Day 9: Worry

Scripture:
  • Matthew 6:31-34 So do not consume yourselves with questions: What will we eat? What will we drink? What will we wear? Outsiders make themselves frantic over such questions; they don’t realize that your heavenly Father knows exactly what you need. Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and then all these things will be given to you too. So do not worry about tomorrow. Let tomorrow worry about itself. Living faithfully is a large enough task for today.

Consider:
  • How does worry hurt our spiritual lives?

  • What is one thing you are worried about today? Can you give it over to God?

  • What does it mean to seek God’s kingdom first?

Prayer focus:
  • Give all your cares and worries to God today. 
  • “Lord, I trust you to take care of me in these areas.”
  • Praise the Lord for his provision, power and faithfulness.
