THE PLANT ITSELF (Grass of the field) V.30 CONSIDER THE LILIES Matt 6:28-30 THE PLANT ITSELF (Grass of the field) V.30 Lilies are a large family including vastly different varieties such as: the desert Joshua tree, asparagus, and onions as well as the familiar tulip, Easter and Tiger lilies Many varieties of lilies grow wild in the valleys and along the sea-side in Palestine The lily is referred to many times in the Bible: Song of Sol 2:1,2,16; 4:5; 5:13; 6:2,3; Hos 14:5

CONSIDER THE LILIES HOW THEY GROW Matt 6:28-30 They toil not - the plants grow very actively with no evidence of struggle for survival Neither do they spin - they are totally unconcerned about appearance Yet they outdo Solomon in glory

SOME PRACTICAL OBSERVATIONS CONSIDER THE LILIES Matt 6:28-30 SOME PRACTICAL OBSERVATIONS God is - Gen 1:1; Psa 19:1 God's power - Gen 1:3,6,9,11,14,20,24,26,29.31 God's law - Gen 1:11,12; Rom 8:2 The folly of worry - Phil 4:11-13; 2Tim 1:12; Phil 4:6,7; 1Sam 16:7; 1Pet 3:3,4 The brevity of life - Job 7:6; 9:26; Jas 4:14; Matt 6:30; 1Pet 1:24

CONSIDER THE LILIES Matt 6:28-30 They follow God's law - He blesses, cares for and adorns them and he cares more for us than them Likewise, then if we follow God's law unquestioningly he will care for us Are we following God's Law? If the lily fails to follow the pattern of nature it will die and if we fail to follow God's divine law we will die spiritually!
