What
a light-bulb moment this should have been for them!...to learn that God in
heaven is their Father: vitally interested in how they give, how they pray and
even how they fast!
The audience of One: the Father
So how much
will they trust their heavenly Father to provide for them?
Guys, don’t
you realize?... Just as:
- The birds...your heavenly Father feedeth them
- God so clothes the grass of the field”, so also...
- “The Father shall reward thee openly...
Does the
Almighty God of the universe have the resources?
“For
thine is the kingdom, the power and the glory forever!”
(Compare
the reverence of the Lord’s Prayer with today’s ‘worship bands’)
Let’s not
forget... Ye cannot serve God and mammon! (wealth)
(Compare this with the money-making schemes of today’s churches)
What about
you and I?... are we seeking first the kingdom of God?
Remember...
“Without faith it is impossible to please... God”
“Without faith it is impossible to please... God”
Oh and by
the way... did you know?... some modern translations leave out fasting wherever
possible. What a disaster if we miss a feed!
