Seek First

Matthew 6: 33
33 But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.

Yesterday for me, was without a doubt, one of the most frustrating days I can remember for a long time.
Nothing seemed to go right, and when it came time for me to go to bed, I could hardly wait.

For me, that seems to be more of the norm lately, than the exception.
And then it hit me… “How have I made Jesus and His Kingdom, first, today?”

I get e-mail’s all the time, of people allegedly hearing from God.
Then when I back track, and trace the true heart of the message, they haven’t sought Jesus first, either.

Seeking Jesus looks like something, and also sounds like something.
Call me a cynic, but I don’t see many people seeking Jesus first, before they seek something or someone else.

If we seek Jesus first, then it will never be about us.
If we seek Jesus first, then we will have abundantly, and without reserve.

When we seek Jesus first, we will not in any way, have a critical, wavering, spirit.
Committed people seek Jesus first…selfish people seek after selfish gain.

Maybe the reason some of our lost loved one’s still aren’t saved, is because they don’t see us seeking Jesus first.
Is that possible?


Ask yourself: “Is Jesus always at the forefront of my thoughts, and does He really guide my heart?
