Checking Your Motives. The Lord's Prayer. Trust>Worry.
"But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be provided for you". Matthew 6:33
In this episode, we continue reading Jesus' Sermon on the Mount in Matthew Chapter 6, focusing on the profound lessons Jesus imparts about our private acts of righteousness. We examine the importance of the right motivation behind our giving to the needy, our prayers, and our fasting, stressing that these should not be performed for public admiration but as sincere expressions of our devotion to God. By exploring the Lord's Prayer, we're reminded of the significance of adoration, submission, and dependence on God, offering a model for how we should approach Him in our daily lives. This chapter challenges us to reflect on our motivations and to cultivate a relationship with God that thrives in the quiet and unseen moments, encouraging us to live our faith genuinely and wholeheartedly.
As we uncover the teachings on worry and trust in God, we're invited to reassess our priorities and the place of faith in our lives. Jesus' vivid illustrations of God's care for the birds of the air and the flowers of the field serve as powerful reminders of His provision and love for us. We're encouraged to seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, with the assurance that our needs will be met. This episode guides us in learning to live by faith, not by sight, teaching us to focus on today's responsibilities and to trust God with tomorrow, fostering a deeper, more trusting relationship with our Creator.
