Matthew6:33
33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto you.
The Kingdom of God, and his Righteousness in this Verse are Terms Comprehensive of whatsoever appertaineth to the Honour and Glory of God, either as Means, or as the End, Let your Principal Care, and Study be, how to get to Heaven, and how to promove the Kingdom of God in the World, to bring your Hearts in Subjection to the Will of God, that the Kingdom of God may be within you, and how to bring others to the Obedience of Faith, and of the Will of God. And for the things of this Life, it shall fare with you as it did with Solomon, 1 Kings 3.12, who asked not Riches and Honour, but had them. You shall have for your necessities, Psal. 37.4, Mar. 10, 30. 1 Tim. 4.8.
