Matthew 6:25-34
25) Therefore, I tell you, don‘t be anxious for your life, what you will eat, or what you will drink; nor yet for your body, what you will put on. Isn‘t life more than food, and the body more than clothing?
26) See the birds of the sky, that they don‘t sow, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns. Your heavenly Father feeds them. Aren‘t you of much more value than they?
27) Which of you, by being anxious, can add one cubit to the measure of his life?
28) Why are you anxious about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow. They don‘t toil, neither do they spin,
29) yet I tell you that even Solomon in all his glory was not dressed like one of these.
30) But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today exists, and tomorrow is cast into the oven, won‘t he much more clothe you, you of little faith?
31) Therefore don‘t be anxious, saying, ‘What will we eat?‘, ‘What will we drink?‘ or, ‘With what will we be clothed?‘
32) For the Gentiles seek after all these things, for your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things.
33) But seek first God‘s Kingdom, and his righteousness; and all these things will be added to you.
34) Therefore don‘t be anxious for tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Each day‘s own evil is sufficient.
2 Chronicles 9:13-28
13) Now the weight of gold that came to Solomon in one year was six hundred and sixty-six talents of gold,
14) besides that which the traders and merchants brought: and all the kings of Arabia and the governors of the country brought gold and silver to Solomon.
15) King Solomon made two hundred bucklers of beaten gold; six hundred [shekels] of beaten gold went to one buckler.
16) [he made] three hundred shields of beaten gold; three hundred [shekels] of gold went to one shield: and the king put them in the house of the forest of Lebanon.
17) Moreover the king made a great throne of ivory, and overlaid it with pure gold.
18) nd there were six steps to the throne, with a footstool of gold, which were fastened to the throne, and stays on either side by the place of the seat, and two lions standing beside the stays.
19) Twelve lions stood there on the one side and on the other on the six steps: there was nothing like it made in any kingdom.
20) All king Solomon‘s drinking vessels were of gold, and all the vessels of the house of the forest of Lebanon were of pure gold: silver was nothing accounted of in the days of Solomon.
21) For the king had ships that went to Tarshish with the servants of Huram; once every three years came the ships of Tarshish, bringing gold, and silver, ivory, and apes, and peacocks.
22) So king Solomon exceeded all the kings of the earth in riches and wisdom.
23) All the kings of the earth sought the presence of Solomon, to hear his wisdom, which God had put in his heart.
24) They brought every man his tribute, vessels of silver, and vessels of gold, and clothing, armor, and spices, horses, and mules, a rate year by year.
25) Solomon had four thousand stalls for horses and chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen, that he bestowed in the chariot cities, and with the king at Jerusalem.
26) He ruled over all the kings from the River even to the land of the Philistines, and to the border of Egypt.
27) The king made silver to be in Jerusalem as stones, and cedars made he to be as the sycamore-trees that are in the lowland, for abundance.
28) They brought horses for Solomon out of Egypt, and out of all lands.
Philippians 4:4-8
4) Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I will say, Rejoice!
5) Let your mildness be known to all men. The Lord is at hand.
6) In nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God.
7) The peace of God, which passes all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus.
8) Finally, brothers, whatever things are true, whatever things are honorable, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report; if there is any virtue, and if there is any praise, think about these things.
Galatians 5:22-23
22) But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,
23) gentleness, and self-control. Against such things there is no law.
