What Is the Root Cause of Anxiety? You Cannot Serve God and Mammon | Sermon on the Mount Pt 28 | Straight Bible

STRAIGHT BIBLE SATURDAY on Nephilim Death Squad.

What is the root cause of anxiety? In Matthew 6:24-34 (KJV), Jesus says you cannot serve God and mammon, and serving mammon only feeds anxiety. "Take no thought" doesn't mean do nothing. It means take no anxiety: do the work, then, having done all, stand (Ephesians 6:13).

Sermon on the Mount Pt 28, hosted by Matttttt Hepner and TopLobsta.

The birds of the air work every day and the lilies of the field can only stand, yet God feeds and clothes both. Matttttt walks through working heartily as unto the Lord (Colossians 3:22-24), clean hands and a pure heart (Psalm 24:3-5), your labor is not in vain (1 Corinthians 15:58), and David's mighty men, where Shammah stood his ground in the field of lentils (2 Samuel 23). Your heavenly Father, not mammon, is the provider.

Then the great "stand still" moments: Moses at the Red Sea and God asking "Wherefore criest thou unto me?" (Exodus 14), the Red Sea as a type of baptism (1 Corinthians 10:1-2), Peter asleep in chains (Acts 12), Hannah's prayer (1 Samuel 1), "Be still, and know that I am God" (Psalm 46:10), and 2 Timothy 1:7: "God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind."

What's your bean field, the one place God has called you to stand? Tell us.
