KINGDOM SEEKERS
Text: Matthew 6:25-34
Emphasis: But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you (Matthew 6:33)
Narration:
Kingdom seekers are those who live their lives for Christ Jesus. They live as people who hope for an eternity with Him. They do not do anything without first seeking the face of God and they are patient enough to wait for His response – no matter how long it takes. Romans 14:17 gives a clear description of this kingdom life and this is what all true believers should live by.
The life of kingdom seekers is not focused only on earthly pursuits. While seeking for their daily bread, kingdom seekers do not cut corners, steal, lie or cheat others – they do the right thing, in the right way – whether or not anyone is watching. For kingdom seekers, living in righteousness is a lifestyle, and purity of the body, spirit and soul is their goal always. In today’s scripture reading, Christ Jesus promised that as we seek God’s kingdom and live in righteousness, God will in turn, take care of all our needs. This is an affirmative statement by Christ Jesus Himself, and it stands sure and fulfilled in the life of every true believer.
In addition to living in righteousness, kingdom seekers should be lovers of peace and endeavour to live peaceably with all men (Romans 12:18), following the example of Christ Jesus, their Master and the Prince of Peace. Also, kingdom seekers are ever joyous; material possessions and positions do not determine their mood. They encourage others even when they themselves are under attack from the devil (2 Corinthians 6:9-10). Being a kingdom seeker is the call to all true believers; don’t let the cares and vanities of this world steal you away from God’s kingdom already prepared for you (John 14:2-3).
Prayer: Heavenly Father, I pray for the strength and grace to seek Your kingdom always. Help me to live righteously, in peace and in joy. This I pray in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
