Thought for the day
The scripture, Matthew 6:33 is often quoted in religious structures. This scripture says that we are to seek first His Kingdom and His righteousness and the rest will be added. However the emphasis is not on building “His Kingdom” but rather subtly and conveniently taking the emphasis off “His Kingdom” and they focus it on building “their Kingdom”.
From a personal perspective I can confirm this having been through this experience. My profession is that of an advocate and business owner and my natural propensity was to lean towards legalism and works. When I came to Christ I was very much into legalism and what I can do for God at the expense of a relationship with my Heavenly Father. I would quote all the scriptures but didn’t know the Author of the scriptures. However by God’s divine Grace I came to a place where the scales were pulled off my eyes which enabled me to truly understand that in relationship with Him lies true wisdom and revelation would come from the Living Word, which would open up the written Word as never before.
