What Is the Priority of Your Life? – By Iwalola(Lola) Ademodi Oshinowo

WHAT IS THE PRIORITY OF YOUR LIFE —that one thing around which everything else revolves in your life?

Jesus tells us that God’s kingdom and righteousness should be our highest aim. We have to be deliberate. This isn’t achieved through passivity; Matthew 6:33 uses the word “seek,” which implies activity and persistence.

God’s kingdom must be pursued every day, moment by moment.

The last sentence in verse 33, Jesus promised that ALL THESE THINGS will be added also when we prioritize God’s kingdom and righteousness

To seek the Father’s kingdom is to submit to His rule over every area of our life. The bottom line is obedience.

To seek God’s righteousness means cooperating with His process of transforming us into Jesus’ image. An integral part of this process is the renewing of our mind with Scripture. The Word of God keeps the Father’s viewpoint and instructions fresh in our thinking.

Take a moment to evaluate who or what dominates your thoughts and affections: Where do you invest time and money?

What desires govern your choices? Making Christ top priority requires submission to God, obedience to His Word, and trust in His ways. He will supply all your needs according to His glorious riches ( Philippians 4:9)

LET US PRAY

Heavenly Father, I pray that You would give us the desire to put first, Your kingdom and righteousness. Help us to respond to Your unconditional love towards us. Help us to trust You to supply our needs according to Your glorious riches. In Jesus’ mighty name, I pray. 🙏🏾

Have a blessed day ❤️

Share your love
