Closer to God!

 For Sunday, February 5, 2023:

Matthew 6:33 NLT, Jesus speaking: “Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need.”

Jesus’ ultimate goal is to redeem mankind from our sinful ways. That’s why he came to walk alongside mankind. Jesus is to see to it that the children of God can spend eternity with their Father in heaven. As you might expect, Jesus gives good advice and simplifies the process.

Rather than concentrating on a list of do’s and don’ts, Jesus counseled the believes to first seek the kingdom. Get closer to God. If you’re living your life in such a way as to seek the Lord, you won’t need the list!

Any good parent makes sure that their children have everything they need, and our Father in Heaven is no exception. Our omniscient God knows who is living for him and who is truly seeking him. He will provide for them and take care of them until he calls them home. Then they will enjoy eternal care!
