Seeking Him

I wonder if we think about some passages in the Bible as we should. God has made some very heartening promises for His faithful children. For example, Matthew 6:33 says, “But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.” It’s a wonderful promise, but one has to be right before God.


“Seek” means a “diligent search” and “first” means “before anything else.” Do you truly seek God in this way? Do you make a diligent search to please Him before anything else? To do otherwise is useless. When Peter complained that they had left everything to follow Christ, He promised them that they would receive back many times over and they would receive eternal life (Mark 10:28-30).


We worry a lot about the future but we should just be putting God first. Psalm 37:4-5 says, “Delight thyself also in the Lord; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart. Commit thy way unto the Lord; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.” The way that you can put Him first is by obeying Him. Please contact us if you would like to know more about obeying His will.
