âTherefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes?â (Matthew 6:25 NIV).
God is the source of everything you need to live. He is the Good Shepherd who feeds, leads, and meets your needs. You donât have to look anywhere else. You donât have to look to Wall Street. You donât have to look to the government. You donât have to look to your spouse, your individual retirement account, your Social Security, or your job.
If youâre going to put your security in something, you need to put it in something that can never be taken from you. You can lose your health. You can lose your job. You can lose your good looks. You can lose your family. You can lose your life. You can lose your mind. You can even lose your way.
God, however, is never lost. And there is nothing you need that God canât supply. Philippians 4:19 says, âGod will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesusâ (ESV).
So why do we worry so much? Worry may be the most common sin on the planet. It is the direct result of forgetting that God is good all the time. You can pray, or you can panic. If youâre not praying, youâre panicking. You can worry, or you can worship. If youâre not worshiping, youâre worrying. As soon as you invite worship in the front door, worry goes out the back door.
The Bible says, âTherefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes?â (Matthew 6:25 NIV).
Clearly, God doesnât want you worrying about anything. Yet itâs hard for all of us to stop the worry habit. Itâs just in our nature!
The best place to start is prayer. Once youâve recognized how worry keeps you from the goodness of God and youâve decided that you donât want it to get the best of you, you can take things to God in prayer instead.[PLAY todayâs audio teaching from Pastor Rick >>](6n6XnwYN4:m:1:2618166767:8FBE26A38B71CA8054C18B94BE334367:r)
Talk About It
- How has worry affected you physically? What about emotionally? Spiritually?
- When was the last time you worried about something? Five minutes ago? Last week? Are you worried about something right now?
- Spend some time right now praying for the things you are worrying about. What difference does it make?
