Andrew Phillips-6/7/26-Seek ye First

Thank you for listening to this episode. We pray it blesses you in Jesus name. Check out our website for more information about our church

Sometimes it doesn't happen all at once—but over time, God can slip from first place in our lives. Episode 4 in the Kingdom First Series gently helps you recognize the signs and invites you back to a place of closeness with Him.

A look at Matthew 6:33. Are we really putting God first in everything, or do we just think we are?

(This podcast was previously published on April 21, 2021)   Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ...   When we are born again, changed by God, we are very different from the way we had been before.  Often we no longer enjoy the people or things we once enjoyed.  Usually we want to read the Bible and go to church to hear about God.   Now we seek God and His righteousness, what is right in the sight of God.   And this is our interest as long as God chooses to leave us on this present earth.   Here is a promise from God:   Psalm 84:11   For the LORD God is a sun and shield: the LORD will give grace and glory: no good thing will HE withhold from them that walk uprightly.   We go forward renewing our mind to the Bible, seeing the way God chooses for us to live, and we do those scriptures, growing in the image of Christ the Word.   God is our "sun" by HIS Spirit who brings to our mind the way to go.  God is also a shield, keeping us from things that would harm us.   And we find, in time, God has placed around us those good things which we can enjoy.   All we do is keep following various scriptures as they are given to us by the Holy Spirit, thus staying on God's highway.   *****   One of the things I enjoy most in this life is my sound system.  I love the sound effects of hearing a door open on the right of the TV.  Or hearing the clang of the old time elevator doors when they are closed.  I seem to hear all the sound effects in movies.  I like the sound of musical instruments to duplicate the clarity of the real instrument.   Along the way, some very good quality sound equipment came into my life.  God just enabled me to meet people who could help me develop a system.   I very much wanted to marry.  But to marry would not fit in with that which God planned for me to do on this earth.  Eventually I saw "that" and agreed with God.   Recently I saw an old 1948 movie, "The egg and I".  I thought it was a terrible movie but I was also helped immensely by seeing that movie.  I saw how terrible it would have been if I had actually married Buddy.  He is a farm and ranch person.   God is a shield for us.  Sometimes God keeps us from getting that which we want, and like a little child we have temper tantrums because God, The Father, did not let us have that. Later we rejoice that we didn't get what we wanted.  And we thank God for keeping us from getting that.   But when it is good for us to have that thing, God will see that it comes to us.   We just continue in HIS Word.   It is not that we are trying to get things by doing God's commandments.  We do God's word because we have a respect for God and know HIS way is right and best for us.

In this convicting installment of the "Kingdom Now" series on the Sermon on the Mount, Pastor Karl tackles the final section of Matthew 6, where Jesus confronts the disciple's battle with excessive worry.Jesus commands, “Do not be anxious about your life,” addressing our deepest fears over sustenance, health, and material security. Pastor Karl explains that worry is not a personality trait but a discipleship issue—a lack of trust that we are our own ultimate provider. He notes the physical and emotional toll of chronic anxiety, while research shows most worries never materialize and the rest prove less devastating than feared.Drawing from Jesus' illustrations of birds (who labor diligently yet trust God's care) and lilies (clothed more gloriously than Solomon), Pastor Karl clarifies: diligent work and planning are biblical, but anxiety over provision is not. Worry accomplishes nothing and robs us of life.The solution is radical: “Seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.” Jesus calls disciples to dethrone worry by enthroning God's kingdom as the supreme priority—surpassing personal agendas, comfort, and even life itself. When the eternal kingdom becomes our greatest passion, God faithfully supplies what we truly need.Echoing Abraham's trust over Lot's worldly pursuit, Pastor Karl challenges listeners: Will we choose altars over assets, surrendering our plans to God's will? True freedom from worry comes not from trying harder to stop, but from wholehearted devotion to the King and His kingdom.A powerful, grace-filled invitation to examine our priorities, replace anxiety with kingdom passion, and live as trusting disciples who reflect their generous, faithful Father.Watch all our sermons on our youtube channel "Flipside Christian Church"Join us in person 9:00am & 10:30am every Sunday morning.37193 Ave 12 #3h, Madera, CA 93636For more visit us at flipside.churchFor more podcasts visit flipsidepodcasts.transistor.fm

As we enter 2026, let us remember that the Scriptures call us to put God first. In a new year filled with unknowns and uncertainties, Christ reminds us to seek the kingdom of God above all else, trusting that our heavenly Father knows our needs and will provide in His perfect will. The post Seek Ye First appeared first on Preachers Corner.

