Matthew 6:25-34
Page | 1
25 
Therefore I tell you, stop being  perpetually uneasy (anxious and
[a]

worried) about your life, what you shall eat or what you shall drink; or
about your body, what you shall put on. Is not life greater [in quality]
than food, and the body [far above and more excellent] than clothing?
26 
Look at the birds of the air; they neither sow nor reap nor gather into
barns, and yet your heavenly Father keeps feeding them. Are you not
worth much more than they?
27 
And who of you by worrying and being anxious can add one unit of
measure (cubit) to his stature or to the  span of his life?
[b]

28 
And why should you be anxious about clothes? Consider the lilies of
the field and  learn thoroughly how they grow; they neither toil nor
[c]

spin.
29 
Yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his  magnificence (excellence,
[d]

dignity, and grace) was not arrayed like one of these.

30 
But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is
alive and green and tomorrow is tossed into the furnace, will He not
much more surely clothe you, O you of little faith?
31 
Therefore do not worry and be anxious, saying, What are we going to
have to eat? or, What are we going to have to drink? or, What are we
going to have to wear?
32 
For the Gentiles (heathen) wish for and crave and diligently seek all
these things, and your heavenly Father knows well that you need them
all.
33 
But seek ( aim at and strive after) first of all His kingdom and His
[e]

righteousness ( His way of doing and being right), and then all these
[f]

things  taken together will be given you besides.

[g]

34 
So do not worry or be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will
have worries and anxieties of its own. Sufficient for each day is its own
trouble

I. Intro
Page | 2

The last couple of years have turned so many worlds upside

down. For some of us, they’ve been the hardest years of our lives
—each for different reasons.

PANDEMIC (Started Around this time 2 years ago) December 2019

 Lockdown / Hard lockdown
 Quarantine Pass
 No tutees
 Cannot work as an OFW
 Businesses are closing

But regardless of the circumstances, I’ve noticed a commonality

when talking and writing with others. We can all relate to the
theme of HARDSHIP. So, I may say “yeah, me too.” Sometimes,
just knowing that you’re not alone is comforting in and of itself.

Diskarte (On Line Selling)

 Chocolates
 Alcohol
 RTW
 Shampoo
 Suka/Toyo/Corned Beef
 Mask (N95)
 Face Shield

But the one person who is always there to comfort us, who never
leaves us, and who never stops taking care of us is God. He is
Jehovah-Jireh, meaning “the Lord will provide.” We don’t need to
doubt His provision, because if He’s even taking care of the birds
and the lilies (Matthew 6:25-34), there’s no reason why we need
to be filled with FEAR that He’s going to provide for us, His very
children.

During Pandemic we started to have a good source of Income;
Page | 3  Online Selling

 Importer of Smoked / Boneless Galunggong / Bangus / Kalaso

- Positive COVID19 July 2020 but during that time we are able
to buy an android TV / speaker
- Have to take care of Teacher Sally despite of all the risks
(Asthma / Joey / Jessie)
Maraming nangyari maganda during the pandemic
- Have our own room / NMAX / PCX / Vios
- Nakumpleto ang gamit sa bahay Ref, Washing Machine,
Freezer, Oven, Air Fryer mga bagay na di naming nabili nung
OFW pa ako … at di din naming nabili nung time na ang
daming tutorials.
To think na di masyadong nakakalabas at that time … most of the
time nasa bahay lang … kumpleto ang tulog … maraming time
together with the family and more importantly quality time spent
with GOD kasi di nagmamadali na maghatid ng students sa school
Wala din tutees…. Ang sarap ng mga food ang daming foods …
kabi kabila ang Lazada / Shoppee / Grabfood / Lalamove …this is
not to brag but to testify how God have blessed us tremendously
even though may Pandemic …. Looking back on these things that
happened I remembered that during those times kumapit kami ng
mahigpit kay LORD kaya nawala ang TAKOT at lahat ng pagpapala
naranasan namin.

HARDSHIP brings FEAR

At pag manaig ang takot sira lahat ng diskarte mo sablay lahat di

makikita ang mga opportunities open window na pala ikaw ayaw
mo pang sungaban dahil takot ….alam nyo po pa till now may mga
churches pa rin na di nag face to face kasi takot pa din  …may
mga pastors pa din na di lumalabas naka self lockdown pa din kasi
nanatili ang takot dahil one time halos sunod sunod na puro
pastors ang nagging biktima ng COVID.

Pag ganito ang mangyayari mapapa GOODBYE … ka na lang talaga

Goodbye … Friends
Goodbye ….Church
Goodbye ….. Family
Goodbye …..Church
Goodbye …. WORLD

During the height of Pandemic there is an incredible increase in

the rate of SUICIDE

But the message in Matthew 6:25-34 assuring us that GOD is

Good, He Provides, He will not Leave us, He will Sustain …. He
brought us this far and there is NOOOOOOO reason that He will
give up on us NOWWWWWW

God is telling us this message today

GOOODBYEEEEEEEEEE . ……FEAR
I remind myself that it may have been a hard year, but I still have
breath in my lungs. “The lilies have clothes, the river still flows,
and the sun’s still shining.” It might have been a hard year, but
God is still good.
 Goodbye….

III. Conclusion
Page | 5

Next time you’re filled with worry, I encourage you to look back
and see the ways the Lord has provided for you in the past. Give
thanks. Remind yourself why you’re still here and that He’s got
you. Every fear, anxiety and stronghold is swept away in God’s
presence. (LILIM)

And while you’re reflecting, declare these words a little louder:

“Saying GOODBYE TO MY FEARS. Hello, good morning, I can see

the light. I’ve got brand new eyes, time to say GOODBYE……
GOODBYE Fears!!!
