As we know, God shall supply all of our needs according to His riches in glory. So what in life do we have to worry about. When we realize that we don't have to worry about this or that and that in God's eyes they are very small problems, then we can focus the time spent on worrying on more constructive activities. Like winning souls for the Kingdom of God. I think that it is a wonderful thing that we are not to be concerned about the things of this world. God has told us that His grace is sufficient for us. The grace that God gives, salvation, is what we are to worry about, and when we have this there is nothing else that we are to be concerned with. So Christians, will you cast your cares upon Christ and not worry about the trivial things in life? Will you spend your time in spiritual warfare? God Bless you all.

Mark,
I think you have read way to much into a simple statement. Maybe it could mean that they would find God so He could bless them. And does not God give everything that one has, believer and non-believer? So has not God blessed the non-believer with life? Just a thought.

You are right we have nothing to worry about with Jesus Christ.For those who do not believe and say what about paying bills.God provides with jobs an if we follow him jobs that we can enjoy instead of complaining about.2For those who quote verse to disprove God's love wake up you cannot.For you seem to think that God does not love everyone he does.But would you reward someone for evil nor will God but he will still loves them.When God sees people sinning it hurts him just like a Father who sees his children doing wrong.But he will not help them unless they come to him and follow him or he will just be rewarding people for doing wrong.When I sin and we are all sinners God punishes me but when I do good he rewards me and it is not material ethier most of the times.Before I accepted Jesus as my saviour and true started to follow himI was a loner and very unhappy and untrusting of everyone.But now I have friends I can trust And 3 friends in 1 with God,Jesus and the Holy Spirit.I am the more happy today than I have been in all my life.Yes life has its up and downs but I know with Jesus I will be alright and I know when Jesus calls for me where I am going.

HOW.... can you say.... GOD... Bless you....... " ALL?"
(Matthew 22:29) Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do err, not knowing the scriptures, nor the power of God.
DID YOU MISS THIS........?
(Jude 1:3-4) Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints.
(Jude 1:4) For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ.
AND.....
(2Timothy 3:2-to-7) For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
(2Ti 3:3) Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,
(2Ti 3:4) Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;
(2Ti 3:5) Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.
(2Ti 3:6) For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts,
(2Ti 3:7) Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.
YOU.... speak about SPITITUAL WARFARE..... and yet you say... GOD... bless you .... ALL.....?
HOW.....? God CANNOT.... bless those spoken about ABOVE... and all the Other VERSES.... that I don't have Room for HERE!
Perhaps.... YOU... need to Examimne.... YOURSELF.....? Preach.... TO YOURSELF..... FIRST!
Oh.... YES.... Did YOU miss.... Hebrews 11:38..... OTHERS?
The Church is NOT.... AND has not BEEN PROMISED.... the Temporal Blessings of the Covenant ISRAEL!
YES.... Salvation is Only By Grace... Ephesians 2:8-9-10 & Titus 3:5!
Perhaps.... YOU SHOULD NOT......
(Matthew 7:6) Give not
that which is holy
unto the dogs,
neither cast ye your pearls
before swine,
lest they trample them under their feet,
and turn again and rend you.
Thanks, RR

Ready4...
Beautifully said. My "will" is to say "yes"
God be with you always :)
*smellslikepot... God doesn't want us idle...sometimes God DOES lead a person to quit their job when He wants them to do a certain minnistry and learn to rely solely on Him and not ourselves...but, God uses us in many ways...even at our workplaces and helping others whom are in need is often difficult without a means to do so, lol :)
*Mark101112....you are forgetting that God loves all those above and wants them to know Him just like we do... Jesus came for the LOST...NOT...for just those whom already love Him....

Concern yourself with understanding the will of the almighty and be not deceived by powerful preachers for Jesus was humble but churches are not. They are full of sinners. I am innocent. I believe that I am worthy of my father and my brother.

I have always clung to the saying "Let go and Let God" but sometimes it is so much easier to say then to do. Worry can be turned around via prayer and then it is easier to let things go.

The only thing you have to worry about is the fact that you have a serious disconnect with reality by having substituted delusion in its place. Aside from that, I'm sure everything is fine for you and all the other believers in your asylum.

I don't worry about trivial things
I do spiritual warfare, but not nearly enough.
Good going!

Why should we look after our planet, or worry about the horrible things that our fellow humans do in the name of religion?
Who needs to think for themselves or accept their responsibilities when we have the Magic Man?

what if its the other way around.
what if your serving the bad guy.
what if God wants you to be responsible for your deeds, be a good person, and try to improve THIS world?
and its the bad guy whos offering you this solution of dumping off all your wrongdoings onto someone else, disregarding this world and trying to convert people to him, unwittingly drawing people away from God.
Upon what basis are you so absolutely certain this is not so?

Yes, so quit your job and stop worrying about how you're going to pay the bills. Pick up your cardboard sign saying "the end is near" and go find youself a street corner to preach on.
