Seeking God’s Kingdom Above All

Opening Scripture

“But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.”
—Matthew 6:33 (NKJV)

The Importance of a Kingdom Mindset

In today’s world, it’s easy to focus on material things or personal success, but God calls us to seek His kingdom first. A kingdom mindset means prioritizing what matters to God—loving others, sharing the gospel, and living in obedience to His Word. Without this focus, it’s harder to navigate life’s challenges because we lack the spiritual tools needed to stay grounded.

Feeding God’s People with His Word

The Bible reminds us that God’s people need His Word, not personal anointing or charisma. Feeding others begins with personal devotion. Spending time in prayer, studying Scripture, and living out the Word allows us to lead by example and encourage others to do the same.

Attention Shapes Direction

What we focus on determines the course of our lives. When we fix our eyes on God and His righteousness, everything else falls into place. But if our attention shifts to money, material possessions, or even fear, we risk drifting from God’s plan. As Jesus taught, when we seek the kingdom first, God will take care of all our needs.

Trusting God with the Future

In times of uncertainty, remember that God is the ultimate provider. Whether it’s protecting us from danger, guiding us toward new opportunities, or teaching us to trust Him more, His faithfulness never fails. Let’s realign our hearts with His kingdom today, trusting that His plans for us are always good.

Closing Scripture

“Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen.”
—Ephesians 3:20-21 (NKJV)
