Matthew 6:33 (NKJV) 33 But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.
Jesus told us in pretty clear words how to please God and be successful in every area of our lives.
Want a strong, happy marriage? Seek God first.
Want a career that’s satisfying and rewarding? Seek God first.
Want a strong family that’s close knit? Seek God first.
Want to have strong faith? Seek God first!
Want a strong walk with God, where you learn how to hear Him more easily, discern things more readily and have a deeper understanding of His word? Seek Him first.
This may seem overly simple, but it’s absolute truth.
Our primary objective as a follower of Christ should be to walk as closely as possible with God and follow the footsteps of Jesus as closely as possible.
When we do this, it makes our lives much easier and makes our relationship with God so much stronger.
We need to put God first in everything we do and every decision we make.
Maybe you’re thinking that you’ve never really put God first, and now you have a big mess on your hands due to poor choices you’ve made. But that’s OK. It’s never too late to get it right!
Starting today, make a conscious effort to put God first. It might not come easily at first, but as you do this more and more, it will get easier and easier. And soon it will become second nature.
Seek first the kingdom of God.
