How Much Will He Clothe You?
By Liyabona03 Ā· September 19, 2026
Good News Translation: And why worry about clothes? Look how the wild flowers grow: they do not work or make clothes for themselves. 29 But I tell you that not even King Solomon with all his wealth had clothes as beautiful as one of these flowers. 30 It is God who clothes the wild grass—grass that is here today and gone tomorrow, burned up in the oven. Won't he be all the more sure to clothe you? What little faith you have!
Adding on to what was shared by a fellow “Flocker”😅, in Deuteronomy 8:2, on “Remaining in the fire until he brings you out of it”, it reminded me of Matthew 6:28-30.
Imagine God taking the time to dress the flowers? Imagine how he could clothe you as his child? Genesis 1:27, says he made us in his likeness, so how much more will he clothe you, since he has made you so precious!
Deuteronomy 8:2, reminds us that the wilderness is not paradise and we want to leave immediately - valid!! But we opt to leave not understanding that we need to go through the wilderness at times, for God to teach us lessons or for him to properly clothes us for the next chapter(s) of our lives.
If we look at how God has clothed each and every flower with such detail and beauty!!( A song by Elevation Worship &Maverick City, says “if he dresses the lillies with beauty and splendour, how much more will he clothe you?!)
Imagine how much more is he, clothing and moulding you in the mist of the wilderness, as his child who has been created in his likeness.
Our journey of salvation is not easy but God reassures is in Psalm 23:4 - though we may walk in the valley of the shadow of death, we should fear no evil, for he is with us. As heartbreaking, frustrating and painful as the wilderness is, let us remind ourselves that we are being clothed, with more than just the beauty and splendour of the lillies.
