Radical Peace

Matthew 6:25-34

why Jesus Taught Not to Worry

1.It’s often about things

“Therefore 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?

Matthew 6:25

2.It’s always

Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life? Matthew 6:27

3.It reveals

If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you—you of little faith? Matthew 6:30

4.It’s truly

Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own. Matthew 6:34

Matthew 6:26

“And why do you worry about clothes? See how the flowers of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you Matthew 6:28-30

2.Respond with and

Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice!  Let your gentleness be evident to all.

Philippians 4:4-7

3.Reprioritize God’s and His in my life

But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Matthew 6:33
