(KJV) Matthew 7:1

Judge not, that ye be not judged.

Jesus condemns the habit of criticizing others while we ignore our own faults. Believers must first submit to God’s righteous examination and to the standards of His Word before attempting to evaluate and influence the conduct of others – particularly other Christians (Matthew 7:3-5). Judging in an unjust or unqualified manner also includes condemning or rejecting someone who is doing wrong without sincerely desiring to see the person turn to God and receive forgiveness (Luke 6:36-34). It is an attitude that would prefer God’s judgment on people before they respond to His mercy. 

1. This passage is often abused and taken out of context to defend behavior that is immoral and clearly contrary to the instruction in God’s Word. However, Christ is not denying the need to exercise discernment or make value judgments with respect to sin in others. We certainly must do this in order to avoid the sin ourselves. There also are times when we must speak out against certain behaviors that defy God and corrupt society – especially when those behaviors make their way into the church. Jesus commands us to identify false ministers within the church – those whose message is not consistent with God’s Word (Matthew 7:15). He also expects us to consider how a person’s character compares with the standards of truth given in God’s Word in order to avoid associating with people who lack integrity and could influence us to disobey God (Matthew 7:6; John 7:24; 1 Corinthians 5:12; Galatians 1:9; 1 Timothy 4:1; 1 John 4:1).
2. This verse must not be used as an excuse for not exercising church discipline (Matthew 18:15). God does not expect us to tolerate continual sin in our own lives or in the lives of people in the church because it will cut off the flow of the Holy spirit’s work in and through a congregation.  

Jesus follows His warning about making undue judgments by saying that we should “not give dogs what is sacred” or “throw pearls to pigs” (Matthew 7:6). He is saying that there is no use trying to teach or correct a person beyond their ability to understand the truth. This explains why it is usually ineffective for God’s followers to attempt to correct sinful behaviors in the world by “attacking” those who are still enslaved to sin. This only leads to greater opposition, and they react by choosing to “trample” on the truth.

(KJV) Matthew 6:33

But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.

Those who follow Christ are urged to seek – above all else – God’s kingdom and His righteousness. The verb “seek” means being continually absorbed in a search for something or making a long and consistent effort to obtain something (Matthew 13:45). God’s kingdom and righteousness are not passive matters; they are things we must actively pursue. Christ refers to two objects, or focuses, of our seeking: 

1. “His kingdom” (His power and authority overall, His purposes and way of life both on earth and into eternity) – we must desperately desire for God’s authority and power to be evident in our lives and in our Christian gatherings. Our own desires should never get in the way of what God wants to do in our individual lives and our churches. We must pray that God’s kingdom will operate in the mighty power of the Holy Spirit to save people from sin, to destroy demonic power, to heal the sick and to bring honor to the Lord Jesus in every way.
2. “His righteousness” (His standards of truth, right and goodness) – through the power of the Holy Spirit, we must make every effort to obey Christ’s commands, show Christ’s standard of truth and right, avoid the ungodly practices of the world and show Christ’s love toward everyone (Philippians 2:12-13).

(KJV) Matthew 6:30

Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which to day is, and to morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith?

These words contain God’s promise to all His children in this age of trouble and uncertainty. God has promised to provide our food, clothing and other necessities. We do not need to worry about such things. We can be sure that God will assume full responsibility for those who are submitted entirely to His authority and purposes (Philippians 4:6; 1 Peter 5:7).

(KJV) Matthew 6:25

 Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment?

Jesus does not mean that it is wrong to make provisions for future physical needs (2 Corinthians 12:14; 1 Timothy 5:8). He is speaking against anxiety or worry that shows a lack of faith in God’s care and love (Ezekiel 34:12; 1 Peter 5:7).

(KJV) Matthew 6:22

 The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light.

We must be extremely careful about what we look at and what we expose ourselves to. Our eyes are like lenses that flash images onto our minds – like film in a camera – leaving a graphic impression on our thoughts and memories. If we look at ungodly and impure images, they will cloud and corrupt our minds so that we will not be able to see what God has for us or where He wants to guide us. Yet, if we choose to expose ourselves to good and wholesome things, the Lord will continue to give us spiritual light and truth to our minds and guide us down the right paths for our lives (Philippians 4:8).

(KJV) Matthew 6:16

Moreover when ye fast, be not, as the hypocrites, of a sad countenance: for they disfigure their faces, that they may appear unto men to fast. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.

In the Bible, fasting refers to the discipline of abstaining from food for a limited time in order to give greater attention to spiritual matters. Although it is often linked with prayer, it can be a spiritual exercise all its own. In fact, fasting can be called “prayer without words,” in which case our time without food should be an intense time of listening to God, trying to gain a sense of His direction and meditating on His Word (pondering its principles over and over to consider how they apply to specific situations in our lives).

