So don't be afraid, little flock

Hi fam,

It's a blessing and joy to have you here! Welcome!

Trust!

We are to put our trust, hope, expectations, belief, faith and dependence on God. Trust is a word we must hold dearly, it helps remove the stress, anxiety, the habits of worrying and over thinking.

Jeaus wants to carry our burdens, He doesn't want us to be smothered by them.

Let's pray:

Dear Lord, we thank you for your bread we receive it, let it take root and bear fruit and multiply. Let your Spirit move in us and through us, Amen.

Today we would be reading and learning from one of the teachings of Jesus, pay attention to the parts that minister to you and now let's enjoy.

Luke 12:22-34 (NLT)

22 Then turning to his disciples, Jesus said, "That is why I tell you not to worry about everyday life - whether you have enough food to eat or enough clothes to wear.

23 For life is more than food, and your body more than clothing.

24 Look at the ravens. They don't plant or harvest or store food in barns, for God feeds them. And you are far more valuable to him than any birds!

25 Can all your worries add a single moment to your life.

26 And if worry can't accomplish a little thing like that, what is the use of worrying over bigger things?

27 Look at the lilies and how they grow. They don't work or make their clothing, yet Solomon in all his glory was not dressed as beautifully as they are.

28 And if God cares so wonderfully for flowers that are here today and thrown in the fire tomorrow, he will certainly look after you. Why so you have so little faith?

29 "And don't be concerned about what to eat and what to drink. Don't worry about such things.

30 These things dominate the thoughts of unbelievers all over the world, but your Father already knows your needs.

31 Seek the kingdom of God above all else, and he will give you everything you need.

32 "So don't be afraid, little flock. For it gives your Father great happiness to give you the kingdom.

33 " Sell all your possessions and give to those in need. This will store up treasure for you in heaven! And the purses of heaven never get old or develop holes. Your treasure will be safe; no thief can steal it and no moth destroy it.

34 Wherever your treasure is, there the desires of your heart will also be.

Notes:

1.Do not worry about money, put your faith in Him, He is your source, He would cause unexpected opportunities to come your way.

2.What does it mean to sell your possessions, first of all who are we selling to?

Jesus is teaching us to give to the Lord, not donation, but to give our treasure to God. It's your gift in music. Your business and it's vision and goal.

Your writing and speaking skills, your comedy platform, your cooking skills and many more. God then blesses and refines it, He makes it better and gives you structure no matter the industry you are working in.

Then He says share it with the world, they've become solutions, to give to others and let them see God's glory.

The Lord would always keep you safe, this is His Kingdom. You are the Kingdom, go and build.

Prayer:

Father we receive, give us more insight, help us to do the hard things, give us your peace, we thank you for your love and we love you too, Amen.

Do you want to know Jesus, say with me:

Dear Jesus, come into my heart, I make you my Lord and Saviour, I repent of my sins, I believe you died on the cross ro reconcile me back to God, I receive your love and new life, Amen.

No more worries, build!
