So God's word says not to worry about what we will eat or drink or what we will wear, but instead to seek FIRST the Kingdom of God and that everything else will be added onto us; So what does that look like when money is tight? So What's that look like when our little kids are not so little anymore and they are growing faster than we can keep up with them – faster than we can buy more clothes? So What does that mean when the factory doesn't come back from their seasonal layoffs? So What's God's word mean to my life and yours in a recession?
Do we think that God's Word was valid to a particular point in history, but that He really didn't see our newest round of world and personal crises?
Of course not, He is THE eternal and all powerful God. That means He was in control before the world and every nation and all of our lives were created. He will be in control once all of this present age, all the nations, all the historic landmarks and all of our crises are over and gone. And He will still be in control when we are before His throne.
He's in control then, now and always – from eternity past to eternity future, there is no limit on Him. He's bigger than any problem you and I are dealing with. So again, “So What!?” How does His word affect us in the here and now?