1. There are three main forms of fasting presented in the Bible. 

1. The normal fast: abstaining from all food, solid or liquid, but not from water (Matthew 4:2).
2. The absolute fast: abstaining from both food and water (Esther 4:16; Acts 9:9). Normally this kind of fast should not be for more than three days because the body then begins to dehydrate. (Because of certain physical reasons, some people cannot endure such an extreme fast; anyone who intends to go on an extended fast would be wise to seek direction from someone who is knowledgeable in this area, such as a physician.) Moses and Elijah experienced the absolute fast for 40 days, but only under supernatural conditions (Exodus 34:28; Deuteronomy 9:9, 18; 1 Kings 19:8). 
3. The partial fast: a restricted diet rather than complete abstinence from food (Daniel 10:3).

2. Christ Himself practiced fasting (Luke 4:2) and taught that it should be a part of Christian devotion and an act of preparation for His return (Matthew 9:15). The New Testament church practiced fasting (Acts 13:2-3; 14:23; 27:33)
3. Fasting with prayer has several purposes:

1. To honor God (Matthew 6:16-18; Zechariah 7:5; Luke 2:37; Acts 13:2)
2. To humble ourselves and put spiritual concerns above our own desires (Ezra 8:21; Psalms 69:10; Isaiah 58:3) so that we may experience more of God’s power (1 Peter 5:5) and presence (Isaiah 57:15; 58:6-9)
3. To mourn over personal sin and failure (1 Samuel 7:6; Nehemiah 9:1-2)
4. To mourn over the sins of the church, nation and world (1 Samuel 7:6; Nehemiah 9:1-2)
5. To seek grace -God’s undeserved favor and blessing – for a new task and to reaffirm our devotion to God (Matthew 4:2)
6. To deepen our relationship with God and strengthen our resistance against spiritual forces of evil (Judges 20:26; Ezra 8:21, 23, 31; Jeremiah 29:12-14; Joel 2:12; Luke 18:3; Acts 9:10-19);
7. To show repentance (remorse for sin, readiness to turn from our own way and surrender to God) -both for ourselves and for God’s people as a whole – so that God has a reason to change His plan of judgment (2 Samuel 12:16, 22; 1 Kings 21:27-29; Jeremiah 18:7-8; Joel 2:12-14; Jonah 3:5, 10)
8. To rescue people from slavery to evil (Isaiah 58:6; Matthew 17:14-21; Luke 4:18)
9. To gain spiritual insight and wisdom concerning God’s will (Isaiah 58:5-6, 11; Daniel 9:3, 21-22; Acts 13:2-3) 
10. To open the way for the Holy Spirit to operate powerfully among God’s people as He prepares them for Christ’s return (Matthew 9:15).

(KJV) Matthew 6:15

But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.

Jesus teaches that there should be no compromise in our readiness or willingness to forgive the offenses of others. Holding on to unforgiveness is a sin because of the bitterness and destruction it can bring in one’s own spirit and because it fails to reflect God’s character in our lives. If we refuse to forgive others, Christ will not forgive us – nor will He answer our prayers- because we choose to hold on to sin. This is an important principle because God uses it as a measure for forgiving us (Matthew 18:35; Luke 11:4).

(KJV) Matthew 6:14

For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you:

The Greek term aphiêmi, which means “forgive” (also Greek aphête; aphêsei), is found in various forms in the New Testament (over 140 times). It sometimes means “to let go,”  “to leave behind,” “to dismiss,” and even “to cancel a debt.” It is used for the forgiveness of sins by God (implying also the canceling of guilt). We are to forgive others in the same way God forgives us.

(KJV) Matthew 6:13

And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.

Each of God’s people is a target of Satan’s opposition and attack. On our own, we cannot overcome or even resist His evil purposes. For this reason, we must rely completely on God, praying constantly for wisdom and strength to defeat the devil’s schemes (Luke 11:26; 18:1; 22:31; John 17:15; 2 Corinthians 2:11). Of course, standing in victory through Christ requires listening and responding to God’s Word and guidance. Only then will we exercise the wisdom and self-discipline necessary to avoid spiritually compromising situations that lead to failure (2 Timothy 2:22).

(KJV) Matthew 6:12

And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.

Prayer is a time for confession of sins so we can be forgiven. It is also a time to rely on God for the strength to forgive those who have harmed us (Matthew 6:14-15; Hebrews 9:14; 1John 1:9; 6:15).
