Today’s Verse
The Lord Jesus said, “But seek you first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added to you.”
– Matthew 6:33
Great disasters have already begun, and the prophecies of the Lord’s return have been fulfilled. What should we pursue that holds value and meaning, and enables us to find God’s protection amidst great calamities? Read the following content, and you will find the answer.
The Lord Jesus said, “But seek you first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added to you” (Matthew 6:33). This is the teaching and requirement of Jesus for those who believe in Him. He urges us not to pursue the materialistic indulgences of the flesh, but rather to seek the truth, the kingdom of God, and His righteousness. This pursuit leads us to receive God’s salvation, survive in the end and enter His kingdom. From this statement, we can also sense the love and concern that Jesus has for us. He knows that we live in this evil world, under the power of Satan, where people chase after wealth and fleshly pleasures, indulging in sinful pleasures. If we continue on this path, we will only be devoured by Satan, losing the opportunity to be saved by God. Just as the Lord Jesus said, “For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?” (Mark 8:36). In fact, through this statement, Jesus is reminding us not to be burdened by worldly worries, but to prioritize God in our lives. When we truly seek the truth, and pursue life and salvation by God, He will not let us go hungry or unclothed. God will take care of us and provide us with everything we need. Especially in the present time, as the great disaster has already begun and signs of the end times are emerging, we are facing the most perilous days. If our hearts are still entangled in worldly pursuits, chasing after wealth and seeking carnal pleasures, we can only imagine the consequences that await us. God says, “Awaken, brothers! Awaken, sisters! My day will not be delayed; time is life, and to seize back time is to save life! The time is not far off! If you fail the college entrance examination, you can study and retake it as many times as you like. However, My day will brook no further delay. Remember! Remember! I urge you with these good words. The end of the world unfolds before your very eyes, and great disasters rapidly draw near. Which is more important: your life, or your sleep, your food and drink and clothing? The time has come for you to weigh these things. Be doubtful no longer, and do not shy away from certainty!” “How pitiful! How poor! How blind! How cruel mankind is! Indeed, you turn a deaf ear to My word—am I speaking to you in vain? You are still so remiss—why? Why is that? Have you really never had such a thought? For whom do I say these things? Believe in Me! I am your Savior! I am your Almighty One! Keep watch! Keep watch! Time lost will never come again—remember this! There is no medicine in the world that cures regret! So, how should I speak to you? Is My word not worthy of your careful, repeated consideration? You are so careless with My word and so irresponsible with your life; how could I bear it? How could I?”
