In everyday of our life, we worry about everything under the sun. And for those who are studying, we worry whether we get As, those working, you worry whether you did the right thing at work today. Have we ever thought of seek first the Kingdom of god?
3 things that can help us to be children who will seek first the kingdom of God
1. Trust in the Lord Vs 25
- Trust is a word that cannot be explained simply, it needs to be experienced.
- Proverbs 3:5: Trust the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding.
-You need to believe that the Lord will make a way where there seems to be no way!
- Commit to Him all your worries.
- Phil 4:6 Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.
2. Know that God knows you need them. Vs 32
- After you trust, you must know that God knows you need them. It might be the $$, the grades for you to enter into a higher education. It might also be disciplining students and class management in class. It might also be just a simple test or quiz, know that the Lord knows you need the wisdom or skills in order to fulfill the tasks.
- You need to trust in the Lord! Remember He knows what is the best for you!
3. Seek first His kingdom Vs33
- What is “His Kingdom” mean to you? Is it God asking you to do Quiet time? To pray to Him, to lead a cell group, to serve Him during the times when you have a worry?
- What’s after seek first His Kingdom and righteousness?? It is .... and all these things will be given to you.
- What are these things? These are the things pagans run after. Pagans are people who don’t believe God. We also run after, like grades, $$, status and recognition at work. God knows we need them. But he said “ But seek first His kingdom……”
Is the Lord asking you to put aside some time to seek Him today?
