The Daily Needs of God’s People
Jesus Christ spoke of the vital essential needs for human existence and the emphasis
that is placed on human life:
Matthew 6:25-34 “Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life, what
you will eat or what you will drink; nor about your body, what you will put

birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, yet
your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? . . .
Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we
drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ . . . For your heavenly Father knows you
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. Therefore do NOT
worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will take care of its own things.
Sufficient for the day is its own troubles.”
“I Will Never Leave You”
During the difficult trials with great needs in life, it is sometimes hard to grasp with faith
that Jesus Christ has promised to always be with each one of His true people, the Elect,
nevertheless it is true; just as He said:
Matthew 28:20 “. . . and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the
age.” Amen.
With all of the wonderful caring promises from the Almighty God in heaven, no thought
should ever be permitted to enter one’s mind to disobey this holy commandment of
God:
Exodus 20:17 “You shall not covet your neighbor’s
house; you shall not covet your neighbor’s wife,
