Welcome to day two of the fast. Your dedication is commendable and is drawing God’s attention. Let’s focus on a key paradigm for our lives, found in Matthew 6:33:
“But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.”
This imperative from Jesus offers a blueprint for success in God’s Kingdom. Miles Monroe said, to seek “means to pursue, study, explore, understand, learn, and consider. Seekers must have a desire to know, and possess a passion for the object of their search. To seek means to give diligent dedication to and to preoccupy one’s self with that which one is seeking.”
As Kingdom citizens, we should align every aspect of our lives—clothing, food, conversations—with God’s principles.
Studying the Kingdom of God helps us function as proper citizens, understanding its laws, economics, norms, and relationships. We need to explore what’s important in God’s Kingdom: its anthem, capital, governing body, and protection.
The Message Bible translates Matthew 6:33 as: “Steep your life in God-reality, God-initiative, God-provisions. Don’t worry about missing out. You’ll find all your everyday human concerns will be met.”
Today, seek God’s Kingdom in everything you do. Ensure your clothes and speech represent His Kingdom. Pursue, study, and explore it diligently. Your life will be enriched as a result.
