SEEK FIRST THE KINGDOM

Matthew the Lord’s apostle has admonished and encouraged all who place their faith in Christ as saviour to ‘ go for the gold’ of God’s kingdom!

Math 6:33 – But seek first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. (kJV)

BUT SEEK

In the previous verses to verse 63 Our Lord Jesus had told us OF HOW NOT to be! Not to be like the unsaved who having only a temporary earthbound hope worry.   They are concerned only with earthly things.   Jesus told His followers not to be over concerned with earthly striving coming from a lack of faith……….

Mat 6: 25 to 32 –  That is why I tell you not to worry about everyday life—whether you have enough food and drink, or enough clothes to wear. Isn’t life more than food, and your body more than clothing? 26 Look at the birds. They don’t plant or harvest or store food in barns, for your heavenly Father feeds them. And aren’t you far more valuable to him than they are? 27 Can all your worries add a single moment to your life?

28“And why worry about your clothing? Look at the lilies of the field and how they grow. They don’t work or make their clothing, 29 yet Solomon in all his glory was not dressed as beautifully as they are. 30 And if God cares so wonderfully for wildflowers that are here today and thrown into the fire tomorrow, he will certainly care for you. Why do you have so little faith?

31“ So don’t worry about these things, saying, ‘What will we eat? What will we drink? What will we wear?’ 32 These things dominate the thoughts of unbelievers, but your heavenly Father already knows all your needs. (New Living Translation)

Jesus is saying to the kingdom seekers, “ Don’t worry and fret over earthly matters.   Have faith in the God who has a wonderful divine purpose for your lives.   You my disciples have more important business to employ your minds about, and have higher hopes to encourage you.

SEEK FIRST – AS PRIORITY

Therefore seek first — That is, in the first place, and with the greatest earnestness and concern, as being the principal things, the kingdom of God —as described in Paul’s letter to the Romans ….

 Rom 14: 17, 18 – The Kingdom of God is not a matter of what we eat or drink, but of living a life of goodness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit. 18If you serve Christ with this attitude, you will please God, and others will approve of you, too. (NLT)

When we first come to Jesus and are saved by putting our trust in him we receive God’s righteousness to cover our sin.   God counts us righteous ( good) and free from all condemnation.   The “ goodness and peace” mentioned in verse 17 is not that initial righteousness and peace with God that we receive with the new birth. Rather, It is the MORAL CONDITION of righteousness and the peace with our fellow men that follows as a result of the Spirit of God living in our hearts.  These are characteristics crowned in the confirmed Christian by the indwelling  presence in his heart of the Holy Spirit. God wants us to cooperate with the Holy Spirit in strengthening the effects of His goodness, peace and joy

The Urgency of This Hour

In Epesians 5: 16 we read these words from the lips of the apostle Paul. “Look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise but as wise, making the best use of the time, because the days are evil. ” The actual New Testament Greek language says that we should “redeem” the time. The idea is to reclaim something which could be lost; we must save time in view of the urgency of this hour in which we are living. It is an hour of world wide spiritual darkness. Jesus is returning soon for us and we only have one life  to live on earth.  One life to bring glory to God and to achieve His purposes.   Let’s remember that Satan  is always tempting us with distractions, trying to block our advance.  Must move forwards in Wisdom. The apostle Paul gives us the following exhortations  on how we should live as the redeemers of our time.

Be Wise For Jesus

The English Standard Version of the bible tells us “Look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise but as wise, My brother and sister in Christ, let’s be wise for Jesus.

The Curse Of Separation From God

Before we repented and placed our faith in Jesus as saviour we were spiritually dead . At this time we were under satan’s dominion and under the curse of separation from God.

Eph 2:1, 2 – you were dead in your trespasses and sins, 2in which you used to walk when you conformed to the ways of this world and of the ruler of the power of the air, the spirit who is now at work in the sons of disobedience.

Created In God’s Image

Gen 1:27 – So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them.

Mankind has a unique status in creation.  None of God’s other terrestrial creatures (though often very fascinating ) are said to have that unique status.  Being made in God’s image, mankind is destined to have a special relationship with Him. Man has  attributes such as rationality, morality, and the ability to have a relationship with God which sets him apart from all earthly created things. Man has a very special dignity and worth.

SCRIPTURE READING

Acts 9: 36 to 42 –

In Joppa there was a disciple named Tabitha (which is translated as Dorcas), who was occupied with works of kindness and charity. 37At that time, however, she became sick and died, and her body was washed and placed in an upper room. 38Since Lydda was near Joppa, the disciples, hearing that Peter was there, sent two men to urge him, “Come to us without delay.”

39So Peter got up and went with them. On his arrival, they took him to the upper room. All the widows stood around him, weeping and showing him the tunics and other clothing that Dorcas had made while she was still with them.

