SEEKING THE

KINGDOM of god
If God told you what to
do, He will definitely
give instructions on
how to do it.
-MM
Life was designed to be
simple, not complicated.
The key to simplifying your
life is prioritization.
Keys to prioritization:
1. Prioritize
2. Organize
3. Discipline
Jesus identified the top priority
for all human being:
1. The kingdom of God.
2. The righteousness of God.
Matthew 6:25-34 NIV
25
“Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your
life, what you will eat or drink; or about your
body, what you will wear. Is not life more than
food, and the body more than clothes? 26 Look at
the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or
store away in barns, and yet your heavenly
Father feeds them. Are you not much more
27
Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour
to your life[a]? 28 “And why do you worry about
clothes? See how the flowers of the field grow. They
do not labor or spin. 29 Yet I tell you that not even
Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of
these. 30 If that is how God clothes the grass of the
field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown
into the fire, will he not much more clothe you—you
of little faith?
31
So do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or
‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ 32 For
the pagans run after all these things, and your
heavenly Father knows that you need them. 33 But
seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all
these things will be given to you as well. 34
Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for
tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has
enough trouble of its own.
• Our priority shouldn’t be things or
people, our priority should be a place and
position.
• God ONLY said to prioritize his Kingdom
and his righteousness, then all things will
seek you.
• That’s why God said “where your
treasure is there your heart will be also”
Ecclesiastes 2:21 NKJV
For there is a man whose labor is with
21

wisdom, knowledge, and skill; yet he


must leave his heritage to a man who
[a]

has not labored for it. This also is vanity


and a great evil.
Ecclesiastes 12: 13 NKJV
Let us hear the conclusion of the
13

whole matter:
Fear God and keep His commandments,
For this is man’s all
Proverbs 10:22 NKJV
The blessing of the LORD makes
one rich,
And He adds no sorrow with it.

• Pursue God’s priority

• Kingdom first

• The kingdom is God’s #1 priority with a promise

• We must give ourselves to the study, pursuit


and understanding everything about the
kingdom of God.

God, who shall not receive many times
30

more in this present time, and in the age


PRIORITY FOR CHILDREN:
Luke 18:15-17 NKJV
Then they also brought infants to Him that He

might touch them; but when the disciples saw it,


they rebuked them. 16 But Jesus called them to Him

God. 17 Assuredly, I say to you, whoever does not
