Kingdom First

Jesus said in Matt 6:33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.

The Psalmist says in 37:4 Delight thyself also in the LORD: and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart. So when you seek the Lord, you will find Him.

But never ever forget this: They soon forgat his works; they waited not for his counsel: But lusted exceedingly in the wilderness, and tempted God in the desert. And he gave them their request; but sent leanness into their soul Psalm 106:13-15. This passage talks about the Israelites, the chosen children of God, had their desires, and they craved for it. They would've probably gone mad without it. God at this moment probably could not do anything other than granting it, BUT (aha, here is the key) He sent leanness into their soul. So you cannot override God's will with yours, although you may blindly think that God approves it.
