Don’t worry Trust Jesus

Introduction

  • Jesus teaches about worry and trusting God’s provision.

  • This passage challenges us to shift our focus from anxiety to faith.

1. Do Not Worry (Matthew 6:25)

  • Jesus commands, “Do not worry about your life.”

  • What are the basic needs Jesus mentions? (Food, drink, clothing)

  • Reflection: What areas of your life do you worry about most?

2. God’s Care for Creation (Matthew 6:26-30)

  • Example 1: Birds of the air – They don’t store food, yet God feeds them.

    • Key Question: If God provides for them, won’t He provide for you?

  • Example 2: The lilies of the field – They don’t work, yet they are beautifully clothed.

    • Key Question: If God dresses flowers so magnificently, won’t He take care of you?

  • Main Takeaway: Worry does not add to our lives; trusting God does.

3. The Root of Worry: Little Faith (Matthew 6:31-32)

  • Jesus repeats: Do not worry about what to eat, drink, or wear.

  • Worry is linked to a lack of faith—“O you of little faith.”

  • The Gentiles (unbelievers) chase after these things, but God knows what you need.

  • Reflection: What does trusting God practically look like in your life?

4. The Right Focus: Seek First the Kingdom (Matthew 6:33)

  • Key verse: “Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.”

  • Priorities matter: God’s kingdom should be our first pursuit.

  • God’s promise: When we prioritize Him, He provides for our needs.

  • Personal Application: What does seeking God’s kingdom look like in your daily routine?

5. Trusting God for Tomorrow (Matthew 6:34)

  • Jesus’ final encouragement: “Do not worry about tomorrow.”

  • Each day has enough trouble—God gives daily grace for daily challenges.

  • Reflection: How can you trust God for the future without being consumed by worry?

Final Takeaways:

✅ Worry is unproductive—God cares for His creation and will care for you.
✅ Faith over fear—God knows what you need before you ask.
✅ Seek God first—His provision follows those who put Him first.
✅ Live in today—God’s grace is enough for each day’s challenges.
