You Cannot Serve God and Riches
Pastor Scott Brenner Matthew 6:24~34
Matthew 6:24-34
[6:24] "No one can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will be loyal to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon.
[6:25] "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 on. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing?
[6:26] "Look at the 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?
[6:27] "Which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature?
[6:28] "So why do you worry about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin;
[6:29] "and yet I say to you that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.
[6:30] "Now if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will He not much more clothe you, O you of little faith?
[6:31] "Therefore do not worry, saying, 'What shall we eat?' or 'What shall we drink?' or 'What shall we wear?'
[6:32] "For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things.
[6:33] "But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.
[6:34] "Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.
[6:24] "No one can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will be loyal to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon.
