Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said, “Never will I leave you never will I forsake you.” Hebrews 13:5 But if we have food and clothing, we will be content with that. For we brought nothing into the world, and we can take nothing out of it. Philippians 4:11–12īut godliness with contentment is great gain. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well-fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I am not saying this because I am in need, for I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances. Then some soldiers asked him, “And what should we do?” He replied, “Don’t extort money and don’t accuse people falsely-be content with your pay.” Luke 3:14 Give me neither poverty nor riches, but give me only my daily bread. Job 36:11īetter the little that the righteous have than the wealth of many wicked for the power of the wicked will be broken, but the Lord upholds the righteous. If they obey and serve him, they will spend the rest of their days in prosperity and their years in contentment. Here are several scriptures about contentment that can help change our outlook on what we have-or don’t have. Helen Keller once expressed her perspective on contentment this way: “I cried because I had no shoes until I met a man who had no feet.” There are many benefits associated with contentment, including reduced anxiety and increased happiness.īeing content also helps us stop comparing ourselves to others. Once we appreciate God’s provision and become grateful for what we have, we can then experience a true sense of contentment. Philippians 4:19Ĭommand those who are rich in this present world not to be arrogant nor to put their hope in wealth, which is so uncertain, but to put their hope in God, who richly provides us with everything for our enjoyment. He who did not spare his own Son, but gave him up for us all-how will he not also, along with him, graciously give us all things? Romans 8:32Īnd my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus. “If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today, and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, how much more will he clothe you-you of little faith!” Luke 12:28 Each day has enough trouble of its own.” Matthew 6:33–34 Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. “But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Are you not much more valuable than they?” Matthew 6:25–26 Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes? Look at the birds of the air they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink or about your body, what you will wear. Take delight in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart. Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we trust in the name of the Lord our God. The following scriptures about provision include promises that when we seek and trust the Lord, he will provide for all of our needs. He is our Heavenly Father, and as a good Father he takes responsibility in providing for us.
We do this because God is the source of all that we have. To reduce financial stress, it’s important to put your hope in God rather than in money. We often ask ourselves questions like, “Will I have enough money to pay my bills this month?” or “What will I do if I lose my job?”
