Are you anxious about your financial state? Many believing Christians live as if they are orphans or that they have an irresponsible Father. Yet they are living purely out of ignorance or disobedience. If men know how to give good gifts to their children how much more God your Father! It's time to seek the Lord and find Him. This post emphasizes that you should not be anxious about anything as a child of the Almighty God.
Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ 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 tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble - Matthew 6:31-34 (NKJV).
Many Christians toil all day and night and start all over the next day only to still subject themselves to anxiety. Should they sit and ask themselves questions and seek answers in line with God's word, they will discover that they have only wasted their energy and time by worrying and in the process displeased their Heavenly Father (Hebrews 11:6). Now, this is not that you are not to work or think towards solving a challenge but that you should not be anxious about anything.
Your Father in heaven is a loving and responsible Father. He knows your needs and is more than capable to provide all your needs. If He gave His only son for you, how will He not with Christ freely give you all things (Romans 8:32)? All He asks of you is that you should believe in Him as your Father and seek first His kingdom (Matthew 6:33). Having anxiety shows that you don't trust Him to play His role as your Father.
