Greetings guys, its still me danbrilliant. I'm here again to bring a knowledge filled article. Read and stay blessed.
*Text: Matt. 6: 33*
“Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need.” (NLT)
It is God’s desire for all of His children to live an anxiety free life. He does not want His children to be anxious about anything and so he gives assurance that it is very possible for us to have all our needs provided for. He can provide for us all the food we need, all the money we need, all the peace we need, all the joy we need, in short He can provide for us everything we need provided that we put Him first in our life.
So our text tells us that we need to set our priorities right and once we do that, then we have rightly positioned ourselves to receive everything we need from God. Setting our priorities right simply means putting God first in all we do. To put God first is to put everything relating to His Kingdom first above every other thing we seek or pursue in life. The kingdom of God talks about the government of God, we should realize that as God’s children our loyalty goes first to His government ahead of any other government. We should therefore commit ourselves first and foremost to the pursuit of the establishment, the growth and welfare of His government above every other pursuit in life.
This begins first with us making sure that our lifestyle is fully compliant with the demands of His kingdom – a lifestyle of righteousness, a life of total submission and obedience to the rules and the demands of His kingdom thereby being a worthy ambassador of the kingdom and bringing glory to God. Secondly we actively and zealously commit ourselves to evangelical effort that will lead to more people turning away from sin, rejecting the kingdom of darkness and flowing into the kingdom of God. These does not imply that we live our jobs and become full time evangelist or pastors, but that in our work, business or vocations we introduce the kingdom to people, we talk freely about the kingdom and the blessedness of being in the kingdom and we also showoff the blessings of the kingdom in our own life and in the life of others who are already in the kingdom so that those outside the kingdom will also desire to come into the kingdom.
When we live our life this way, we will be able to truly shine as light for God in this world and God assures that everything we need will be added to us. He that has promised is faithful and will certainly do it as long as we are faithful to fulfil our own part. Shalom.
