Seek yee first protocol

“But seek ye first the Kingdom of God, and His righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.”

(Matthew 6:33)

It is your ability to search that causes you to find. He who searches is in need of something, and that “something” you seek in is the Lord that can truly satisfy, if you seek something else and still feel a void on your inside.

You will realize that many people, before they encounter God, seek communion. They know that the world is controlled by a Supreme Being, but they have not yet found Him. I want to tell you today that the peace you are seeking can only come when you choose to follow Jesus.

That peace you seek can only come when you go after His Kingdom. For His Kingdom is not just a faraway place, but one you begin to enter and encounter even here on earth, because we are seated in heavenly places.

However, for you to truly come into the Kingdom, there is a standard—this is the “Seek ye first” protocol. Scripture says, Seek ye first His Kingdom.

Seek growth in the knowledge of Him.

Seek to live a righteous life.

Do not just have the gift of the Holy Spirit, but also bear the fruits.

Seek His righteousness, and every other thing, according to His will and purpose for your life, He will bring to pass.

“Seek ye first protocol ” should be our daily meditation, so that every day we ask Him, “Lord what would You have me do today?”Even as we come into the place of fellowship and communion with him today I pray that we receive the grace and the anointing to live right, in the name of Jesus. Grace to live right and not lose sight of the purpose of God for our lives in this season.

In Jesus name, Amen.

Stay revived.

Be on your guard for no one knows the time.

Be watchful, for no one knows the day or the hour when the Bridegroom will come for His bride.

“Watch therefore, for you know neither the day nor the hour in which the Son of Man is coming.” (Matthew 25:13)

Years ago, I had a conversation about the coming of Jesus. A lady said—not out of sarcasm, but from a place of limited understanding—
“Since I was young, I’ve been hearing that Jesus is coming. When will He come?”

My response remains the same: it is not for us to know the time or the hour of His coming.
“It is not for you to know times or seasons which the Father has put in His own authority.” (Acts 1:7)

But one thing is certain—when death comes, your opportunity to wait for Him ends. So why not choose now who you will serve, and remain in that decision?

In the parable of the virgins, no one told them exactly when the bridegroom would arrive. They were prepared with lamps, but some lacked enough oil to last until he comes. This reflects us in different phases of life—when we grow weary of waiting on the Lord and begin to choose what does not align with His will.

The timing of the Lord’s coming should not be our focus. Our focus should be readiness—so we are not caught off guard.

We must stand as watchmen, guarding our hearts against intruders—those distractions and temptations that cause us to lose focus and make wrong choices and decisions.

Let us not be like the Pharisees and Sadducees, who waited for the Messiah, yet failed to recognize Him when He came.

We must live with eternity in view, knowing it is closer than we think. Ask yourself: If Christ came today, would I be counted among His own?

Jesus’ birth was announced long before it happened, yet many did not recognize Him when He came. So it will be with His return—the sound will go forth, but only those who have prepared in salvation, prayer, and posture will be he it and be caught up.

Beloved, do not be carried away by the brokenness of this world and forget that there is life beyond this one. This life is only a preparation for eternity. It is better to lose anything in this world than to lose eternity.

When Did He Stop Being Your Lord?

 

Today, as I reflected on the account of John in the death and resurrection of Jesus, I became reflective. For a few moments, I didn’t feel emotional—I simply paused and took in the words of Mary when she said, “They have taken my Lord, and I don’t know where they have laid Him.”

John 20:13

“And they said to her, ‘Woman, why are you sobbing?’ She said to them, ‘Because they have taken away my Lord, and I do not know where they have laid Him.’”

To Mary—who had journeyed with her Master, watched Him be beaten, crucified, and buried—all she had left to hold onto was His body. Yet even in death, she still called Him “my Lord.” Death could not take Jesus’ position in Mary’s life.

She stood, waited, and kept waiting… asking anyone she thought might know:

“If you have taken my Master, show me where He is so I can take Him.”

“My Lord.”

To her, He remained her Lord.

She would wait for Him—even if it was only His body.

Mary’s posture becomes a question for us today:

What position does Jesus hold in our lives?

Mary waited for a Lord she believed was still in the grave. Yet we live in the truth of His resurrection—so why do we struggle to keep Him as Lord?

Has something else taken His place?

Maybe—just maybe—the trials and temptations of life have replaced Him.

Or perhaps the very things we prayed for—marriage, children, jobs, fame, or business—have slowly become idols seated in our hearts, displacing Him.

So I ask you:

Is Jesus still your Lord?

Or has He become the One standing at the door of your heart, knocking, waiting to be welcomed again as “my Lord”?

There can only be one Lord.

Will you choose Jesus today?

If the miracle delays, will you still wait for Him?

Will His promises still matter when everything becomes blurry?

Once again, will you ask Him to root you in Himself, so that every day, you will choose Him?

“Jesus, root me in You, so I can always find my way in You.”

Stay revived!

It is not a one-time event

Colossians 2:6–7

“As you therefore have received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him, rooted and built up in Him and established in the faith, as you have been taught, abounding in it with thanksgiving.”

A journey with Christ Jesus is a journey of victory. It is a life where you are assured of triumph. Salvation is not just answering an altar call or making a public declaration that you have chosen Jesus. It is not a one-time event—it is a daily decision to keep choosing Him.

Every day, we choose His Word, His instructions, and a life of trust and obedience. This daily choice launches us into a deeper discovery of who God is, and in Him, we truly discover who we are. It is through this process that we begin to live in the character of Jesus.

To be rooted in Christ means to be steadfast and unshakable, even in the midst of chaos and challenges. It means staying focused, fixing your eyes on Him, and trusting that you will neither fail nor fall.

It is like a seed planted in the soil. As the seed grows roots deep into the ground, it becomes stronger over time. Eventually, it sprouts and grows above the surface. With consistent nourishment—water and care—it continues to grow and flourish.

This is God’s desire for every one of His children: that we be deeply rooted in Him. Through daily communion and obedience, we grow and build spiritual strength in Him.

For us to be rooted, we need faith—and the truth is, we already have faith. Choosing Jesus is an act of faith. Scripture says that if our faith is as small as a mustard seed, we can speak to mountains to be removed and cast into the sea, and it will happen.

We must hold firmly to our salvation in Christ Jesus through faith so that we can stand strong in these changing times. God’s plan is that we walk by faith, continually abounding in thanksgiving, trusting that He will do exactly what He has said.
