Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? 32 (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things.33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
Matthew 6:31-33
What is the Kingdom of God? It is a person, Jesus Christ in us. Matthew 6:33 says “But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you”. This means by priority, the Kingdom of God must be manifested in your lifestyle. Doing things in the right way is living is righteousness. Therefore, sometimes, the bible would call a person who was not a Jew, righteous, Acts 10:22. There is a right way, a kingdom way to do everything including prayer, giving, living every day life, leisure, marriage, etc. The Kingdom of God is also not meat and drink or material things, as the Jews mistook it to mean, Romans 14:17. It is the power of the Holy Spirit operating in a person to bring righteousness, peace and Joy in the Holy spirit. If a person is struggling with any of these, they have most likely deviated from the path of the Kingdom.
