Turn with me again this evening, if you would, in the scripture, to Matthew 6 and Luke 14.

Matthew 6 and Luke 14.

Now, as Pastor said, if you were not with us in these previous sessions it would you'd get the most

out of tonight if you had heard those things this is a series you might say and we're building

upon what we have ministered the last few sessions and we've been talking about the first

principle and you see the text here in Matthew 6 and And we've been talking about the first principle.

And you see the text here in Matthew 6 and in verse 32.

Matthew 6 32.

Jesus is speaking and he said,

for after all these things, talking about natural things, food and drink, clothes, and things necessary for the natural man, after all these things, do the Gentiles seek?

We'd say today the world, those not save, those not serving God. That's what they're doing.

For your heavenly father knows that you have need of all these things. But seek ye first,

the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto you.

What is the first principle? This is the first principle.

The first principle is the principle of putting God first.

How do you put God first?

His things, his works, his kingdom.

His kingdom is his domain and his rule.

We're in the kingdom of God, and the kingdom of God is in us.

And that should be our priority.

Amen.

We should understand that that's why we exist.
