Matthew 33:6 assures us that by seeking God’s kingdom and His righteousness, all of our needs will be met.
The Sermon on the Mount is one of the most important passages in the Gospels. In it, Jesus tells us to prioritize our relationship with God and trust in His provision for our needs. Specifically, Christ tells us that by seeking God’s kingdom and His righteousness above all else, we can be assured that our needs will be met.
Seeking God First
The Sermon on the Mount conveys why Christ came into this world. In His own words, Jesus gave us the map to everlasting life. He also gave us the words with which to pray to our Father in Heaven. Moreover, He instructs us in what it means to fulfill our responsibilities as Christians and how to live lives that are pleasing to God so that we’re worthy of eternal life.
May we strive daily to live as Jesus instructs us. First, seeking God’s kingdom and righteousness above all else, trusting in His faithful provision, and living without anxiety about the future. Amen.
