PUT THE PRIORITIES RIGHT......

First Things First


If you have difficulty living the Christian life, it’s because your priorities are wrong. If your priorities are right, your life will be right.

“But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and His righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.” (Matthew 6:33) If your first priority is God, the rest of your life will fall into place. There is incredible power in having the proper priorities. As a matter of fact, you could sum up the problem of most people’s lives with this one sentence: They fail to put first things first.

Have you substituted busyness for seeking God, and in doing so allowed something other than God to be your first priority?

This is exactly what I saw when I was invited to speak today to the college students of KENYA INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT NANYUKI BRANCH.
A group of students whom I learnt today that they leave their tools of study every Thursday afternoon inorder to seek The Lord and His righteousness and believe me all things shall be added unto these group of elites.

How can a Christian make God his or her number one priority? How do I go about seeking the kingdom of God first? I believe Matthew chapter five offers five powerful perspectives on how we can make the Lord our first priority.

1.fellowship before worship
2.spiritual before material
3.Purity before ministry
4.binding before loosing
5.inside before outside.
