SCRIPTURE: Luke (NIV) 12:22 Then Jesus said to his disciples: “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat; or about your body, what you will wear…
29 And do not set your heart on what you will eat or drink; do not worry about it. 30 For the pagan world runs after all such things, and your Father knows that you need them. 31 But seek his kingdom, and these things will be given to you as well.
OBSERVATION: For our physical lives, there is nothing more basic than food and clothing. Of course, God knows this because He created us! He perfectly understands our physical bodies.
In these verses, Jesus is speaking to His disciples. He is speaking as their Creator. (John 1:3) And He is speaking as their LORD. They were His disciples.
APPLICATION: In claiming these scriptures for my life, I need to live acknowledging God as my creator and that He is my LORD. I need to put my trust in HIM and look to HIM for my daily provision. He may use someone else to be a part of His answer, but it is always best when they are responding to Him and not to me.
PRAYER: Heavenly Father, I am blest to know that you already know by needs. I want to honor you by depending on you to keep your word. I want to honor you by taking the job you provide and by being a careful, happy worker. May you be glorified in my life. In Jesus Name, Amen
