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. Matthew 6:31–33
I encourage you to take
some time each day to get the revelation of your righteousness in Christ deep
into your spirit. Meditate on it and declare it every day. It will put courage
in your heart and bring an unshakable peace to your soul. It will energize your
faith when you pray and give you a confident expectation to receive good things
from your heavenly Father.
I believe that’s why our
heavenly Father, in knowing the things that we need daily, tells us not to
worry about them. What are we supposed to do then? We are to seek first “His
[Jesus’] righteousness”—the righteousness that He has given us—and all the
things that we need will be added to us.
Beloved, when you know that
your right standing with God always puts Him on your side, every fear will melt
away like butter on a hot day. For if God is for you, who or what can
successfully prevail against you (see Rom. 8:31)? (Article
