Daily Devotion -Put God First

But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and all these things shall be added to you -Matt. 6:33.

The kingdom of God is righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Ghost (Rom. 14:17). Therefore let us strive to keep a joyful spirit while doing the work of our Lord Jesus Christ in this earth. Let the Word of Christ dwell in us richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing each other in Psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in our hearts to the Lord (Col 3:16).

The Lord knows all we have need of. He also knows those things we want or go after which will not benefit us. We go after them because of our lust which may cause us to sin if we're not careful. Our God is omniscient. He knows all things and therefore knows what is best for us.

It is only wise to seek God's Kingdom and His righteousness and let Him seek out what's our best needs an provide for them as He knows best anyway. Seek Him today and leave everything else to Him. Put God first in your life and from all things you desire, God will bless you with those that will benefit you most.

Prayer: God help us not to be anxious for anything but in everything through prayer and supplication with thanksgiving make our request known to you. Amen.

Encouragement: A sparrow doesn't fall to the ground without our Father's knowledge and He knows the numbers of hair on your head. Don't worry or fret. You're of more value to God than a thousand sparrows.
