sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him

unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock: And the rain…

…descended, and the floods came, and the

winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a

rock. 26 And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand:

27 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was

the fall of it. 28 And it came to pass, when Jesus had ended these sayings,

the people were astonished at his

doctrine”

shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built

his house upon the sand: And the rain descended, and the floods came…

Matt 7:24-28 …and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and

secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be

evil”

Matt 16:26 “For what is a man profited, if he shall

gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what

commandments: and his commandments are not

grievous”

Focus

Matt 23:39 “For I say unto you, Ye shall not

see me henceforth, till ye shall say, Blessed is he that cometh in the name

of the Lord”

People in violation to this command:“Be anxious for

nothing”

Do not “worry”

If the government

came and haled us to prison.

Remember Paul did his best

work in prison.

We always have a proper course

of action.

Acts 5:29 “Then Peter and the other

apostles answered and said, We ought to obey God rather than

men”

Heb 9:27 “And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the

judgment”

all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be

made for all men…

1 Tim 2:1-4 …For kings, and for all that are in

authority; that we may lead a quiet and

exceeding and eternal weight of glory; While we

look not at the things which are seen, but at the

things which are not…

2 Cor 4:16-18 …seen: for the things which are seen

are temporal; but the things which are not seen

are eternal”

“Light affliction”Beaten 5 times by Jews,

shipwrecked, 3 times with Roman rod,

Pray to God – and let it go!

1 Pet 5:7 “Casting all your care upon him; for he careth

for you”

Matt 6:25-30 “Therefore I say unto you, Take no

thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or

what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body…

Matt 6:25-30 …what ye shall put on. Is not the

life more than meat, and the body than raiment? Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not…

Matt 6:25-30 …neither do they reap, nor gather

into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much

better than they?...

Matt 6:25-30 …Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature? And why

take ye thought for raiment? Consider the…

Matt 6:25-30 …lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not,

neither do they spin: And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon…

Matt 6:25-30 …in all his glory was not arrayed

like one of these. Wherefore, if God so

clothe the grass of the field, which to day is…

Matt 6:25-30 …and to morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye

of little faith?”

Abundant life

us, who can be against us?”

Matt 18:3 “And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of

heaven”

Children trust their parents.

We are to trust our Father in Heaven.

Act like your own the world, you don’t, but your Father does.

Remember Job

Job 1:20-22 “Then Job arose, and rent his mantle, and shaved his head, and

fell down upon the ground, and worshipped, And said,

Naked came I out of…

Job 1:20-22 …my mother's womb, and naked shall I return thither: the LORD gave, and the LORD hath

taken away; blessed be the name of the LORD. In all…

Job 1:20-22 …this Job sinned not, nor charged

God foolishly”

Remember David

Psa 23:1 “A Psalm of David. The LORD is my shepherd; I shall

not want”

Psa 23:1-6 “A Psalm of David. The LORD is my shepherd; I

shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he

leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul: he

leadeth me in the paths of…

Psa 23:1-6 …righteousness for his name's sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no

evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.

Thou preparest a table before…

Psa 23:1-6 …me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest

my head with oil; my cup runneth over. Surely goodness

and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever”

Remember the Birds

Matt 6:26 “Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not,

neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your

heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much

better than they?”

Matt 6:28 “And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the

field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they

spin”

John 10:9 “I am the door: by me if any man enter in,

he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and

find pasture”

Remember the Mansion

John 14:1-4 “Let not your heart be troubled: ye

believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father's

house are many mansions: if it were…

John 14:1-4 …not so, I would have told you. I go

to prepare a place for you. And if I go and

prepare a place for you, I will come again, and…

John 14:1-4 …receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also. And whither I go ye know,

and the way ye know”

"Be Anxious About

Nothing"

Rom 6:16-17 “Know ye not, that to whom ye yield

yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness? But God…

Rom 6:16-17 …be thanked, that ye were the servants of

sin, but ye have obeyed from the heart that form of

doctrine which was delivered you”

Gal 3:26-27 “For ye are all the children of God by

faith in Christ Jesus. For as many of you as have

been baptized into Christ have put on Christ”

1 Pet 3:21 “The like figure whereunto even baptism doth

also now save us (not the putting away of the filth of the

flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward

God,) by the resurrection of Jesus Christ”

1 Pet 5:4 “And when the chief Shepherd shall

appear, ye shall receive a crown of glory that fadeth not away”
