My dearly beloved in Christ, I greet and bless you all in the Name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. The auspicious word of God that comes to you for today is taken from the book of Matthew 6:33, “But Seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness an all these things shall be added unto you.”
My dear children of God, as Christmas is nearing, you all seem to be in need of so many things. You are wondering as to how you will pay the creditors. How you are going to solve your problems, some are thinking, “What shall I do to purchase clothes and other items for the Christmas celebration? Like this you may have several questions, rising in your mind. You are sitting with so many expectations, to happen in your life. God is also waiting to bless you with all that you need and He has a way, as to how you should receive those needs from God. So He advises you to first seek the kingdom of God and His righteousness, then you shall receive all that you desire in your life.
We are giving our priority to worldly things, wealth, riches, job, and so many other things. But God expects us to give our priority to Him. In this world, yes it is true money is required for certain needs but money should not become our top priority to lead our lives. So, it is necessary to seek the kingdom of God.
My dear children of God, what is the meaning of God’s kingdom? Many are thinking that the kingdom of God can be attained after our death, but this is not true. A man can enjoy the heavenly kingdom here on this earth while he is alive. In the Bible, we see how Jesus Himself tells his disciples how to pray. He teaches a model prayer for his disciples. “Your kingdom come, and your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven”. This means that we need to ask God to execute on earth the will of God as it is done in heaven. The plan and purpose of God practiced in heaven should be done on earth, so that you can enjoy heavenly life here on earth while you are alive. God wants you to enjoy heavenly life. Life of peace and joy. Godly Life of contentment and love. It is God’s plan that His will be done on earth in your life. So that it can be in tune with the heavenly kingdom, and His righteousness. This is the life we need to search for.
In the kingdom of God, no one will do witchcraft, there will be no backbiting, backslapping, making false report against someone. If you live a life on earth that is pure and clean, as it is found in heaven then you will enjoy the kingdom of God on this very earth. As a result, all that you desire will be obtained by you from God. He will meet all your needs according to the riches of His glory in Christ Jesus. So from today may, we learn to live a heavenly life. Commit your ways unto the Lord then all other things that you need will come to you of its own accord.
Prayer: Dear Lord, we thank you for talking to us through this verse “But Seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness an all these things shall be added unto you.” Help us to follow your principles. So that we may be blessed with all things. I pray in the name of Jesus that You will grant my children what they need. May they sanctify themselves, to obtain what You give them, or bless them with. May my children make a commitment that they will seek first the kingdom of God, and His Righteousness. That they may talk only good things and do only that which is right in the sight of God. Help them to be firm in the decision they make, so that they may be blessed by God with all that they need.
In Jesus Name We Pray.
Amen.
