Seeking First

God first! Always remember that! Not a move without You is a good slogan. (I:20)
Its those seemingly small disobediences that the superficial eye can barely distinguish as such, that cause the greatest
pain and damage sometimes: Esaus mess of pottage for a birthright, Sauls sparing of the Amalekite... The burying of the
talent... It all comes down to the one great commandment. For if they would have loved Me with all their hearts, they
wouldnt have obeyed half-heartedly; they would have carried out My instructions to the full.
Full faith, love and trust means being afraid to make a move without Me.
I should always be your first and foremost focus point of communication! Without Me you could make a mess of things.
(I:21)

Your top priorities are the great commandment to love the Lord, thy God with all thy heart and soul and mind, the
second, which is like unto the first: to love thy neighbor as thyself, really also fulfilling the first one, as you show your
love for Me by your obedience, and by loving the least of these, My brethren through your prayers or bringing them My
Word, youre also loving Me. (I:25)
My fellowship with you is more important for you than anyone elses.
By this shall all men know that you are My disciple if We have love one for another! Show them that you love Me! (I:28)
if the Devil cant stop you, hell try to slow you down, and hell do that by tempting you with things that are not My best
and highest will for you for the moment, but that which I call his second best! (I:35)
Be one of My seekers - not for answers or fulfillments, for you have found the answers - a seeker for My lost sheep to give
My answers to, and in this highest of all callings, find the greatest fulfillment of all! (I:78)
Only those who truly cast themselves entirely upon Me and My mercy and fully realize that anything good about them is
nothing of their own merit, only those who truly strive to prefer others above themselves, and only those who are willing
to put their own desires on the backburner in order to put Me first, only those find in Me the power to overcome him, the
great tempter, the great lover of self. (I:93)
Your life is going to start going uphill if you start seeking Me first thing everyday, truly putting Me first on a daily basis
and including Me in everything you do. (I:298)
It pays to do everything you possibly can to keep Me first place, even if its not easy, even if its a fight, even if it costs a
lot. The first-class ticket might cost a lot more than a cheap last-minute flight, but it compensates the extra cost by many
blessings: the assurance of My company, guidance, blessing and that youre in My perfect will... (I:370)
As you learn to treasure these Words of Mine and our times together above all else, and as you learn to find greater
satisfaction in these things of the Spirit, you will also grow in the ability to seek My Kingdom first, which will result in
greater obedience, thus greater blessings, and greater fruitfulness. (I:420)
I'm trying to get you to seek first My Kingdom instead of being too preoccupied with the supply of your needs. I simply
want you to put your trust in Me and know that all these things shall be added unto you, as I have promised, if you put Me
and My Kingdom first. (I:435)
It's time to seek first My Kingdom and righteousness and to truly trust that in so doing you'll find that I will fulfill My
promises to you and supply all your needs. (I:437)
Seek ye first My Kingdom - that's what I call righteousness - and all these things shall be added unto you! (I:498)
If you can't clearly see the road ahead of you, then that is so that you will seek Me more.
Life can really be thrilling and exciting if you seek Me and focus on Me in all things. (I:507)
Constantly seek Me as to how I want you to invest the time I have given you! (I:509)
Seeking Me about, and refusing to accept your own thoughts on a matter, but rather Mine, that's such a good sign of
progress! (I:513)
Is your priority the pursuit of your own, personal plans, or even the welfare of your own flesh and blood family, or
whatever you think is obvious that you should do? Or are you going to seek that which is Mine, namely My Kingdom, My
lost sheep, and My little dog trail, the hidden path of the Holy Ghost, that only those find who seek Me with their whole
hearts? (I:527)
People are a large part of what My Kingdom consists of, and by seeking first the Kingdom, you're actually putting your

priorities on people. (I:597)

Invest your time, energy and resources, your lives, into My Kingdom! (II:2)
I will bless it - financially and in every other way - if you put Me and My work first and make sure you're doing My job of
being a missionary. (II:250)
The more you fall back into the gear of the fleshly methods of support, the less emphasis you will put on My vision for
you, of truly putting My Kingdom and My sheep first in your life! (II:273)
Put Me first and keep Me in that first place! (II:299)
If you do take the time and trust Me that I will fulfill My Promise of Matthew 6:33 to you, you won't be disappointed. (II:306)
With increased intensity of stress, activity and pressure, you've got to increase the intensity with which you seek Me.
(II:325)

