the Lord is coming: be not in any manner of sollicitude, but in all your occasions lay your requests before God by prayer and supplication accompany'd by thanksgiving. and the favour of God, which surpasses all comprehension, shall keep your hearts and mind attach'd to Jesus Christ.

Matthew 6:25-34

I therefore direct you, not to be sollicitous, with regard to life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor with regard to the body, what clothes ye shall wear: Is not life it self a greater gift than food; and the body a greater gift than rayment? consider the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor lay up any stores; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are not ye of much greater value than they? who by all his sollicitude can add one moment to his age?read more.
And as for rayment, why should that give you pain? consider the lillies of the field how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin. and yet I tell you, even Solomon with all his magnificence, was not arrayed like one of these. now if God thus adorns the flower of the field, which thriving to day, is to morrow thrown into the oven, how much more shall he provide for you, if you have any degree of faith? therefore make no such sollicitous enquiries, as what shall we eat? or what shall we drink? or how shall we be clothed? things which the Gentiles are so thoughtful about, and which your heavenly Father knows that you want. but first seek the kingdom of God, and that righteousness which leads to it, and all these things shall be superadded. be not therefore sollicitous about the morrow: for the morrow shall be taken up with the cares of the morrow, the trouble of the day is sufficient for one day.

Matthew 11:28-30

Believe in me, all ye that labour under oppression, and I will give you relief. take my yoke upon you, and learn to be meek like me, and of an humble temper: and ye shall enjoy tranquillity of mind. for my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.

Ephesians 6:10-11

Finally, my brethren, place your strength in the transcendent power of the Lord. put on the set of divine armour, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.

Luke 12:25-26

but which of you, with all his disquietude, can add one moment to the period of his life? if then you can't effect so small a matter, why are you disquieted about a much longer time?

And as for rayment, why should that give you pain? consider the lillies of the field how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin. and yet I tell you, even Solomon with all his magnificence, was not arrayed like one of these. now if God thus adorns the flower of the field, which thriving to day, is to morrow thrown into the oven, how much more shall he provide for you, if you have any degree of faith? therefore make no such sollicitous enquiries, as what shall we eat? or what shall we drink? or how shall we be clothed? things which the Gentiles are so thoughtful about, and which your heavenly Father knows that you want. but first seek the kingdom of God, and that righteousness which leads to it, and all these things shall be superadded. be not therefore sollicitous about the morrow: for the morrow shall be taken up with the cares of the morrow, the trouble of the day is sufficient for one day.

Luke 12:22-34

Wherefore (said he to his disciples,) be not sollicitous for your life, what ye shall eat; nor for the body, what ye shall put on. the life is more than meat, and the body is more than raiment. consider the ravens: for they neither sow nor reap: nor have cellar or barn: are not you of much greater value than the fowls? read more.
but which of you, with all his disquietude, can add one moment to the period of his life? if then you can't effect so small a matter, why are you disquieted about a much longer time? consider the lillys how they grow: they neither toil nor spin: and yet, I tell you, that Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. now if God thus cloaths the flowers, which exist to-day in the field, and to-morrow are thrown into the oven: how much more will he cloath you, O distrustful men? therefore don't be concern'd about what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; but lay aside all your anxiety: for it is enough that the Gentiles are so concern'd about these things: as for you, your father is acquainted with all your wants. therefore do you rather seek the kingdom of God, and then all your necessities will be fully supply'd. fear not, ye little flock, for it is your father's good pleasure to grant you the kingdom. sell your possessions and give alms. lay up for yourselves a stock not subject to decay, a treasure in the heavens that will never fail, where no thief can approach, nor moth can spoil. for where your treasure is, there likewise will your affections be.
