Seek Ye First
"I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly." (John
10:10)..."Seek ye first the Kingdom of God, and His righteousness and all these things shall
be added unto you." (Matthew 6:33) God wants us to prosper...God wants us to have success .
. . His word not only says so . . . but tells us how . . . He instructs us..."Only be thou
strong and very courageous" "turn not to the right or to the left then shall thou have good
success." (Joshua 1:7) The world keeps pointing out the impossibilities... look only to God
He points the way to success...Whatever we ask the Father in Jesus' name, we
receive...because we keep His commandments... and this is His commandment, "That we should
believe on the name of His Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, as he gave us
commandment." (I John 3:23)...God wants us to prosper in every facet of our lives...even as
our soul prospers...are you lonely...in need of friends?...be a friend..."The Lord thy God
shall bless thee... Do you need a better job?..."The Lord thy God shall bless thee in all
thy increase and in all the work of thy hands." (Deuteronomy 16:15) You need help with your
finances?...God promises help...Give and it shall be given you." (Luke 6:38) Remember it is
the Lord thy God, He gives you power to get wealth (Deuteronomy 8:18)...In Isaiah 48:17 it
says, "I am the Lord thy God which teaches you to profit, who leads you the way that you
should go...It is not wrong to pray that that God would prosper you...David prayed thusly,
"Save now, I beseech thee, send now prosperity." (Psalm 118:25) Jabez prayed also for
prosperity...His prayer was..."O that Thou would bless me indeed, and enlarge my coast, and
that Thine hand might be with me
and that Thou would keep me from evil, that it might not grieve me (I Chronicles 4:10)...God
granted His request...God will grant yours.
