TAKE NO THOUGHT FOR YOUR LIFE

Jesus instructed us not to take any thought for our lives. These words come from the heart of Christ, yet we find ourselves in a society where the cares of this world often affect our mood and lead to worry. Jesus clearly stated, "Take no thought for your life." Friends, this profound advice comes from someone who understands the essence of the blessing.

The blessing of the Lord is not achieved through worry, hard work, or relentless hustle; it is realized by following the teachings of Jesus Christ. He assures us that our Father in heaven knows our needs. What Jesus is saying is that we should not be consumed by our immediate concerns or anxieties. Instead, we should focus on the work of God, and in doing so, He will make us fishers of men. Just as any employer offers us a job with benefits, Jesus extends to us an offer that pays in countless rewards. He said, "Follow me, and I will make you." The question is, will you follow Him?

If you desire to experience total wellness and prosperity, I encourage you to work for God, for this is where true riches and abundance lie! It is essential to seek God first in all things and to set your family on this divine course. When you commit to serving God and pursuing souls, you will find that He will daze you with true riches beyond your imagination.

Embrace the call to serve, and watch as God pours out His blessings in your life. His promise of prosperity is not merely a distant hope; it is a reality for those who prioritize His kingdom and engage in the mission of saving souls.

Confession:

I declare that I take no thought for my life; I deny myself and take up my cross daily in soul winning. I am a savior of men. Amen.

Further Reading:

Mark 8:34 “And when he had called the people unto him with his disciples also, he said unto them, Whosoever will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.”

Mark 10:21-23 “Then Jesus beholding him loved him, and said unto him, One thing thou lackest: go thy way, sell whatsoever thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, take up the cross, and follow me. And he was sad at that saying, and went away grieved: for he had great possessions. And Jesus looked round about, and saith unto his disciples, How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God!”
