Trusting God For Your Provisions

Do not worry but seek first the kingdom of God

Matt 6:25-34 (KJV) Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment? Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they? Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature? And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin: And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which to day is, and to morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith? Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things. But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.

Seek first the kingdom of God and God will take care of your finances

So often we panic, wondering where the money is coming from to meet our needs.


I was meditating upon this in church this morning and God gave me this illustration. 

My children never worry about where there daily food is coming from. They expect me to provide it. 


Likewise, in this passage Jesus is teaching us to have this child like faith and mindset. 

It is Our Heavenly Father's responsibility to provide these things for us. Our responsibility is to seek first the kingdom of God and all these things will be provided.

Let us develop that child like faith and trust in God who is well able to meet our needs. Amen!
