Daily Devotion:
"Seek and All These Things Will Be Added"
Luke 12:19-31
(ESV)
29 And do not seek what you are to eat and what you are to drink, nor be worried. 30 For all the nations of the world seek after these things, and your Father knows that you need them. 31 Instead, seek his kingdom, and these things will be added to you.
We don’t have to do without when we choose to pursue the Lord. Far from it! Promises of abundance fill God’s Word from Genesis to Revelation. And Scripture teaches that if we give freely of our blessings instead of clinging to them, we’ll gain far more. Jesus assured us that this type of generosity would result in “a good measure” being
poured into our lap, “pressed down, shaken together, and running over” (Luke 6:38).
Spend some time in prayer today and ask the Lord to show you the better things He wants you to pursue.
