[00:00:01] Good morning. Good morning. How are you on this fine, fine, but beautiful day? I hope you're having a great day today, and I hope you're excited today, because today is the day that the Lord hath made. We will be glad. We will rejoice in it. Rejoice in every single moment that you have under the sun in this cosmos, in this arrangement. Be thankful, be happy, continually Give God that sacrifice of praise. Praise him and thank him and be joyous. I'm going through the woes of gray weather, trying to keep it together, trying to be of a stable mind.
[00:00:37] I feel like sometimes during this time I'm kind of. I don't know. It's like I am after constant need of stimulation, mental stimulation, just. It's a constant thing. And then it makes you almost antsy. So when I start reading this stuff, it allows me to settle my mind and calm down. If you go to Luke, chapter 12, verse 22, it says, and he said unto his disciples, therefore I say unto you, take no thought for your life what you shall eat, neither for your body, what ye shall put on the life is more than meat, and the body is more than raiment or clothing.
[00:01:18] Don't be anxious. Take no thought for your life. Don't be anxious for your life. I mean, can you imagine not being anxious about anything? We are not to be anxious. Be anxious for not one thing, but by all things through prayers to God and supplication, which are those prayers of personal need. Let your specific request be declared unto God, and God's peace will calm your heart, essentially. But again, and he said unto his disciples, this is Christ Jesus talking. Therefore I say unto you, take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, neither for your body, what you shall put on the life is more than meat, and the body is more than rainment or clothing. Verse 24. Consider the ravens. For they neither sow nor, nor reap, and that's plant or harvest, the burs. Don't do anything other than fly around and enjoy the good that God gives them, which neither having storehouse nor barn, and. And God feedeth them. How much more are ye better than the fowls? Again, this is talking in the context of not worrying about your life, what you shall put on, not worrying about what you shall clothe yourself with, what you shall eat. God takes care of his creation. And it gives the example of the birds. They don't store any. They don't plant, they don't. They don't harvest, and they don't do the work to put it away in storage, yet God feeds them. How much better are you to God? And if you don't know it's in the Word, you're a son of God. Right now he's going to take care of his children. That is 100%, verse 25. And which of you with taking thought can add to his stature? One cubit you can worry about. You can worry about not being tall enough. How much worrying is it going to take for you to grow? It's not happening. God knows what's best for you. God will take care of you. Verse 26. If then ye be not able to do that thing which is the least, why take thought for the rest?
[00:03:25] If you can't do anything about the little things, why worry about the big things? It's pretty logical. I mean, God is going to take care of you.
[00:03:35] Verse 27 Consider the lilies, how they grow. They toil not, they spend not. And yet I say unto you that Solomon in all of his glory was not arrayed like one of these. If then God so clothed the grass which is today in the field and tomorrow is cast into the oven, how much more will he clothe you, ye of little faith?
[00:03:58] If God will take care of his creation and you're part of that creation, why won't he take care of you in all things? He knows you, you are his children.
[00:04:09] When I finish up with this, if you jump over the second Corinthians, Chapter three, blessed be. Chapter I'm sorry, Chapter one, Verse three. Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and the God of all comfort.
[00:04:29] He is the Father of mercies that at that active compassion. And he's the God of all comfort or consolation which is alleviation from misery.
[00:04:39] He's going to. He is the God that alleviates misery and he's going to alleviate that stuff in your life.
[00:04:47] Verse 4 who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble.
[00:04:57] He is there to comfort and alleviate you from misery. He is there with you in life. He knows what's going on. He knows every hair on your head. In all thy ways acknowledge him and he shall direct thy path. When you go to God and you feel comfortable knowing that you went to him and he directed that path. There is not fear in life.
[00:05:19] Don't live in the struggle. Live by faith. Have a beautiful day today. Pray the big prayers. Lift everything up in the name of Jesus Christ. When you pray, you pray to God never to Jesus Christ, you pray to God, you lift it up in the name of Jesus Christ. Have a beautiful day. God bless you and your family. I'll talk to you tomorrow.
[00:05:47] Well, Heavenly Father, I just ask that you take away this anxiousness, Father, that just kind of calm my mind down or show me how or what steps to take to get there. I thank you for today that we just continually get done with everything that needs to get done. I pray for our country that you take care of everything that's going on, especially New Jersey and all that stuff. And Father, I thank you again for just, just the, I don't know, just, just how, how good you are and what your son did for us in your word, how it comforts and I'm thankful that you always bring me to places that are, that are comforting. So I lift up a great day to you in the name of my Lord and Savior Christ Jesus.
