TOPIC: TAKE NO THOUGHT
TEXT: MATT 6:34: 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.
Somehow, we have picked up the idea that we are in control of our lives. Satan told Eve. “In the day you eat this fruit, you will be like God “(Gen 3:5) what a deal to be in control”. Sometimes we get ambitious and try to control the lives of others and when thing don’t go the way we think they should, we feel like we have let ourselves and everybody else down, and we worry ourselves sick.
Then someone says to us, “Only believe” so we stock up on tapes and books, and we start naming and claiming things but still nothing happens. Then someone else tells us we don’t have enough faith, or we are not worthy. So, we try going through some messenger of God, hopping from one church to another, hoping they can get it for us. Finally, in despair we turn to God and say I just can’t think anymore Lord, it’s all hours. And God smiles and says you, “That’s what I have been trying to tell you all along; take no taught”. When we take thought we take charge, and you know where that gets us. When we take stock, and we look at what we have got, instead of what He’s got so today stop thinking and start trusting. Put it all into God’s hand and don’t take it back. God bless you.
