Romans 14:17
…the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.

If we are supposed to seek first the kingdom of God every
day (Matthew 6:33), then we should know what the kingdom
of God is in the first place. I used to think that the kingdom
of God was the mission fields and that to seek it meant
doing missionary work.

Then, I realized that the kingdom of God was not something
outside you flowing in—“the kingdom of God is not eating
and drinking”, but something inside you flowing out
—“righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit”.
So to seek first God’s kingdom means to make it a priority
every day to have your inner man flowing with
righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.

Righteousness is not your own righteousness based on
what you do. It is not good works. It is a gift from Jesus
who is your righteousness. (Romans 5:17; 1 Corinthians
1:30) God wants you to be established in the truth that you
are the righteousness of God in Christ. (2 Corinthians 5:21)
“Peace be with you” were the words that Jesus spoke to His
disciples when He appeared before them after His
resurrection. He also showed them His pierced hands and
side. (John 20:19–20) God wants you to know that His
Son’s finished work has given you peace. Your conscience
can be at rest because your sin debt has been settled. You
have peace with God and the peace of God.

Joy will come into your heart when you see Jesus in the
scriptures, worship songs or anointed preaching. It is the
same joy from the Holy Spirit which filled the disciples’
hearts when they saw Jesus, His hands and His side. (John
20:20)

So every day, make it a priority to see yourself righteous in
Christ. Don’t be conscious of your sins. Instead, be
conscious of your righteousness. And whether you are
reading your Bible or listening to anointed preaching, see
Jesus with His pierced hands and side, which speak of His
finished work. See all your sins forgiven, and you will flow
with peace and joy. When you do this, you are seeking the
kingdom of God!

Thought For The Day

To seek God’s kingdom is to have your inner man flowing with
righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.
