As believers and God’s children, there is nothing more desired by Him than for us to walk in the victory provided through His Son, Jesus.
However, often people aren’t experiencing this victory or provision that God has made a way for.
This may be because the majority of people have shifted away from making God the number one priority in their lives and hearts.
Matthew 6:33 urges us, “But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be added unto you.”
I believe Christians, and people in general, have grown somewhat impatient with God.
We have needs and wants in our lives, and instead of continuing to seek God and live out the righteous life He has called us to, we become impatient and prioritize our own wants and needs.
While waiting, we must remind ourselves to maintain faith. Waiting is an opportunity for faith and patience to flourish, during which we must rely on and trust in God.
The simplest way to trust and rely on God is by reminding ourselves of His goodness.
From the beginning, God made provision for humanity.
He created the heavens and the earth and everything in them before making man. Why? Because God wanted to ensure our care before creating us.
We must remind ourselves that we have a relationship with an all-knowing, loving, compassionate, and generous Father who desires nothing more than for His children to be cared for, to the extent that He even grants us the desires of our hearts.
However, God wants us to prioritize Him in our hearts. Not the things and desires that fight for first place within us.
When we seek Him, obey Him, and love Him, He delights in blessing us and providing for us.
So, remember, prioritize God first this week!
