Casting
the whole of your care [all your anxieties, all your worries, all your
concerns, once and for all] on Him, for He cares for you affectionately {and}
cares about you watchfully (1 Peter 5:7 AMP).
Some people love to
worry. Anxiety has become a lifestyle they almost can’t do without. It’s either
they’re worried about their families or their jobs or about money or the
country; they always have something to worry about. Take worry away from them,
and they’ll probably not be happy. What an unfortunate way to live!
As a Christian, you
can’t live your life that way, not after the Word tells you to cast the whole
of yourcares on Him. Someone might say, "I worry a little bit," no;
don’t worry at all. The Word says, to cast all your cares upon Him; not some
cares. Let Him have all your anxieties and worries, so you’d be free to serve
Him. Don’t cast them on Him in the morning and take them back at night time. Do
it once and for all.
The Lord cares for you
affectionately; He watches over you lovingly, to show Himself strong on your
behalf (2 Chronicles 16:9). He’s very personal with you. The Bible says He
rejoices over you with singing (Zephaniah 3:17). He knows you by name; He’s
concerned about everything that has to do with you. No detail about your life
is too insignificant for Him to get involved in. His delight is for you to live
joyfully in peace, prosperity, and righteousness every day. He doesn’t want you
to focus on problems or challenges; He wants you rather to focus on Him, and
trust Him with your life. He cares for you affectionately.
Prayer
Dear Father, you’re my
nourisher, sustainer, and bread-provider; my trust and hope is in you;
therefore I’m confident of a glorious today, and a rewarding tomorrow, knowing
that your perfect will shall be accomplished in me, and through me, in the Name
of Jesus. Amen.
