GOD'S PLAN TO PROSPER YOU


 


"But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Matthew 6:33 (NIV)" 


God wants you to prosper, and He has a specific plan and method to ensure your success. This special way God has designed for your prosperity is clearly outlined in today’s verse. Let’s break it down: so let us break this verse down; 


1. What is the Kingdom of God?

The Kingdom of God is His rule over all creation, especially in the hearts of His people. Seeking the Kingdom means living according to God’s will, building a relationship with Him, and working to fulfill His purposes on earth.

The word "seek" implies deliberate and consistent effort. It’s not a one-time decision but a daily endeavor to prioritize God in every area of life. 


2. "And His Righteousness"

Righteousness is living a life that reflects God’s character and standards. It involves moral integrity, obedience to His commandments, and living by faith. 


3. "And All These Things Will Be Added to You"

“All these things” refer to the basic needs of life: food, drink, and clothing (Matthew 6:31-32). Jesus assures you if you prioritize God, He will ensure your physical needs are met. 


What You Need to Do: 


1. Give God Priority in Your Daily Life

Start each day with prayer, Bible reading, and seeking His guidance for your plans. Make decisions aligned with God’s priorities—love, justice, mercy, and humility. 


2. Trust God’s Provision

Let go of worries about your physical needs and trust in God’s faithfulness. Cultivate gratitude for the blessings you already have. 


3. Live a Righteous Life

Examine your actions and decisions to ensure they align with God’s Word. Pursue holiness by relying on the Holy Spirit for guidance and strength. 


4. Focus on Eternal Life

Instead of chasing temporary wealth or worldly success, invest in spiritual growth and serving others. Share the Gospel and actively work to advance God’s Kingdom on earth. 


When you do these things, God will bless the work of your hands. Even if you currently have nothing, He will provide opportunities for you to prosper. You will experience financial success and, ultimately, inherit the Kingdom of God. 


Prayer: Thank you, God, for Your blessings and the wonderful plan You have to prosper me. Enable me to follow Your instructions faithfully. Amen.

Are You With The Right People?

Pursue righteous living…Enjoy the companionship of those who call on the Lord with pure hearts.” 2 Timothy 2:22   If you want to be in God’s will and experience His blessings, you have to be around the right people. The people who are right for you are the people who will be honest with you. They don’t just tell you what you want to hear, but they tell you what you need to hear. “Faithful are the wounds of a friend.” (Proverbs 27:6). Good friends are not afraid to confront you.   Get around the right people because everybody who comes into your life brings a spirit. Sometimes, it is easy to gravitate to people we can relate to and who are similar to us. But the problem with that is, if you both share the same weaknesses, you will not grow in that area. You need to get around someone who is strong in the areas where you are weak. They know how to help get you to where you want to be.   In 2 Chronicles 10, Rehoboam had just been appointed king. Some of the leaders o...

How Are Your Management Skills? (Part 1)

  “His master replied, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master’s happiness!’” Matthew 25:21   The way you manage your money will determine how much God will trust you with it. In Matthew 25, a wealthy man entrusted his finances to some of his servants. He gave them each certain amounts, and when he returned, he found that some had used the money to make more money, but one servant had just hidden his in the ground. The master (who represents God) was very unhappy with this servant and called him “lazy and wicked” and even took away the little he had been entrusted with.   The master was happy with the others because no matter the amount they had been entrusted with, they used what was given to them and increased it. The servant, who was given only one bag of gold, made the decision to bury it. God expects you to use what He has given you to be a productive person. ...

Choose love over judgment

"I do not set aside the grace of God; for if righteousness comes through the law, then Christ died in vain.” Galatians 2:21 NKJV   The message today is clear and very brief. God reminds us that our righteousness is not attained through our actions but by faith in Jesus Christ. If our righteousness is obtained by faith and not by deeds, why do we judge each other? Why do we point fingers? Why do we gossip? The mouths of Christians have become very quick to judge others when they make mistakes. Let's not judge others, especially when they make mistakes. Remember that the weaknesses you judge in others, you also have, and often yours are worse than those you judge. The word of God says, "Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. Matthew 7:1-2."   Secondly, let's not consider ourselves righteous and better than others. The word of God says, "for all...
