Worrying is Unnecessary!
“So why do you worry about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin; and yet I say to you that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. Now if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will He not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? “Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.
Matthew 6:28-34 NKJV
I would quickly love to share a few thoughts on this verse focusing on how Jesus Christ described that persons that troubles over things.
Hearing Jesus Christ calling such people a people of little Faith, one would ask, what then can be done to increase this little Faith and when the Faith is increased, would it stop that man from worrying over those things?
First of all, it's a nice thing that Jesus Christ clearly stated the cause for worrying over material possessions and the scriptures also gave us a way to resolve it.
Everyone of us was given "the" measure of Faith but we must increase this measure of Faith by feeding our Spirit man with the Word, only then can we grow our Faith from that little to the much.
I personally call it "the awareness process"...
If I am aware that I can download a taxify app on my phone and order a taxi from my room, why should I worry over how I would walk outside my house to look out for a passing by taxi
The same way, when u become aware of all that God has said about you and your inheritance in Christ Jesus, your confident (Faith) would increase and you will not find yourself worrying about getting a job, passing that exams or walking in any of the physical achievements you seek for because you know he will surely show up.
As you do your own part to prepare daily for growth, be rest assured he is doing his part to create for you the environment and provision for that growth.
God does not want us to worry over anything
He said cast your cares upon me for I care for you
He said all things works together for the good of those that loves him, those who are called according to his name.
Are you born again? If yes, then u are called according to his name... So, worry not over anything for God cares for you.
Thank you for reading and God bless you!
