Seek First the Kingdom
„But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.”
God knows what you need. He is not blind to your bills, your responsibilities, your worries, and your questions. Jesus does not say that these things are unimportant, but He does put them in their proper place. First the Kingdom. First God's will. First His righteousness. That sounds good, until you realize how many of your choices are actually driven by fear, haste, or self-interest. The question is not whether God can provide for you. The question is whether you truly give Him the first place, even when your feelings scream that you must solve everything yourself.
Proclamation
I seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness. My life is not led by fear or lack, but by trust and obedience. My Father knows what I need.
Prayer
Father, correct my priorities. Teach me not to first serve my worries, but to seek Your Kingdom. Give me confidence that You provide as I obey You. In Jesus' Name. Amen.