I make you see the Goal so that you will seek ways to get there. (II:328)
Keep seeking first the Kingdom! Don't put "all these other things," the concerns of life, "what shall we eat, what shall we
drink, wherewithal shall we be clothed" first and make them your primary concern! That's the short-sightedness and
foolishness of unbelievers, those who lacked the faith necessary to inherit the Kingdom. They despised the Kingdom and
the birthright, the title to the throne for a mess of pottage. They're still sons, but not the heirs of the Promise and
blessing. (II:344)
A strong personality and character values are more important than accumulating and clinging to things of the past, and,
in fact, they are shaped by the very ability to let go of these things, because this proves that you're not clinging to
temporary crutches, but the most important factor in anyone's life: their relationship with their Creator. (2012:11)
Never before has there been a time when it was less appropriate to try to give Me second place in your life behind
anything else. (2012:13)
Your desire to please has usually been more centered on pleasing others than on pleasing Me. This dead end street,
illustrating where that leads, and the futility of it, is instrumental in helping you get the point that it really does pay off
better to try and please Me instead. Because, as a matter of fact, Im not nearly as hard to please, for one thing, as most
folks are, and a lot more tolerant of your quirks, able to put up a lot better with any of your flaws, and much more able to
accept you as a whole, than anyone in your similar frame. (2012:163)
Youre responsible for restoring credit to Whom it is due, and thats why I need you to keep Me in the first place in your
life. (2012:183)
All depends on the extent to which You cling to Me, cherish Me and give Me first place. If you put other things before Me,
its no wonder youll wind up depressed, because they will always do what they are prone to, and that is disappoint and
leave you dissatisfied in the long run. (2013:42)
If youre not feeling as close to Me, maybe its not necessarily on My account, but you just happened to let Me slip from
your mind in all your feverish attempts to please your crowds And thats not exactly what one could call giving Me first
place, is it?
So, try to keep Me on your mind a bit more in all you do, and see what itll do for you. (2013:43)
I want to make this thing weve got going dependent on no one else but you and Me. Nobody else is supposed to be able
to interfere with your faith and what weve got here. I want you to realize that its the one lasting and reliable component
in your life, the rock youll always be able to stand on even when all other ground has turned to sinking sand!
Its not without a reason that I keep emphasizing the importance of giving Me first place in your life. Unless you realize
that Im the most important Factor in it, and you keep putting your trust, your hopes and affections on other things, things
will just continue to haywire.
Whenever you give greater importance to another factor than Me it creates an imbalance that will hinder things from
working out as smoothly as they ought to. Its just not the proper order, the way things were ordained to be, and when the
laws of the Spirit are being violated it creates repercussions similar to those that happen when you break the law in the
physical world.
So, its all basically a matter of emphasis and priority. Unless Im given the right amount of importance in your life and the
due respect as the paramount Subject, there will be problems, because things simply wont work properly if the laws of
the Spirit are being violated. (2013:55)
Make Me your priority, and I will show you the true priorities, the truly most important things and cornerstones of the
universe and all things living and beyond.
Look Up and ahead, forward to whats before you and awaiting you, not down below, at the messy abyss Im calling you

out of and trying to get you to emerge from! (2013:97)

If you put things before Me, you turn into something else, something or someone you wouldnt wanna be. The only One
Who can help you turn out the way anyone including yourself would want you to is I. (2013:99)
Caring more about this world and what you can or think you should get out of it, doesnt exactly show that you put My
Kingdom first, or prepare for the Hereafter (2014:9)
Really try and put Me first and do whatever you can to remember My will for your life and make the most and best of it
(2014:18)

Some situations simply are meant to get you to trust Me more, seek Me more and put a greater emphasis on that
Some things are reminders to put Me in the first and top place of your mind reminders not to neglect Me! Perhaps
because youve been thinking other things were more important (2014:41)
Make different things more important, like prayer and communication with Me
Try to send out a bit more of My message, try to give out a little more of My Love!
Try to make it with Me living with Me and communicating with and receiving of Me!
Try to let those things of worldly importance go down a bit! Actually, as far down as possible! And recognize the spiritual
things of the kind I give you as the more important! Stick to the truth the kind that I gave you and to others!
Accept Me as the One you ought to fully communicate with if you want to get the best and most worthy parts of life!
(2014:69)

