Seeking First

Stable Christians all demonstrate certain characteristics. They have God’s Word as a priority in their lives. Their thoughts are focused on the person of Jesus Christ. They live their lives for the purpose of glorifying God. They also know great peace because they have confidence in their God.

Another characteristic of a stable Christian is that they are persistent. Jesus said that we are to seek first God’s kingdom and His righteousness. The stable Christian is one who faithfully, persistently obeys this command.

To seek God’s kingdom is to pour ourselves into things of eternal consequence. The stable Christian doesn’t get hung up by the trivial.

To seek God’s righteousness is to hunger and thirst for holiness, godliness, and Christlikeness.
The stable Christian will persistently seek these things even in the face of opposition. And the stable Christian pursues these spiritual priorities trusting that God will provide everything else that’s needed along the way.
