How to Seek God First: A KJV Bible Study for Daily Living

How to Seek God First: A KJV Bible Study for Daily Living Seeking God first is not merely a spiritual slogan; it is the root practice of a life ordered toward covenant faithfulness. As a community rooted in the truths of Scripture and mindful of our heritage, we look to the KJV to guide hearts toward Yahweh through Yahawashi. This study gathers clear passages and practical steps to help you put God first in prayer, obedience, priorities, and daily decisions. Foundations from Scripture Jesus gives a clear command about priorities: "But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness" (Matthew 6:33 KJV). In context He addresses anxious hearts about daily needs and reorients us: when God’s rule and righteousness are central, provision follows. Seeking first means choosing the kingdom as the grid for every decision. Trust and direction come together in Proverbs: "Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding" (Proverbs 3...

Living Set Apart: The Call to Holiness

Image
Introduction: You Were Not Called to Blend In We live in a culture that aggressively pressures everyone to conform — to agree with its values, adopt its lifestyles, and abandon the ancient paths of God’s Word in the name of relevance, tolerance, and progress. And nowhere is this pressure felt more acutely than in the lives of believers who have heard the call to live holy and set apart for God. The world pulls in one direction. God’s Word pulls in another. But the call to holiness is not a call to religious perfectionism or joyless rule-keeping. It is a call to identity — to knowing who you are as a covenant child of the Most High God and living from that identity outward. God’s people have always been a ‘peculiar people’ in the most beautiful sense of that word: unique, set apart, distinctly belonging to Him. This is not a burden. It is your glory. Today we are going to look at the biblical call to holiness through the lens of the King James Bible — not as a system of dos and don’t...

The Blessing of Obedience

Image
Introduction: God’s Blessings Are Not Random — They Follow a Path Many believers pray earnestly for blessing — for provision, protection, peace, and prosperity in every area of life. And these are good and godly desires. But what much of modern Christianity has failed to teach is that God’s blessings are not distributed randomly or by spiritual lottery. The Word of God reveals a clear and consistent principle that runs from Genesis to Revelation: obedience to God’s commands is the pathway upon which His blessings travel. This is not a teaching about earning your salvation — salvation is the gift of God’s grace, full stop. But the quality of your daily life, the measure of blessing you experience, and the degree to which God’s favor rests on your household are deeply connected to your willingness to walk in His statutes. God designed it this way because He loves His people and knows that His ways lead to life while the world’s ways lead to death. Deuteronomy 28 is one of the most det...

Why God's Commandments Still Matter Today

Image
Introduction: The Law Has Not Been Abolished One of the most widespread teachings in modern Christianity is that the commandments of God were nailed to the cross and are no longer binding on the believer. This idea has brought tremendous confusion into the body of believers — leaving many sincere souls living without the guardrails God lovingly placed around His people. If you have ever wondered whether God's commandments still apply to your life today, this teaching will bring you the clarity and peace that only Scripture can provide. The truth is that the commandments of God are not a burden designed to oppress you — they are a gift designed to bless you. Every statute, every ordinance, every instruction God gave through Moses was spoken from the heart of a Father who loves His children deeply. He gave us His commandments the same way a loving parent gives a child boundaries: not to restrict their joy, but to protect their life. Today we are going to go directly to the Word of...

Why the Biblical Sabbath Still Matters

Why the Biblical Sabbath Still Matters The Sabbath is more than just a day of rest—it is a divine appointment set by God to restore our soul, refresh our spirit, and align our lives with His eternal plan. In a world dominated by busyness and constant activity, understanding why the Sabbath remains relevant is crucial for every believer seeking true peace and obedience. 📖 The Divine Command for Sabbath Rest In Deuteronomy 5:12-15, the Lord commands His people to “Keep the Sabbath day to sanctify it.” This is not an optional guideline but a direct commandment from our Creator. Observing the Sabbath allows us to remember the work of God in creation and His deliverance of Israel from Egypt. It is a weekly reminder of His faithfulness, mercy, and provision. God did not create us to run endlessly without pause. Even He rested on the seventh day after creation (Genesis 2:2-3). This rest was not due to fatigue but as a model for humanity—a pattern of sacred rhythm in life. 🕊 Spiritu...
