God Cares

Introduction

Care: the provision of what is necessary for the health, welfare, maintenance, and protection of someone or something

Is God really a personal God. Does He really care. Are there any scriptures that say so?

Luke 12:27–28

5 reasons we have so little faith in God's care for us

1. Our Pride gets in the way

1 Peter 5:6–7

The "I can do it myself" attitude can be your biggest hindrance

John 15:5

Proverbs 3:5–6

2. Our Plans get in the way

Proverbs 16:9

Psalm 37:23–24

When God is shifting us from our will to His will, we often stumble

But God cares enough and stays close enough, to get us back on track

3. Our Head gets in the way

John 11:21–27

The knowledge in your head will try to block the faith in your heart

4. Our Hurt gets in the way

Psalm 34:18–19

5. Our Circumstances get in the way

John 16:32

The Father with me changes how I see the circumstances around me

John 16:33

Conclusion

God doesn’t care that I have troubles.

He only cares that the troubles don’t have me.

Confession

Father God, in this season, I will have faith in Your care and concern for me. I don't have to do things on my own, because You've got me all taken care of. In Jesus' name Amen.
