I know it is difficult not to take into your mind a thought of worry when you hear that a person has had an unfortunate situation happen. Your mind travels to an imaginary situation that will probably never happen to you, but because of fear the situation projects the same bad situation into your future.
Jesus talked about that same scenario when he taught about taking no thought or care for your future, what you will eat or what you will drink. He said that you should not fear an unfortunate thing happening. He said that I feed the birds of the air and adorn the lilies of the field. He said that there is enough evil available to have things happen in the future without you worrying about them and inviting them into your life by worrying.
When worrying that bad things might happen occurs in your thoughts, the images of those bad things invade your mind and the devil takes that as permission to bring them about. The imagination of the bad things happening are an act of permission for him to call them into your life.
When you do not worry about bad situations happening in your future, they never will because you have not fearfully imagined them and passed on to the father of fear your agreement with his participation in the matter.
Jesus was very emphatic about teaching you not to worry. He knew that worrying, fretting, griping and moaning would block My entrance into your life to bring My blessings to you.
Jesus knew all about the battle in the spiritual dimension for your mind, the battle between good and evil. He knew that there are consequences to entertaining the thoughts of evil deeds possibly happening because when you fear things you are agreeing with the devil's ability to produce evil actions in your life. Your obsessions with those thoughts will enhance his ability to do just that.
What Jesus was teaching was why should you curse your own future by agreeing with the evil that the devil might do instead of agreeing with the wonderful things that I can do when you agree with Me instead of agreeing with evil.
Jesus never talked just to hear himself talk. He never talked just so people could quote him for his eloquence. He taught spiritual principles that are truth and what will make your life the abundant life that I promised.
Heed the words of Jesus. He had inside information.
Love, God
