Matthew 6:33
""But seek first the Kingdom of God and HIS righteousness""""
Reader,
Let's say that you want to teach Sunday School, or do.....or lets say that you have led someone to Christ recently, and they ask your..... ""what does this verse mean"". ???
So, here is the simple theology..
Let me break it down 4U, so that it feels like a lesson.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1.) First you discover what the KINGDOM of GOD, actually is... as you are to SEEK IT.
Its this.....> Romans 14.. ""For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost."""
And where is it?
Well, its 2 places. Its where God exists, and its where the born again are recreated as "New Creations" to exist spiritually within... it....and it in them.
So, when you read that you are 'in Christ", and "ONE with GOD", having become a "new creation"... and then you read that you are "Translated FROM darkness, ... TO Light"..
See all that? That is the born again spirit >becoming< joined in Spiritual union with God, and existing where God exists.....And that explains this verse....> the born again are : "seated in heavenly placed IN Christ"..
And where is Christ? He's in HEAVEN.........so, see? Its all the same.
And that explains this verse....>"As Jesus IS.... so are the born again, in THIS World"....
2.) And here is what is even more remarkable....."Christ in you".....and you having become "the temple of the holy Spirit"....... which proves this verse.. Luke 17:21. Jesus teaching.. "" Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.""""
So, the KOG is where God exists, and because God and Christ and the Holy Spirit are in all the born again....then the KOG is within them all., and that is why we are the " BODY of Christ".
Thats very interesting, isn't it?
3.) Now, here is the 2nd part you can teach them... the verse says.. You are to seek HIS Righteousness.
See that?
"HIS" "Righteousness"....
Now why do 99% of believers not do this at all, yet they think they do,....but they dont?
Its because they are not seeking HIS Righteousness....they are seeking works, and deeds, and law, and commandments.
See those? Those are not God's "Righteousness".
The verse says to seek "HIS Righteousness".....and that is JESUS, reader.
God's righteousness, is not the law and commandments.
God's righteousness is..."The righteousness of GOD"..."in Christ".
See that?
Are you born again? Then you are to seek = "HIS Righteousness".....not yours. Not the Law. Not the Commandments.
But GOD's Righteousness.....you are to seek, and God's righteousness, is "the gift of Salvation",.. and "The Gift of Righteousness".
God's righteousness, is JESUS.
God's righteousness, is TRUTH.... and Jesus said...>"I am THE Truth."" John 14:6
4.) So, to seek the Kingdom of GOD, is: A.) = to seek becoming a part of it....= born again.
And to seek God's righteousness, is to seek B.) "the Gift of Salvation"... "The Gift of Righteousness"....and the "TRUTH"< who is JESUS Himself.
Look at this verse..>"work out your Salvation".......see that? That is "seek HIS Righteousness"..
They are the same thing...exactly.
Listen..
Are you not enjoying you walk with God?
Are you finding that you dont have any victory, or can't keep it going?
Are you sinning and confessing a lot?
Is your prayer time, dull, feels like work, and you have no praise in your heart?
Its because you are not seeking God correctly., as i just explained.
God help you to see and do it, and you will be amazed at the results.
