Seek, Find, and Flourish

“But first and most importantly seek (aim at, strive after) His kingdom and His righteousness [His way of doing and being right—the attitude and character of God], and all these things will be given to you also” Matthew 6:33, Amplified Bible.

My sister, seek the kingdom of God and His righteousness above all else.

Seek the Lord’s forgiveness and you will find His mercy. You will flourish knowing the past is forgotten and a beautiful future awaits you.

Seek an intimate relationship with Jesus and you will find a friend who sticks closer than a brother. You will flourish knowing you are never alone.

Seek His love and you will find it is perfect and casts out all fear. You will flourish knowing nothing can separate you from God’s love and it can never be lost.

Seek your identity in Christ and you will find freedom from the lies that hold you captive. You will flourish knowing you are beloved, chosen, anointed, and protected by God.

Seek to live like Jesus and put your desires to death. You will find contentment and flourish knowing you are wrapped in His grace.

Seek the Word of God and you will find hidden treasures. You will flourish in wisdom and understanding.

Seek the will of God and you will find peace and direction. You will flourish in your purpose and calling.

Seek the Spirit of God and you will find unimaginable power. You will flourish by relying on the strength of the Spirit and not your own.

Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and all will be added unto you. God will meet your every need and you will flourish wherever you are planted.

Prayer: Father God, thank you for your provision and love. Help us to seek your kingdom and righteousness above all else. Root out those things that hinder our relationship with you. Lord, have your way in our hearts, and may you be glorified in our lives. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Read Proverbs 21:21; Jeremiah 29:13; Matthew 5:6
