In the beginning, God charged Adam with taking care of the earth. Throughout the Bible we read where God has since charged us with caring for the elderly, the widow and the orphan. We’re also to take care of the poor and needy. In all that caring for others, we might wonder who is supposed to care for us. Again, the Bible is clear on this one. It says that God will take care of you. We worry so much about things that are out of our control, but are in His. He is not going to leave you or forsake you. He’s clothed the fields with flowers and made sure the birds have food. After reminding us of this, Jesus said, “Aren’t you more valuable than them?” When we seek His kingdom, first, He takes care of everything else for us.
Here are some Bible verses on God taking care of you:
1. As a shepherd cares for his sheep on the day that he is among his scattered flock, so I will care for My sheep; and I will rescue them from all the places to which they were scattered on a cloudy and gloomy day.
Ezekiel 34:12 AMP
2. Give your burdens to the Lord, and he will take care of you. He will not permit the godly to slip and fall.
Psalms 55:22 NLT
3. Pour out all your worries and stress upon him and leave them there, for he always tenderly cares for you.
1 Peter 5:7 TPT
4. Therefore, angels are only servants—spirits sent to care for people who will inherit salvation.
Hebrews 1:14 NLT
5. Your righteousness is like the mighty mountains, your justice like the ocean depths. You care for people and animals alike, O Lord.
Psalms 36:6 NLT
