Do you worry? Worry is the darkroom where negatives are developed…

Do you worry…then listen…

The devil would have you live in the future or the past instead of the now present moment…You ever notice when you worry about the future…you think about today what could happen tomorrow…then on the next the day…you think it will happen…then it does or does not…by worrying about the future you experience anxiety the day before…the day of…then afterwards wonder if you could improve? By worrying and not trusting our Good Shepherd…you create doubt and fear…listen to what Jesus said…

 

Mat 6:25-34 ASV  Therefore I say unto you, Be not anxious for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than the food, and the body than the raiment?

26  Behold the birds of the heaven, that they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; and your heavenly Father feeds them. Are not ye of much more value than they?  

27  And which of you by being anxious can add one cubit unto the measure of his life?  28  And why are ye anxious concerning raiment?

Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin:  29  yet I say unto you, that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.  

30  But if God doth so clothe the grass of the field, which to-day is, and to-morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith?  

 

Jesus asks three questions and summarizes with this final question…31  Be not therefore anxious, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed?  

32  For after all these things do the Gentiles seek; for your heavenly Father knows that ye have need of all these things.  33  But seek ye first his kingdom, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.  34  Be not therefore anxious for the morrow: for the morrow will be anxious for itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.

 

 

Jesus said the cure to worry…is to seek first His Kingdom and righteousness (right doing) and we will have all we need today…Jesus also said…Mat 5:6 ESV  Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied…Do you want to be right with God and fellow man? Yes or no…If you seek first God and His Kingdom…then Jesus said you will have what you need…so seek first today the kingdom of God and do what is right by God and fellow creation.

 

 

Listen to instructions given to Christian in the New Testament of Christ…which is the new agreement between God and creation…

As it is written…Php 4:6-7 ASV  In nothing be anxious; but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.  7  And the peace of God, which passes all understanding, shall guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus… Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time;  7  casting all your anxiety upon him, because he cares for you.  8  Be sober, be watchful: your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour 1Pe 5:6-8 ASV…1Jn 5:14-15 ASV  And this is the boldness which we have toward him, that, if we ask anything according to his will, he heareth us:  15  and if we know that he heareth us whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions which we have asked of him.

 

 

So are you full of worry about the past…worrying today about what you cannot change in the past? Rather…learn from yesterday because you cannot change the past…Are you worried about tomorrow today? Trying to change tomorrow today? Rather…will you seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness by doing what is right by God and creation today? Yes or no?

 

 

Father please help us be faithful today and supply our daily bread of life as we change and seek Your kingdom and righteousness…In Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.
