What Comes First Changes Everything: Gresha Schuilling Releases 'Seek First'
Share
“But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.” – Matthew 6:33
Every day asks us to choose what matters most.
Our attention is pulled in countless directions by tomorrow's worries, today's pressures, and the endless pursuit of having enough. Yet Jesus offered a radically different way to live. Instead of placing our needs first and hoping God will follow, He invites us to seek His Kingdom first and trust Him with everything else.
That invitation lies at the heart of Gresha Schuilling's latest single, 'Seek First', inspired by Matthew 6:25-33, Matthew 6:19-24, and Luke 12:22-32. Drawing directly from Jesus' teaching, the song gently redirects anxious hearts from striving towards trust, reminding listeners that the Father already knows every need before it is spoken.
Throughout the lyrics, familiar images from the Sermon on the Mount come to life. Birds that never store away their future are still faithfully fed. Lilies that never labour are clothed with extraordinary beauty. Together they become living reminders that God's care has never depended on human worry, but on His unchanging faithfulness.
The chorus echoes Christ's promise with joyful simplicity: “I'll seek first the Kingdom and His righteousness.” It is not presented as another obligation to fulfil, but as an invitation into a life where peace replaces anxiety, trust overcomes striving, and God's priorities reshape every decision. When the Kingdom comes first, everything else finds its rightful place.
Blending warm acoustic worship with uplifting melodies and timeless biblical truth, 'Seek First' encourages believers to fix their hearts on the treasures that cannot fade. It reminds the Church that God's greatest gift is not merely His provision, but His presence, and that every other promise flows from putting Him first.
'Seek First' is available on all major streaming platforms from August 24, 2026.
