Seek, first God's kingdom and His RIGHTEOUSNESS and all these things shall be added. Not our righteousness but His righteousness. When Peter went fishing to get the first fish, and open his mouth to see money, did Peter asked to find the owner? Didn't Peter do what Christ said and received the money and paid the debt that was not even owed. Ask and it shall be given, Seek and you shall find, Knock and the door shall be opened. Jesus is the word of God spoken to Peter to go fishing and the first fish, there shall be money in his mouth. God is good. If God gave you the thing that you needed, would you hinder it and be self-righteous? Suppose Peter said, "I can't give this money to the tax people they might think that I stole this money," this is self-righteous. You are important because you received Christ in your life, God's Righteousness. Your good works is not why God answers your prayers. Put the money on your taxes as a gift, and receive from the Lord. We love God because He first loved us. Jesus wants you to be free to serve him and to be a light, a city that is set on a hill it can not be hid, to show how much God loves you, so people will believe on God that sent Jesus, that God is good. So seek out your blessings, knock to inquire of your blessings, Ask God about your blessings, for every one that ask, receives..and they that seeks, finds, and they that knocks, the door shall be opened to them, this is a promise from Jesus our Lord. This is your faith, to believe the Lord's word. For faith is what pleases God. Amen.
