Have you noticed that life gives us plenty of opportunities to worry, or be anxious? It’s natural to worry—but it’s not spiritual. Being anxious is antithetical to walking in the Spirit. In God’s Kingdom, all things work together for those who love God, and are the called according to His purpose. This is God’s promise to those who believe. Worry is a tool of the enemy that entices us into not believing, not trusting God. Faith resists worry. Romans 14:23 (KJV)reminds us, “...whatsoever is not of faith is sin.” Matthew 6:25-34(VOICE) sums it up: “Here is the bottom line: do not worry about your life. Don’t worry about what you will eat or what you will drink. Don’t worry about how you clothe your body. Living is about more than merely eating, and the body is about more than dressing up. 26 Look at the birds in the sky. They do not store food for winter. They don’t plant gardens. They do not sow or reap—and yet, they are always fed because your heavenly Father feeds them. And you are even more precious to Him than a beautiful bird. If He looks after them, of course He will look after you. 27 Worrying does not do any good; who here can claim to add even an hour to his life by worrying? 28 Nor should you worry about clothes. Consider the lilies of the field and how they grow. They do not work or weave or sew, and yet their garments are stunning. 29 Even King Solomon, dressed in his most regal garb, was not as lovely as these lilies. 30 And think about grassy fields—the grasses are here now, but they will be dead by winter. And yet God adorns them so radiantly. How much more will He clothe you, you of little faith, you who have no trust?31 So do not consume yourselves with questions: What will we eat? What will we drink? What will we wear? 32 Outsiders make themselves frantic over such questions; they don’t realize that your heavenly Father knows exactly what you need. 33 Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and then all these things will be given to you too. 34 So do not worry about tomorrow. Let tomorrow worry about itself. Living faithfully is a large enough task for today.” Believers are called to live lives of faithfulness. Whatever we need (desire)...God’s got it! He’s not stingy. He’ll give it to you, as you seek His kingdom.
