The God-first mentality
The God-first mentality is the mentality that makes God the number one priority of one’s existence.
Being interested in the interests of God attracts Blessings from God for generational impact.
In 2 Chronicles 27:6, the Bible says, So Jotham became mighty, because he prepared his ways before the LORD his God.
In Matthew 6:33, the Bible also says, But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
