Priorities
“But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.” (Matthew 6:33 NIV)
by Chris
This one is easy to get backwards.
It seems so natural to seek all the things that we would like first, then ask God to aide our journey.
It’s easy to get caught up in the worries of the world and thoughts of
the future without realizing you have forgotten to allow God priority in
the plans of your life.
Brothers, God not only knows what we want, he knows how to get it to us.
His timing is just a little bit different than ours.
The promise the word gives us is that all our needs will be granted the moment we stop pursuing them first and pursue Him.
Reading these devotionals every morning is a start.
Lets be conscious throughout our days to allow our first
pursuit to be a pursuit of righteousness and His kingdom.
Lets pray...
“Father
thank you for your love and kindness. And for your provision that never
runs out. Today Lord we pray for a heart to continually seek you first
and a desire to do your will. We believe everything we need is granted
in the pursuit of righteousness. A pursuit in which our steps are
ordered by you God. Thank you for your guidance... Amen”
