PRIORITY PROMISE

Matthew 6:33 "But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and His righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you."

Jesus taught us a lot of great things in Matthew chapter 6, but there is one truth that is found in verse 33, that we should certainly take to heart in this time. Jesus taught us that our number one priority is to seek God’s kingdom first and his righteousness (not ours) and all our other needs will be taken care of. This sounds almost too good to be true. The sad part of the story is that most people will never know if this promise is true simply because they will never try it.

By nature, most people feel that it is our responsibility to supply our own needs, and this is at least partly true. What Jesus is trying to teach us is that if we keep our priorities right then God will show us what we need to do to meet our every need. Many of us will spend a lot of our life trying to acquire things that we probably don’t need. The Old Testament says that our God is a jealous God. He is not willing to accept any place in your life except first. When we think about it, if you were God, would you. I challenge you to claim this promise and see if God will honor it.

I have a feeling you will be surprised to see how much God loves you and wants to make life easier, but we must do it His way. All His promises are true.
