SERMON ON THE MOUNT: Do not worry. / BERGPREDIKASIE: Moenie Bekommerd Wees nie.

Wednesday 27 January 2016. 

WORD OF THE DAY:

(Psalm 121:1,2)

1. I will lift up my eyes to the hills - from whence comes my help?  

2. My help comes from the Lord, 

Who made heaven and earth. 

MESSAGE OF THE DAY:

DO NOT WORRY:

(Matthew 6:25-34)

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 about what you will put on. Isn't there more to life than food, and more to the body than clothing?

26. "Look at the birds in the sky: they do not sow or reap, or gather into barns, yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Aren't you more valuable than they are? 

27. "Which of you by worrying can add even one hour to his life?

28. "So why do you worry about clothing? Think about how the flowers of the field grow; they do not work or spin. 

29. "And yet I say to you: not even Solomon in all his glory was clothed like one of these! 

30. "Now if this is how God clothes the wild grass which is here today, and tomorrow is tossed into the fire to heat the oven, won't He clothe you even more, you people of little faith?

31. "Therefore do not worry saying: 'What will we eat?' or 'What will we drink?' or 'What will we wear?'

32. "For after all these things the gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need them.

33. "But seek first the kingdom of God and righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. 

34. "Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Today has enough trouble of its own."

WOORD VAN DIE DAG: 

(Psalm 121:1,2)

1. Ek slaan my oë op na die berge, waar sal my hulp vandaan kom?

2. My hulp is van die Here, wat hemel en aarde gemaak het. 

BOODSKAP VAN DIE DAG:

MOENIE BEKOMMERD WEES NIE:

(Matthéüs 6:25-34)

25. "Daarom sê Ek vir julle: Moenie julle kwel oor jul lewe - wat julle sal eet en wat julle sal drink nie; of oor jul liggaam - wat julle sal aantrek nie. Is die lewe nie meer as die voedsel en die liggaam as die klere nie?

26. "Kyk na die voëls van die hemel; hulle saai nie en hulle maai nie, en hulle bring nie bymekaar in skure nie, en tog voed julle hemelse Vader hulle. Is julle nie meer werd as hulle nie?

27. "Wie tog onder julle kan deur hom te kwel, een el by sy lengte voeg?

28. "En wat kwel julle jul oor klere? Let op die lelies van die veld, hoe hulle groei; hulle arbei nie en hulle spin nie;

29. "En Ek sê vir julle dat selfs Salomo in al sy heerlikheid, nie bekleed was soos een van hulle nie. 

30. "As God dan die gras van die veld wat vandag daar is, en môre in 'n oond gegooi word, so beklee, hoeveel temeer vir julle kleingelowiges?

31. "Daarom moet julle jul nie kwel en sê: 'Wat sal ons eet,' of 'wat sal ons drink,' of 'wat sal ons aantrek nie?'

32. "Want na al hierdie goed soek die heidene; want julle hemelse Vader weet dat julle al hierdie dinge nodig het. 

33. "Maar soek eers die koninkryk van God en Sy geregtigheid, en al hierdie dinge sal vir julle bygevoeg word. 

34. "Kwel julle dus nie oor môre nie, want môre sal hom oor sy eie dinge kwel. Elke dag het genoeg aan sy eie kwaad. 

(God willing and by His marvellous grace and mercy, I will share the Word with you as often as I possibly can. /

As dit die wil van God is en deur Sy wonderbare genade en barmhartigheid, sal ek die Woord met u deel so dikwels as wat ek moontlik kan.)
