T.O.D.A.Y.'S ENCOURAGEMENT for Sept.16th, 2002 T.O.D.A.Y.
Ministries I am going to continue to answer the requests that I have had to "re-share" some of the earlier Encouragements. If you have something that you want me to talk about again, just let me know. In the sixth chapter of Matthew, Jesus gave us some very simple instructions. None of them are hard to understand, and they are not hard to do. In fact, in verse 33, He even tells us what to do "first"! Some of you may not be familiar with this scripture, but even if you are, we are going to look at it again. All of us, including myself, need to be reminded from time to time about the simplicity of the Word of God. So, Matthew 6:33 says, "Seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness and all these things shall be added unto you." These "things" are the necessities of life (read the previous scriptures), and notice the word "added". God is all about "adding and multiplying", not "subtracting and dividing". He has always wanted INCREASE for His people! The word SEEK in this scripture, means to: "aim at"..... as in, aiming an arrow at a target. It means to make it your goal, it means to "focus on" the Kingdom of God. Tomorrow, I will expound on what the Kingdom of God is, and this will put a practical perspective on this scripture and how we can apply it to our daily lives. Have a Blessed Day!! In His Love, Luanne We welcome your comments and prayer requests.
