Bible Question:
What is rightensouness and Kingdom? Seek ye first the kingdom of God and His rightensousns? what is it? |
Bible Answer: Seeking first God's kingdom to me means we put God first in all things. In giving, in living, in loving etc. Think how many problems we could solve if we put God first. Jesus once said, "The poor you will always have." Think about that and ask why? Do we not have enough food? No, we have food in silos that are rotting so we have enough food. Do we not have enough money? In this country alone we have billions of dollars of disposable income we have enough money and resources to wipe out hunger and poverty many times over. So what do we lack, Compassion! People don't seek God first. We give not of our firsts but what we have left over, many more don’t give at all. We Christians are not innocent either, when I was a full time minister there were a couple of times I saw families break up because one or more of the partners found someone else. Once in counseling a couple told me they just were not happy any more and this other person made them happy. They added and I feel God wants me to be happy. To many times we put what we want above what God wants. I hope this helps peace one. |
