What does 'seeking first the kingdom of God' mean?

Answered in 2 sources

'Seeking first the kingdom of God' means prioritizing God's righteousness and the work of Christ above all else.

'Seeking first the kingdom of God' encompasses prioritizing God's reign and righteousness in our lives, as highlighted in Matthew 6:33. This seeks to reflect a heart fully devoted to Christ, who is our righteousness. By placing the kingdom of God at the forefront, we acknowledge that His rule and authority take precedence in guiding our decisions and actions. The underlying principle is that when God is first in our lives, everything else will align according to His will. It’s a call for believers to return to the foundational aspects of their faith, recognizing that true spiritual fulfillment is found only in Christ.
