25 "For this reason I say to you, do not be worried about your life, as to what you will eat or what you will drink; nor for your
body, as to what you will put on. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing? 26 "Look at the birds of the air,
that they do not sow, nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not worth much more
than they? 27 "And who of you by being worried can add a single hour to his life? 28 "And why are you worried about clothing?
Observe how the lilies of the field grow; they do not toil nor do they spin, 29 yet I say to you that not even Solomon in all his
glory clothed himself like one of these. 30 "But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which is alive today and tomorrow is
thrown into the furnace, will He not much more clothe you? You of little faith! 31 "Do not worry then, saying, `What will we eat?'
or `What will we drink?' or `What will we wear for clothing?' 32 "For the Gentiles eagerly seek all these things; for your
heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. 33 "But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these
things will be added to you. 34 "So do not worry about tomorrow; for tomorrow will care for itself. Each day has enough trouble

Matthew 6:19. Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and
steal. 20 "But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys, and where thieves do not
break in or steal; 21 for where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. 22 "The eye is the lamp of the body; so then if your
eye is clear, your whole body will be full of light. 23 "But if your eye is bad, your whole body will be full of darkness. If then the
light that is in you is darkness, how great is the darkness! 24 "No one can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and
love the other, or he will be devoted to one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and wealth, or money. The New
American Standard Bible 6:19 "

Beginning of the creation of God, says this: 15 `I know your deeds, that you are neither cold nor hot; I wish that you
were cold or hot. 16 `So because you are lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold, I will spit you out of My mouth. 17
`Because you say, "I am rich, and have become wealthy, and have need of nothing," and you do not know that you are
wretched and miserable and poor and blind and naked, 18 I advise you to buy from Me gold refined by fire so that you
may become rich, and white garments so that you may clothe yourself, and that the shame of your nakedness will not
be revealed; and eye salve to anoint your eyes so that you may see. 19 `Those whom I love, I reprove and discipline;
therefore be zealous and repent. 20 `Behold, I stand at the door and knock; if anyone hears My voice and opens the

Luke 21:29 And he spake to them a parable; Behold the fig tree, and all the trees; 30 When they now shoot forth, ye see and
know of your own selves that summer is now nigh at hand. 31 So likewise ye, when ye see these things come to pass, know
ye that the kingdom of God is nigh at hand. 32 Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass away, till all be fulfilled.
33 Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away. 34 And take heed to yourselves, lest at any time
your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares of this life, and so that day come upon you
unawares. 35 For as a snare shall it come on all them that dwell on the face of the whole earth. 36 Watch ye therefore, and
pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the
Son of man.

Warning To The Church To Focus On The Lords Plan
People Are More Concerned About How God Will Bless Them Financially, And In Their Personal Lives,
Than They Are About Living A Life The Lord Is Pleased With, And Doing The Things The Lord Has Called
Us To Accomplish. Many People Attend The Church Building, But They Have Not Become The Church.

Why Is This?
Becoming More And More Like The World ?
Seeking The Things The World Is Seeking?
A Life Of Materialism?
Why Is This ?
They Have No Commitment To The Lord
Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness,
and all these things will be added to you
and all these things will be added to you
Remember This, If The World Is Pleased With You, You Are Not Pleasing The Lord
