Kingdom First Seeking
Kingdom First Seeking
“But seek first the kingdom of God.” Matthew 6:33
Only first-seekers become kingdom-receivers— and for good reason.
A first-seeker is one who values the kingdom of Christ above all things. A second-seeker is one who values the kingdom among many things.
A second-seeker of the kingdom obviously does not understand the value of the kingdom, and God will not give his pearls to pigs.
First-seekers are single-minded, whole-hearted, all-in people who value the kingdom of Christ above all things, and they are promised kingdom-receiving.
First-seekers are also usually early-seekers, often-seekers, and consistent-seekers.
The more you seek the kingdom, the more you receive, because in the kingdom the seekers are the receivers.
And that is a promise.
Loving Father, I declare myself to be a first-seeker of your kingdom. I am in love with Jesus. I want your kingdom rule and reign in my life in Jesus’ name.
