\\u201cTherefore I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink; nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? Which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature? \\u201cSo why do you worry about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin; and yet I say to you that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. Now if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is, and\\xa0tomorrow\\xa0is thrown into the oven, will He not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? \\u201cTherefore do not worry, saying, \\u2018What shall we eat?\\u2019 or \\u2018What shall we drink?\\u2019 or \\u2018What shall we wear?\\u2019 For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you. Therefore do not worry about\\xa0tomorrow, for\\xa0tomorrow\\xa0will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.\\u201d Matthew 6:25-34 (NKJV)\\xa0

WORRY CANNOT ADD ANYTHING TO YOUR LIFE.\\xa0

\\u201cTherefore do not worry about\\xa0tomorrow, for\\xa0tomorrow\\xa0will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.\\u201d Matthew 6:34 (NKJV)\\xa0

TURN YOUR WORRY INTO WORSHIP

\\u201cTherefore do not worry, saying, \\u2018What shall we eat?\\u2019 or \\u2018What shall we drink?\\u2019 or \\u2018What shall we wear?\\u2019\\u201d Matthew 6:31 (NKJV)\\xa0

YOUR HAPPINESS IS NOT AN ISSUE OF NEED BUT OF ORDER!

  1. IT\\u2019S ALL ABOUT ORDER

GOD CAN BLESS YOU MORE THAN YOU CAN BLESS YOURSELF.

ALL THE ENERGY YOU GIVE TO WORRY IS A LOSS. ALL THE ENERGY YOU GIVE TO WORSHIP IS AN INVESTMENT.\\xa0

\\u201cseek His righteousness\\u201d

\\u201cAnd all these things will be added to you.\\u201d

  1. ENJOY YOUR FREEDOM
