“Seek the kingdom of God, and
all these things shall be added to you.”
LUKE 12:31
Let
us seek first the Kingdom of God – not as an idea, or a doctrine, or a
theological position, but as a way of living! At least Paul could say,
“my speech
and my preaching were not with persuasive words of human wisdom, but in
demonstration of the Spirit and of power” (1 Corinthians 2:4). Is anyone
frustrated by the fact that all too often the only thing we have to
offer people in the name of Jesus are pretty words?
At
some point sermons and songs fail and something of the very Life and
power and glory and majesty of God must come forth to meet real,
practical needs. Healing the sick and casting out
devils was (and is) as much a part of the Kingdom of God as preaching
and teaching. Everyone we pray for is not instantly healed and
delivered, but let us pray for them anyway. We may not yet see all
things submitted to Him, but can we not at least expect to see some
things submitted to Him?
