The Kingdom of God

““So above all, constantly seek God’s kingdom and his righteousness, then all these less important things will be given to you abundantly.”Matthew‬ ‭6‬:‭33‬ ‭TPT‬‬

We are told to seek God’s Kingdom. Where is that and what does it looks like? God’s Kingdom came among the people Jesus interacted with. They saw grace, forgiveness, deliverance, healing and miracles. Daily Jesus sought the Father in private prayer. He asked what His ways were for the day, His priorities.

What does God’s righteousness look like? Righteousness is right living, right with God. We cannot produce this in ourselves but we must live it by faith in Jesus. He alone was sinless and lived sinless. He sacrificed Himself for our freedom from sin.

My focus cannot be stuff. Jesus classes things as less important. He provides these less important things as secondary and not needing focus, God would provide them when needed.

My challenge is relegating things to ‘not important’ and God’s kingdom to ‘very important’.

Today after college I pack and leave on a bus to Chautara where I will spend the night. Tomorrow I am down to preach in two churches in the morning and present the Jesus movie in another at night. I plan to give three altar calls. I pray for souls!

Sunday I present teaching on trafficking in two schools then bus it home again. Monday I am back at language college.

I am 71 and believe the kingdom of God is important. How about you??
