What are we seeking?

We live in a selfish, materialistic world where people are seeking after worldly goods to please themselves.

Sadly, this is even in our churches. We all need to take inventory of our heart and attitudes concerning this world. What are we seeking after and whom do we seek? Seek means to look for and go after. Our first and main focus is to be the Lord Jesus Christ and His righteousness. Then whatever we have need of, He shall supply! Let’s not allow the devil to deceive us and lure us with the world’s bidding. It holds nothing in comparison to what God has for us in this life and in the life to come.


But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you. Matthew 6:33



The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly. John 10:10

These times in which we live, we must be very careful and watchful because they are perilous times.

I want us to think about where our focus is. This is very important in these last of the last days! Do we have one foot in the world and the other in the Kingdom of God? If so, we are in BIG trouble because we are not surrendering all we are to Jesus Christ.
