Double dose of spirituality
But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. (Matthew 6:33 KJV).
Sometimes we think God supplies all our needs. We even claim “But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus” (Philippians 4:19 KJV). Even in Philippians 4:13 it says, I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. So there is a relying on God first just like in Matthew 6:33 where we are to seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness before all things will be added unto us. What are all these things?
In the prior verses 25-32 Jesus was talking about clothing, food and drink. Material necessities which we need as our basic needs. A good father will ensure that his child has their basic necessities. How much more will God the Father give to us our basic needs? We need to seek God first. If you are lacking these things seek God get a double dose of spiritual living. Pray, do a Bible study, spend time with God every day and see how God our loving Father will take care of you.
In Christ,
Greg
