God Above All Else



“So don’t worry about these things, saying, ‘What will we eat? What will we drink? What will we wear?’  These things dominate the thoughts of unbelievers, but your heavenly Father already knows all your needs.  Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need."

—Matthew 6:31-33 (NLT)


Heavenly Father,


Help me always to seek You above all else—fully believing that You will give me everything that I need, as I live uprightly before You.


Keep me from wasting my time by allowing my mind to be cluttered with the anxious worries that unbelievers invite to consume them all day and all night.  I believe Your Word—help me to act like I do!

Help me to fix my attention on the answer—the answer that I always find revealed in Your Word—rather than the problem, since I know that You are already aware of my every need and are always working Your plan to provide for my needs, if I will just place my trust in You.

As I commit to putting You above all else in my life—and You show me Your faithfulness by supplying every spiritual, mental, emotional, and physical need I may have—don’t allow me to let the “what if” lies of the enemy rob me of the privilege that You have placed before me of walking obediently and fully living out Your perfect will for me each day.


Help me always to seek You above all else—fully believing that You will give me everything that I need, as I live uprightly before You.


In the name of Jesus, Amen.
