Do you worry?

Luke 12 verse 28 If then God so clothe the grass, which is to day in the field, and to morrow is cast into the oven; how much more will he clothe you, O ye of little faith?

The bible refers to believers as little children quite a lot, in fact Jesus himself said that we should be as Little children, and humble ourselves, and that those who do so will be the most important in the kingdom of heaven.

There are many characteristics on children, but today we are focusing on how carefree children are, how they don't worry about anything.

Children depend on their parents on every aspect of their lives, and they trust that whatever they need their parents will get for them, they trust that their parents have handled everything, so they don't worry about anything.

That's how God wants us to be like, He wants us to leave everything in His hands without a single worry, or doubt that He will handle it.

The verse above is basically saying that, if God clothes the grass that is today in the field and tomorrow cast into the oven, how much more, us, His Children, how much more you His child.

Luke 12 verse 24 Consider the ravens: for they neither sow nor reap; which neither have storehouse nor barn; and God feedeth them: how much more are ye better than the fowls?

We constantly worry about what we are going to eat, what we are going to wear, how things are going to go with the people we owe, without putting into consideration the birds, the Ravens, God feeds the birds, He feeds the elephants, He feeds the giraffes, He feeds every creature on this earth. Yet you still worry.

Why? Why do you worry? God feeds the ravens, why do you worry? God clothes the grass, why do you worry? When you are of much importance than the birds, than the grass, than the elephants and the giraffes.

Why are you so fixated on that debt? Why are you so worried about your finance? Why are you constantly doubting God's ability to take care of his children.

Luke 12 verse 29 And seek not ye what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink, neither be ye of doubtful mind.

When we constantly worry about what we will eat tomorrow what we will drink tomorrow, how we are going to pay that debt tomorrow, we will begin to doubt God, and a big thing you have to avoid in life is doubting God.

Because doubting God is simply saying that, He can't provide for you, He can't feed you He can't clothe you, when he does all of these  things for the beings lesser than you.

The bible tells us not to lean on our own understanding, or in other words, not to do anything outside of what God wants us to do. When we begin to doubt Him about these things, we begin to do our own thing, we begin to try and get food in our own way, we begin to try and get money in our own way, we begin to try and get drink in our own way.

And let me tell you right now, that is a recipe for failure, when we begin to lean on our own understanding we will not succeed, we should TRUST that God can handle everything and that He has handled everything, and not worry about anything.

I know we are in hard times, I know that you're going through a lot, i know that there have been times when you have cried, but you should realise that God has never failed you and He's not gonna do it now.

God has never failed in giving you the things you NEED, so why do you worry?

Often times we confuse need to want, God has never failed to give you water for life,  food for hunger, and clothing so you don't walk around naked, God has never and will never Fail to give you the things you need, and He will always check to see if the things you want aligne with His plans for your life before he gives them to you.

that thing you prayed for wasn't a need, that's why God didn't give to you, it was a want that didn't aligne with his plans for your life, it was a want that wouldn't have benefited you if He had given them to you, it was a want that could have killed you that's why he didn't give it to you.

Some people confuse need for want, they may get what they need but because they didn't get what they wanted, they begin to doubt God and his ability to provide for them.

You may not doubt, but worrying is no better, we should not worry about tomorrow when today is not even complete, we should not worry about tomorrow when we have the ALMIGHTY, we should not worry about tomorrow when our Father is the creator of the universe and above, the Lord of lords, the Lord of hosts, King of kings The Alpha and omega, the beginning and the end, the saviour of man.

What is there to worry about when your Father is a King, when your Father is GOD.

Even witches and wizards provide for their children, let alone the Creator.

I encourage you today to stop worrying, and leave every one of your burdens in God's hands.

Stop worrying about what you are going to eat today, or tomorrow, pray to God about every burden or worry, and worry no more about it, knowing that God has already handled that for you.

The bible tells us to not seek these things, but to seek first the kingdom of God and all of it will be added on to us. How i see it, if you're a Christian, throw away your worries and focus on your relationship with God, if you're not a Christian, forget the world, and give your life to Christ.

Philippians 4 verse 6 Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.

Worry about nothing, instead pray about everything.

Have a blessed day.
