Priorities in Life!

Jesus said "Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need (Matt 6v33)

What are the absolute Priorities that reflect our absolute sellout to the Kingdom of God

1. Obedience to God - Anyone who Obeys God's laws and teaches them will be called great in the Kingdom of heaven (Matt5:19)

2. Love - But I say, love your enemies!... If you love only those who love you, what reward is there for that (Matt5:44,46)

3. Justice - God blesses those who hunger and thirst for justice, for they will be satisfied (Matt5:6)

4. Peace - God blesses those who work for peace (Matt 5:9)

5. Holy Living - Let your good deeds shine out for all to see, so that everyone will praise your heavenly Father (Matt 5:16)

6. Integrity - Just say a simple, 'Yes I Will' or "No, I won't" (Matt 5:37)

7. Generosity - When you give to someone in need.... give your gifts in private and your Father, who sees everything, will reward you (Matt 6:2,4)

8. Spiritual Connection - You must worship the Lord your God and serve only Him (Matt 4:10)

9. Spiritual Wholeness - Is anything worth more than your soul? (Matt 16:26)

10. Biblical Literacy - Haven't you read the scriptures?.. Your mistake is that you don't know the scriptures (Matt 19:4, 22:29)

11. Faith in God - Because of your faith, it will happen....... You don't have enough faith...... If you had faith even as small as a mustard seed....... nothing would be impossible...... But with God, everything is possible. (Matt 9:29, 17:20, 19:26)

12. Blessing People - Jesus not only regularly taught this, but his constant healing of, training and praying for others demonstrated how to bless.

13. Disciple Making - Therefore go and make disciples of all nations (Matt 28:19)

Now that's a LIFE agenda worth dying for......
