What Are You Seeking!

“But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.”
Matthew 6:33
What Are You Seeking?
In Luke 5, when Peter obeyed Jesus’ word to let down his nets even though he’d fished all night and caught nothing, his nets began to break from such a large number of fish. Realizing who Jesus was and the miracle that had happened, Peter fell at Jesus’ knees in worship. Even though the catch was very valuable and could have been Peter’s focus, Peter showed by his actions that he was more interested in Jesus than success. He recognized the source of all good things was in his boat and that the goal was not the fish but to fulfill his purpose as a servant of the Most High God.

God has exactly what you need for each season of your life. If you keep God first place, He’ll add everything you need. The psalmist says, “Those who seek the Lord lack no good thing” (Psalm 34:10). The key is to not seek the blessing, but seek the Blesser. Keep Him first place, seek His kingdom and His righteousness, and the blessings you need will seek you. It will be more than you’ve imagined.
A Prayer for Today
“Father, thank You that I can come to You by faith, knowing that as I seek You and Your kingdom and righteousness, You will provide everything I need. Thank You for the blessings and favor that are mine as I keep You first place in my life. I believe that I will lack no good thing. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”

        Give Cheerfully “Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.”  (2 Corinthians 9:7) When giving is done with the right attitude, it can be a gateway for God to move in significant ways in our lives. It is important to remember that it is not the amount we give that matters so much as it is the attitude that characterizes our giving. God loves it when we give out of a cheerful and grateful heart. God’s loving of a cheerful giver results in God taking action in our lives. Scripture states unequivocally that God will make all spiritual and earthly blessing abound to us so we can multiply our efforts for the kingdom. This is why I believe giving provides a major gateway for God to work in our lives, we can expect God to visit us. Jesus will fellowship with the cheerful giver, and the Holy Spirit will impart life to out mortal bodies. When we weave a pattern of giving...

  The Best Anxiety Preventive Memorize and Meditate “ Therefore, get rid of all moral filth and the evil that is so prevalent and humbly accept the word planted in you, which can save you. ” (James 1:21) Soak your Heart For the Word of God to work in our heart, we need to make sure we have a clean heart, free from the control of sin. This is why we confess and repent of our sin to restore a working relationship with God. One of the best protections against sin gaining control is to humbly accept and plant the Word in our heart. God’s Word can save us from fear, anxiety, and a host of other maladies seek to control us. The Psalmist said he hid God’s Word in his heart so he would not sin against God. We want to soak our heart in the Word. Sow to the Spirit As I meditate on these concepts, I want to sow them to the Spirit by praying them into my heart and soul. I ask God to implant his Word deeply within my inner being. His Word is food for my spirit and soul. More times than I can re...