I want you to make Me your first Love, which isnt always easy, and why the enemy tries to make the world so full of
temptations.
Its a difficult world, and the enemy tries to distract people from their attention to Me by faith. (2014:70)
When things flow easily and pleasantly, its usually a bit harder to give Me more of your attention and the first part of your
heart. But when your life is becoming quite different in some aspects, you might be learning how to put Me in the first
place possibly because you might also need Me and My help more than your own abilities. (2014:90)
Things are hard and tough and difficult, but let this be the way youll learn to count on Me more, rely more on Me, and
thus give Me a place and position of greater importance and significance in your life. (2014:91)
Just try to keep Me first in your heart, life and on your mind somehow not so much what you think youd prefer. Putting
others than yourself above you in your heart, especially your wife and children, as well as your Saviour, thats pretty
much something worth trying. (2014:116)
Just try to remember to put Me first, and not any of the other things you sometimes get close to nearly worship
Remember it doesnt have many good credits and rewards to put other things before and above Me and the Father to
just about worship It will always turn out to pay off much more in the end if you manage to keep Us in the first place of
your heart! (2014:131)
When you dont know what the future will be like, it makes you just have trust in Me it causes you to search more for Me
and My help and not lean so much on your own strength. (2014:147)
Whats the meaning of life for you? Serving Me and seeking your Creator and His Kingdom first, or doing the same
everyone else does, and basically serving materialism, along with the lusts of the flesh? (2014:154)
Remember to keep Me in the first place, and serving Me by getting out My message to others as your principal job and
task in the world! Remember to put Me first! Above money or pleasure, or other things that seem important to you!
While youre still down there on Earth, try to keep giving Me the first place of your importance, and thats how youll keep
receiving My strength, help and blessings! (2014:155)
Just try to seek first My Kingdom, not any of your own glories in the world! (2014:156)
Food and clothing will be added to you when you seek first Gods Kingdom, instead of what most people think they need:
that money made of paper and coins thats pretty much the stuff most folks in the world are the most active for (2014:157)
Look Up ahead and seek first the Kingdom, instead of success there and now, which will only be temporal, anyway.
(2014:159)

Seeking first My Kingdom means, investing your life in Heaven, the eternal Hereafter, and nothing of that is gonna be lost,
so, definitely much more worth it all your efforts and all you put into it.
So, its time to stop investing all your efforts in the there and now (which will fade and be lost) and into the Kingdom
Hereafter, instead. (2014:164)

I know the world has many distracting and disturbing effects on you right now, but that ought to teach you to hang on to
Me some more and seek Me first, give Me the major part and respect in your life. (2014:178)
Sometimes ones got to decide whom they choose to love more: their physical marriage partner, or Me, your spiritual and
eternal Husband. I know, its not always easy, but something to get used to, eventually. Whos taking the first place in
your life?
With the way things are going in your life and this world, youd just better get used to putting Me at the top of your list. It
might wind up saving all your lives, eventually. Just trust Me, that its more important to put Me at the top of your list and
make Me the One you need the most!
Strengthen your connection with Me, and give it the first place in your heart. Youll find out in the end that this way youll
also wind up having more love for the others.
Put first what belongs first! I know its not that easy, but still, the best you can do.
So, youre alright with putting Me first? Just check it out and see if it wont improve all your relationships! Just dont
forget Who its important to put first!
With the way things are going in your life and this world, youd just better get used to putting Me at the top of your list. It
might wind up saving all your lives, eventually. (2015:41)
Its a toughie to keep Me in the first place in your life and of your attention. But trust Me that its really worth it making the
effort of getting there!
Keep Me in the first place of your attention, and youll take notice of the positive difference itll make! (2015:45)
Make that effort to keep Me in the first place of your heart and life, and you wont regret it!
Remember that putting Me and the Father first in life was one of the main and major rules? (2015:48)
Getting your trust in Me to build up is a victory, and it also helps you to put Me and the Father first in your life, your mind
and heart, and thus keeping first Our Kingdom, instead of the things around you in the world you currently still live in.
(2015:50)

Value whats to come, above what youre passing through right now, and keep putting and seeking It first!
Remember seek ye first the Kingdom of God (Mt.6:33)!
Seek It first, and you wont regret it! Better to be in tune with Up Here than whats down there. The difference between
them is overwhelming; trust Me!
If you just make a serious effort to keep Our Kingdom on the first place in your heart and mind, you wont regret it, but itll
make a Heaven of a difference to your attitude and the state of your heart and whole being! Theres a good reason why
you ought to keep your mind and heart in this direction Up Here! (2015:84)
In order to enjoy Heaven, youll have to get your mind out of this world. Seek first My Kingdom of Heaven, and get your
mind off of whats all around you as much as you can (2015:88)
Just realize its not your own strength, nor your own abilities to see you through, but your dependence on the Power from
Above! It includes having to put Me in the first place in your life, and just remaining humble, and full of gratitude for
anything I manage to accomplish through you. (2015:132)
Seek ye first the Kingdom of God, and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto you (Mt.6:33) means,
the right actions and behavior will result in the right kind of blessings, accordingly. (2015:148)
Putting Me first is an action for special folks and people, who are not that soaked up by the materialistic gear the enemy
has pretty much gotten the world into (2015:247)
Seek Me everyday! (2016:62)
