Seek ye first the kingdom of God

But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. (Mat 6:31-33)
God wants a relationship with us wherein we depend upon Him for everything. "Give us this day, our daily bread,"
Jesus says, "Seek first the kingdom of God, and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto you." In short, if you want God to add to you, "all these things," you have to seek first the kingdom – the kingdom contains, "all these things."

Now, if there is nothing else we see in this passage, we need to see that God is not merely talking about a, "trade off." No. He is talking about the Truth. "All these things," are IN and UNDER the kingdom. Thus, we if want, "all these things," you have to come under the kingdom. The two are not detached, but as one. Seek first the kingdom, and, "all these things," will come with the package.
There is a Truth in this passage that is, quite frankly, awesome. It is one that is impossibleto ignore if you want to continue walking with Jesus Christ. In one sentence, Jesus completely prioritizes true life in Christ. He says SEEK FIRST the kingdom of God. And He promises if we do, that God will take care of all else that we need.
The Right Basis
When a Christian tries to walk with God on the wrong basis, there will be confusion and other consequences. What do I mean by the WRONG basis? I mean that many of us try to walk with God, not in Spirit and Truth, but in flesh and error. Instead of walking with God in the light, we walk in darkness, and try to get God to join us. Instead of seeking to find the will of God, we try to get God to affirm our will. Instead of realizing God’s purpose is Christ, we make His purpose US. Instead of losing our lives to find them in Christ, we seek to save our lives for ourselves, and then try to get God to help us. Instead of walking in faith, we walk in unbelief. Maybe the most common wrong basis is this: That of our OWN righteousness. Christians by the thousands, in ways that they don’t even realize, try to walk with God on the basis of their own righteousness, instead of upon the righteousness of Christ. We walk under law instead of under grace. This command of Jesus to SEEK FIRST the kingdom is a case in point. If you read what Jesus is saying, He is giving us the priority for our living. Do you think it is optional? If Jesus says, "Seek first His kingdom….and all these things will be added," do we imagine that if we seek first, "all these things," that God is going to give them to us, and then somehow tack on the kingdom? What I’m saying is that if we violate scripture and the promises of God we are IN ERROR. God won’t join us. He is the Truth. The only way in which we can walk in these Truths is to believe and obey God