Kingdom First - Part 1

Matthew 6:33But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.(NKJV)

Gem Of the Day (G.O.D.) about putting the Kingdom of God before yourself

Seek first the kingdom of God and it's righteousness and all things shall be added unto you. Matthew 6:33. I have found this to be true. Once I lock into knowing God and following Him. Things just fall into place. My struggle is over .. He becomes the burden bearer, the counselor, my driver, compass, my everything.

What are the things we are striving for but that not giving us what we are hoping for?

Sermon delivered on Wednesday, September 3rd, 2025, at Serious Christian Church in Cape Town, South Africa

A well-known verse is “Seek Ye First” the kingdom of God and other “things” will be added to you. When this was written, the things on the minds of the people were food, drink and clothing. These things are not really an issue for us today. So, what are the things today that might get …

Live in the Core Group -- Seek Ye First The Kingdom Of God To support this ministry: www.ToddCoconato.com/give Website: www.PastorTodd.org “But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.” 1. It Aligns Us with God's Priorities When we seek the Kingdom first, we're aligning our hearts with God's will, purposes, and timing. It shifts us from self-centered living to God-centered living. Matthew 6:10 (NKJV): “Your kingdom come. Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.” 2. It Brings Divine Provision God promises that if we put Him first, “all these things”—our needs—will be taken care of. We don't chase blessings—they follow Kingdom seekers. Philippians 4:19 (NKJV): “And my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.” 3. It Produces Peace in a Chaotic World Seeking the Kingdom replaces worry with worship. Instead of striving in anxiety, we rest in His reign. Isaiah 26:3 (NKJV): “You will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on You, because he trusts in You.” 4. It Cultivates Righteous Living When we seek His righteousness, we pursue right standing with God. This leads to a life of holiness, integrity, and transformation. Romans 14:17 (NKJV): “For the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.” 5. It Protects Us from Idolatry Putting God first keeps us from idolizing money, people, influence, or material things. It helps us worship the Creator, not creation. Exodus 20:3 (NKJV): “You shall have no other gods before Me.” 6. It Releases Kingdom Authority When we walk under God's rule, we walk in His authority and power. We become effective ambassadors for Christ on the earth. Luke 10:19 (NKJV): “Behold, I give you the authority... over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you.” 7. It Builds Eternal Perspective Seeking God's Kingdom reminds us that this world is temporary. It helps us store up treasures in heaven, not just on earth. Colossians 3:2 (NKJV): “Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth.” 8. It Invites Divine Order into Your Life Putting the Kingdom first sets everything else in its proper place. Our relationships, decisions, finances, and time all come into divine alignment. Proverbs 3:6 (NKJV): “In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths.” 9. It Demonstrates Trust and Surrender Seeking the Kingdom is a daily act of trust. It says, “God, I believe Your way is better than mine.” This pleases His heart. Hebrews 11:6 (NKJV): “But without faith it is impossible to please Him...” 10. It Positions You for Purpose God reveals your identity and calling as you seek His Kingdom. True purpose is found not in chasing dreams, but in pursuing the King and His Kingdom. Jeremiah 29:13 (NKJV): “And you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart.”

Seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be added unto you (Matthew 6:33). Glory to God!

Phil will conclude our Seek Ye First series with a message called Celebrate Our Stores. In this talk, Phil will take a look back at the fall and share some stories of how members at MRCC shined like stars in the sky.

Phil will deliver a sermon called Praying for Reign. In this message, he will take a deep dive into 1 Timothy 2:1-4, Paul's instructions to Timothy about how and why to pray for kings and those in authority. Phil will explore various principles in this passage and how they can inform us as we pray for leaders in our context.

Phil will continue our Seek Ye First series with a message titled, The Brilliance of the Church. In this message, Phil will explore the remarkable numbers behind the rise of the early church as well as the features of the church that made it so attractive to the outside world.

Phil will continue our Seek Ye First series with a message called Love Local. In this message, Phil will explore the dynamic between national events and local ones. While staying informed is important, it is equally important to engage in our immediate communal and church context and love our neighbor right where we are.

Pastor Rodney ministered powerfully in Part 3 of “Seek Ye First the Kingdom.” Impatience blocks heavenly increase! The number one attack of the enemy is the cares of this world. When you worry, that worry chokes out your ability to be fruitful! You must reject fear and worry, and keep your eyes on the Lord, for He is Lord of the harvest—YOUR harvest.

Pastor Rodney shared powerfully at The Main Event, "Seek Ye First the Kingdom Part 2." When your faith is tried, and you keep your eyes on past victories––you will overcome by the Blood of the Lamb and the word of your testimony.
