DO NOT BE ANXIOUS ABOUT TOMORROW

SCRIPTURE READING - 📖 Matthew 6:25

“Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink, nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing?”

Additional Verses

📖 Deuteronomy 28:1-14; Matthew 6:25-34; Luke 12:13-34

Anxiety is a very serious problem which can lead to many diseases in your body. Anxiety in a child of God is evidence of immaturity in the virtues of the fruit of the spirit mentioned in Galatians 5:22-23, which are, love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faithfulness, meekness and self-control. It is a problem that grows in a person as a result of worry. Where a person lacks the virtue of patience or longsuffering, when faced with persecution or other problems like financial problems or sickness of a family member or other relative, he will certainly be subject to anxiety. For a child of God, once this happens, your anointing will certainly go down and this in turn opens windows and even doors to infiltration by the enemy. Some, even when things are not going on very well at their homes or place of employment, instead of praying to God and proclaim Rhema for God to take charge of their challenges, they allow worry to overwhelm them so much. They completely forget about Psalm 23:1-6, “The Lord is my Shepherd, l shall not lack------.” or what Paul says in Romans 8:28-37. They only recite these Scriptures when things are going on well for them. Remember what Paul says in Romans 8:37 that “Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us.” The fact that you have eternal life and this life is from the Spirit of God Almighty, and if you truly understand what this means, there is no weapon fashioned against you by the enemy that is able to bring you down. “You are of God, little children, and have overcome them, because greater is He that is in you, than he who is in the world.” [1 John 4:4.] God gave you all the authority and power over all that brings anxiety. God priced you so highly when He gave up His only Son Jesus Christ for you. Luke 12:24, “Consider the raven; for they neither sow nor reap; which neither have storehouse nor barn, and God feeds them: how much more are you better than the fowls?” The LORD is telling you that your value is more than anything that God ever created on this planet. You are His mirror image and therefore live by God’s commandments. Deuteronomy 28:1-14, explains how God’s children will prosper and become successful once they remain obedient to His Word. Where there is prosperity and success according to God’s Word, there is no anxiety. Because Jesus Christ lives, l can face tomorrow, because He lives, all fear is gone, because l know He holds the future and life is worth the living just because He lives. Finally, remember that God’s thoughts for you are not of evil but are of a future and hope. Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Proverbs 3:5-6 says, “Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight.” This means relying entirely on God’s guidance, acknowledging Him in every decision, and letting His wisdom lead, rather than trying to figure things out on your own. When you put all your trust in the LORD, you are going to be an overcomer and the glory of the Lord will manifest in your life. Alleluia!

Prayer

Dear Father in Heaven, I am sorry for the time that I have been anxious and not trusted Your Word. I thank You for Your Word which encourages me not to be anxious about tomorrow, but to always know that You know all things and I should always trust in You, in Jesus Christ’s, name l pray. Amen.
