With challenging needs, do not worry, avoid careless sleep, and keep seeking God.
Do not worry:
Jesus specifically warned against worrying in\u00a0Matthew 6:25-27<\/em><\/strong>,\u00a0\u201cTherefore I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or\u00a0what you will\u00a0drink; 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\u00a0Father\u00a0feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? \u00a0Which of you\u00a0by\u00a0worrying\u00a0can add one cubit to his stature?\u201d<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0
Are you with the burden of meeting challenging needs?
Are you worrying about not worshipping God?
Worrying will prompt one to question God wrongly instead of worshiping God.\u00a0\u00a0
God is a good God to meet the need.
Avoid\u00a0careless sleep:
One who is asleep will miscalculate the meeting of challenging needs.
Spiritually, to not sleep before God.
One that is asleep before God keeps self at a distance from God.
Psalm 13:3-4<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0mentions the danger of sleeping,\u00a0\u201cConsider and hear me, O LORD my God; enlighten my eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death; lest my enemy say, \u201cI have prevailed against him\u201d; lest those who trouble me rejoice when I\u00a0am moved.\u201d\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>
Are you sleeping spiritually or physically? Be awake before God and not become a victim of lack.
Keep seeking God:\u00a0
Are your challenging needs keeping you far from God or close to God?\u00a0
In your time of challenges, keep close and not far from God by seeking God.\u00a0Matthew 6:33-34<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0encourages,\u00a0\u201cBut seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and\u00a0all these things shall be added\u00a0to you. Therefore, do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.\u201d<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0
Are you giving up on seeking God in your challenges?\u00a0
Seek God diligently.
Deuteronomy 4:29 records, \u201cBut from there you will seek the Lord your God, and you will find Him if you seek Him with all your heart and\u00a0with all your\u00a0soul.\u201d<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0
Seeking God with all heart and soul keeps the focus on God regardless of challenging needs.
The Lost Son was far from God but discovered the need to return to God like the prodigal Son.\u00a0
Luke 15:17<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0states,\u00a0\u201cWhen the prodigal son came to himself\u2026\u201d<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0
The Lost son recognized his distance from his\u00a0father\u00a0to repent and return to his\u00a0father.
Why don\u2019t you rise and begin to cry for the mercy of God to draw you to Himself and not be a victim of wandering into the far from God?
To be far from God is a position to be missing of meeting needs before God.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
