Thoughts on Today's Verse...

"Seek first his kingdom"!"
"Seek first... his righteousness"!
Seeking the kingdom of God first is the primary focus of today's verse and the Sermon of the Mount where it is found. "Seek first..." is Jesus' robust, prioritizing command. God's kingdom must be the passionate pursuit of our lives. Seeking the Lord's kingdom, and his righteousness must not just be our wish, our hope, our dream - it must be our passion. We will pursue God's kingdom at all costs. We will pursue it with all of our passion. Seeking God's kingdom first will be our consuming effort until we find it our home!

My Prayer...

Forgive me, dear Lord, for letting my passion for your kingdom and your character get pushed to the side in my priorities. I want to make it first. I want to seek your kingdom and your righteousness first! So, please awaken me each morning with a sense of prioritizing focus for your work and your will for each day. Father, I want to be a passionate seeker of your kingdom first, so please make me restless for your kingdom as my home. In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen.
