spirit, to direct
my steps and keep me close to You always. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
