Welcome to The Gathering – Week 16 with Apostle Kemi Kayode

In this week's powerful teaching, "Seek First the Kingdom," Apostle Kemi Kayode unpacks Jesus' command in Matthew 6:33, revealing that seeking God's Kingdom first is not merely good advice—it is God's order for every believer.

Drawing from:

• Matthew 6:25–34
• Matthew 13:31–49
• Luke 17:21
• Romans 14:17
• Isaiah 55
• Nehemiah 8:10
• Colossians 3:15

this teaching reveals that the Kingdom of God is not something that can simply be explained—it is a mystery that must be revealed by the Holy Spirit to those who diligently seek Him. Through Jesus' parables of the mustard seed, the leaven, the hidden treasure, the pearl of great price, and the dragnet, Apostle Kemi Kayode shows that the Kingdom is hidden from natural eyes but revealed to those who hunger for God above everything else. This teaching explores:

• What it truly means to seek first the Kingdom
• Why the Kingdom confronts the idols of the heart
• How Christ becomes first above every pursuit
• Why the Kingdom is a present reality, not merely a future destination
• Righteousness as living in agreement with God's Word through the Holy Spirit
• Peace as the atmosphere where God's presence reigns
• Joy as the strength that flows from continual communion with the Holy Spirit

You will also discover that the Kingdom first transforms the inner man before it is manifested outwardly through character, authority, and fruitfulness. The gathering concluded with heartfelt prayers for revelation, reordered priorities, restored joy, freedom from anxiety, healing, forgiveness, and hearts fully surrendered to Christ's reign.

This teaching leaves every believer with one important question:

What truly occupies first place in your heart?

When Christ reigns first, everything else finds its proper place.
