“But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.” — Matthew 6:33

When Jesus tells us not to worry about food, drink, or clothing, He is reminding us that the Kingdom of God is not dependent on the world’s system. The Kingdom has its own supply.

It has a King — Jesus, the risen Lord who reigns with all authority.

It has a law — love, the fulfillment of everything God requires.

It has a food — communion, the bread and the cup that remind us of His broken body and shed blood, nourishing our spirits as often as we remember Him.

And it has the gifts of the Spirit — the power tools that equip us to move with wisdom, healing, discernment, prophecy, faith, and miracles (see 1 Corinthians 12:7–11). These gifts are not ornaments, they are demonstrations of the resurrected life of Jesus flowing through His people.

When we seek first His Kingdom, the result is not anxiety but assurance. Not scarcity but sufficiency. The fruit looks like righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost. That is the abundant life model — rooted in the eternal supply of the King, carried out through the Spirit, with no expiration date.

So today, instead of checking your bank account or scrolling for reassurance, check your Kingdom status. Are you walking in the law of love? Are you feeding on the Bread of Life? Are you leaning into the Spirit’s gifts He entrusted to you? If so, you are already equipped. Your supply is secure.

Living in an ungodly world using ungodly principles and hoping for a godly result ain’t it. The Kingdom has its own supply — and its own way.

Prayer

Father, thank You for reminding me that Your Kingdom has its own supply. I don’t have to live in fear or worry about what the world says I lack. Help me to walk in love, to feed daily on Christ, and to stir up the gifts of the Spirit within me. Let my life demonstrate the resurrected power of Jesus so others may see righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost. Keep me rooted in Kingdom principles and not worldly substitutes. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Faith in Action

• Take communion this week, remembering that your nourishment is eternal.
• Ask the Holy Spirit to stir up the gifts within you, and use one of them intentionally to bless someone.
• When worry rises, declare: “My supply is in the Kingdom. My passcode is Jesus. His gifts never expire.”