40Then Peter sent them all out of the room. He knelt down and prayed, and turning toward her body, he said, “Tabitha, get up!” She opened her eyes, and seeing Peter, she sat up. 41Peter took her by the hand and helped her up. Then he called the saints and widows and presented her to them alive.

42This became known all over Joppa, and many people believed in the Lord. 43And Peter stayed for several days in Joppa with a tanner named Simon.

Dorcas –  A Woman of Good Works

In Joppa there was a lady disciple of the Lord Jesus named Tabitha; her Greek name was Dorcas.  Dorcas was a woman who served God and was well known and  famous for her good works.  Joppa where she lived, is today known as Jaffa, an ancient port city on the Mediterranean Sea. It is one of the oldest functioning harbours in the world and  in early church times was historically significant as a gateway for trade and travel.  The city’s location made it a melting pot of cultures and a strategic location for the spread of the Gospel.

The Character of Tabitha

Her Christian faith was not only real, but eminent. She “was full of good works and alms deeds which she did.”  This precious lady had a real dynamic faith in Our Lord.  Some members of God’s household are truly and eternally saved – but in their service for the Lord they are satisfied with low and common attainments.

Dorcas “was full” — not just of hearing biblical sermons.   Not full of going to church and Christian conventions.    All these things are excellent, but without true faith and love they can be a mere “form of godliness.” Hers was the true dynamic faith of the heart and life.  A life so “ grafted into Christ” that abundant fruit always poured forth.

Dorcas Work

Dorcas being a woman who served God, was exceedingly charitable to ”Widows”.   She tried to make sure that the widows had adequate clothing.  God’s care for the widows and the fatherless is demonstrated in scripture often.  This may not be our “ particular service” for the Lord.  But brothers and sisters, let us always be “ ready to show mercy.   The apostle instructed his son in the faith Timothy,  to teach the disciples of Jesus to “do good, that they be rich in good works, ready to give, willing to share,”(1 Tim 6;18).

Dorcas did not just get the clothes made.  She made them herself.  That means here “ alms” were not only her gifts, but were also her deeds.  There are some who are willing to give but are not so eager to do anything.  My brothers and sisters, if God leads us deep into Christ, we may come to a place ( like the apostle Peter) who said “ “Silver and gold have I none”, (Acts 3:6).  

But especially in this ” poor” situation we can offer strong prayers of mountain moving faith.   May God grant us the gift of tears.  God will help us empathise with others in Jesus’ love.  And  LET US EARNESTLY SEEK SPIRITUAL GIFTS so that we can command in Jesus mighty Name, sicknesses, bondages, oppression, depression and other works of satan to be destroyed

The Untimely Death of Dorcas

Suddenly Dorcas died.  Peter was sent for and came. To some it may seem a useless thing to call Peter after she had actually died.  Perhaps at first Peter himself did not know that God would  at this time raise her from the dead. But anyway  Peter  knew it was his duty to Christ to be “ready to every good work”, (2 Titus 2:21).  

No doubt The Wonderful Jesus filled heart was full of the desire to comfort the weeping friends of Dorcas.  Peter also  knew that, “the things which are impossible with men are possible with God”.  He had seen his beloved Master intervene and brought life to many dead situations and persons!  

No sooner was Peter arrived than a scene was presented that was sufficient to melt a heart much less tender than Peter’s (ver. 39).  Though it is distressing, it is also very wonderful  to see genuine grief in a Christian heart.  Perhaps Peter can do more than “weep with them that weep” but Peter is manifesting that the supernatural love of Jesus Christ is flowing from his life!  

Dorcas Resurrection

But now, Peter heard in his spirit the will of God in this situation, was indeed to bring Dorcas back to life.  “He put them all forth”.  His heart was full of faith!   Those around him were not!  We need to beware who we join in prayer with.  Some Christiams will boost our faith as they pray with us – even though their words are few.  Others who make “ noises of faith” and speak many words may actually have little real faith and will “ dull “ the power of our prayers.

Peter prayed and Dorcas arose; and then Peter “gave her his hand, and lifted her up, and presented her alive.”   This is a wonderful end to a very sad story.   I believe that every Christian should have the knowledge that if God will, that Christian can utter the command to raise the dead!  God is a miracle working God!

Why,  as we pray, are not ALL healed?   Why are some of God’s most powerful faith filled persons taken to a premature death?  We can never know.   But let us remember that as one godly skilled Christian writer has said ………

….. He takes pleasure in those who, like Himself, delight in mercy; and that “He is not unrighteous to forget their work and labour of love, in ministering to the saints”? In a word, does He not say, “Them that honour Me, I will honour”? But you ask, was this a privilege to Dorcas? — to be brought back into a vale of tears, and again to have to “walk through the valley of the shadow of death,” after she had happily passed it? — I answer, Yes! It was a marvellous distinction conferred upon her; and it added to her usefulness as a woman who served God and added to her reward. The saints on earth have one privilege above the saints in heaven. It is in the means and opportunities of doing good.
