Have no anxiety!!!
By Aunty Evangeline
Have no anxiety about anything but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known unto God and the peace of God that passes all understanding will keep your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus
Isaiah 26:3
He will keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on Him
Humans have the tendency to want to resolve every issue or challenge.
Isaiah 55:8 says
My ways are not your ways neither are your thoughts my thoughts
Meaning our human minds cannot fully understand or comprehend the ways of God.
The first two verses quoted encourages christians to learn to relax in the Lord. To stay calm
Believing without any doubt that God will make a way in every situation.
How can we prevent ourselves from getting anxious? By
1 Studying the word of God
Joshua 1:8
This book of law shall not depart out of your mouth but you shall meditate on it day and night, that you may be careful to do all it says. For then, you shall make your way prosperous and you shall have good success.
2 Timothy 2:15
Study to show thyself approved unto God, a workman that need not be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth
– The first verse immediately above says once we study the word of God thoroughly and do what it says, God will prosper us and bless us abundantly ( give us good success). So we need not worry no matter what comes our way
– The second one says we should focus our attention on God and not our circumstances. This will prevent us from getting anxious
2. Praying without ceasing
Jeremiah 33:3
Call unto me and I will answer and show you great and hidden things you do not know
1 Thessalonians 5:17
Pray without ceasing
– Prayer gives spiritual strength as it gets you closer to God
– It prevents you from getting over anxious about issues only God can resolve.
3.Learn to give thanks to God in all circumstances
– Psalm 103: 2
Bless the Lord oh my soul and forget not His benefits
Blessing the Lord involves giving thanks to God, honoring and glorifying His name.
As you do this, it takes your mind off all anxious thoughts
1 Thessalonians 5:18
In everything give thanks for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you
In good times you thank Him for the many blessings and in bad times you thank Him for the Victory He will give you
Conclusion
There is no need to be anxious or worry about anything. Just put your trust in God
