Lens and Camera Upgrades

I am currently using a GX7. I have 3 Panasonic  lenses that are all about 4 years old.

I have a Non IS  F4 7-14mm.   A 14-42 F3.5/5.6 again not stabilized.  And a 14-140 f3.5/5.6

I am considering upgrading the body to either a G85 or G9.   I want to get the 100-300 since I like to shoot wildlife and keep the 14-140 as a travel lens  and the 7-14 as a landscape lens.

But I do see some cameras advertised as packages with the 35-100 F2.8 which is a subset of the 14-140.

I consider myself an enthusiast.  I like to do macro and flower shooting so the focus stacking of the g9 appeals to me.   What would be your suggestions as to  which camera to upgrade too and the lenses I should keep and which should I sell off and replace.

PS.  I do know the G85 is lighter and smaller than the g9 but I am coming off shooting primarily full frame (D750) and I think that between the lenses and body even the g9 would be substantially lighter to carry around with the lenses and bodies.

Thanks
