Making God's Will Number One


DAY TWENTY

Making God’s Will Number One - Matthew 6:33 33But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.

We must make God’s will the number one priority of our lives. How do we do this?

  • Serving Him instead of “mammon” (material wealth or greed).
  • Focusing on that which is good, true and righteous.
  • Using earthly treasurers to help other people.

God wants to provide for our physical needs.

  • He is able and willing.

Tomorrow will take care of itself.

  • Realistically we only have enough energy to deal with today’s issues.
  • We have no control over tomorrow or the future for that matter.
  • Worrying about it will only distract us from today’s obligations.
  • Believe me…tomorrow will still be there.

How do I make God's will number one?

  1. Develop a sturdy spiritual life.
  2. Surrender you will entirely.
  3. Be sensitive to the Holy Spirit’s leading.
  4. Follow the Scriptures.
  5. Trust God’s providence in every situation.
  6. Seek Godly advice from wise people.
