We are all human. We all need the same things to survive, to be happy, to live.
Why is it believers and non believers have the same sort of dreams. Riches, Popularity, Success of the World, praised by men. Wouldn't a believer when has come to know God be seeking other things. " Seek first the Kingdom of God and all things shall be added onto you". Shouldn't it not be in our heart to try to gain any of those as it is temporary, it is worldly, and it doesnt actually bring life.
Even King Solomon who was and is and forever will be the wisest man on earth. God asked Him " Ask! What shall i Give you"
Solomon "....give to your servant an understanding heart to judge Your people, that i may discern between good and evil. For who is able to judge this great people of Yours?"
What solomon asked God pleased God very much and God replied
" Because you have asked this thing, and have not asked long life for yourself, nor have asked riches for yourself, nor have asked the life of your enemies, but have asked for yourself understanding to discern justice, behold i have done according to your words; see, I have given you a wise and understanding heart, so that there has not been anyone like you before you , nor shall any like you arise after you. And I have also given you what you have not asked; both riches and honor, so that there shall not be anyone like you among the kings all your days. So if you walk my ways, to keep my commandments as your father david walked, then I will lengthen your days"
Solomon seeked God's kingdom first. What would pleased God, He placed God first By having great love For God's people and as being the King wanted the Lord to give Him the ability to rule his land in justice and truth. And when Solomon seeked Gods kingdom :) all else was Surely added onto Him :)
