Pursuing His Kingdom by Alive to God

Matthew 6:31 – 33 ‘So do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. But seek you first the kingdom of God, and His righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.’

Jesus spoke these words to His followers and just as they had bearing on those who were listening then, they have bearing on us today. He is speaking about our desires, our pursuits and the real things that we should be concerned about. This message still rings clear to us today as we seek His kingdom. He spoke this message in the midst of many other thoughts about the worries and concerns of the people of the day. In the same way in our modern context, people are still consumed by the worries of our day. Jesus gives us an alternative and strategy by which we can live our lives. The rewards are well worth the effort.
