I don't feel that God is saying... no matter how high you live I will maintain that. So what I see in it is that I have been living a lifestyle far different from any lifestyle God was speaking of in those scriptures.
I believe that God would take care of me if I lived a lifestyle where I took no care for tomorrow but one cannot live a lifestyle that takes no care for tomorrow when there are mortgages to pay and car notes to pay. One must take care for tomorrow in those cases. The choices we have made create cares that will be waiting on us when the sun rises tomorrow.
So I truly believe those scriptures are true but I also believe that they also call to a life where we owe no man and have nothing of this world tying us down. We are not living that life.
God can provide for our every need... but few want to live a life that has no care for tomorrow because that life can't be had without mortgages, other debts & light bills.
Let me know if I have failed to explain my stance on those scriptures sufficiently.

I agree. It's like wanting prayer for a headache when you are drinking Dr. Pepper all day. That's pretty simple. LOL!
