“But seek (aim at and strive after) first of all His kingdom and His righteousness [His way of doing and being right], and then all these things taken together will be given you besides”. Matthew 6:33 AMP
Some of God’s children stick to the seeking of the kingdom of God; they believe the only work they have after giving their lives to Christ, is to concentrate on being holy for God and they forget that there is a righteousness/expansion of the kingdom.
God is concerned with you becoming His son but He is always concerned with reconciliation, bringing others to Him so they too can become sons.
If God’s interest was just in your salvation then you would be taken up to heaven the very moment you accept Jesus into your life.

Little wonder Jesus said in Matthew 24:14
“And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come”.
Remember how the seventy came back excited after being sent out by Jesus and they could heal the sick and cast out demons like their master, but the master knowing that salvation was the root to a life of extraordinary exploits told them that true course for jubilation was the fact that they would receive salvation (Luke 10:20)

While Jesus was on earth, He healed the sick, preached (taught), freed the oppressed and so many other miracles but He didn’t give anyone salvation because He was yet to die, but as He died and resurrected, He created a way for men to get salvation.
Apostle Paul must have understood the importance of this when he said,
“For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God…” Romans 1:16.
The Good news of the life that the death of Christ affords, is the power of God to transform a man from the kingdom of darkness to the kingdom of the son in light.
You are the ambassador of Christ; fulfill your part which involves winning souls for the kingdom for Him to fulfill His; having everything added unto you.
We serve a God of Faithfulness without injustice, he is righteous and true; he never fails.
