Choose Prayer and Thanksgiving over Worry and Anxiety

Do not be anxious or worried about anything, but in everything [every circumstance and situation] by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, continue to make your [specific] requests known to God.
PHILIPPIANS 4:6 AMP

Hallelujah to God for the gift of life and a blessed day to celebrate the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.

Apostle Paul charged the church in Philippi to look up to God for all solutions. The cares of life can swallow us up and we may become depressed and frustrated in life. He actually wrote this when he was in prison and ought to have been the most anxious person.

During the ministry of Jesus, He taught us that even in our anxious moments there is absolutely nothing that we can do, we cannot even add a strand of hair to what has been given us from above.

The charge by Apostle Paul therefore to pray in whatever situation we find ourselves is the answer we need to move on in this life. We should make our requests known to God the Father who will sort us out!

The scripture says that we should continue to make our requests known to God through our prayers, petitions and thanksgiving. We therefore have to pray all types of prayers and also be consistent in our prayer.

May the Lord help us not to saturate ourselves in anxiety but to call upon His name in all situations, believing that He is God and He will come through for us in Jesus Mighty name. Amen.

Anxiety weighs down the heart but a good Word uplifts

Anxiety in a man’s heart weighs it down, But a good (encouraging) word makes it glad.
PROVERBS 12:25 AMP

Praise, Glory and honour be to God for this beautiful day and the opportunity to rejoice and be glad in it.

Anxiety is so common with us that at the least moment we become anxious. We worry a lot but unfortunately cannot change the situation ourselves in most cases.

In one of Jesus’ teaching He indicated that with our anxiety we are unable to even add one strand of hair to what is on our head. The God we serve takes care of the birds of the air and the lilies of the field, He will continue to take care of us.

As today’s scripture says, anxiety causes us to be disheartened, worried, agitated, down hearted and many more which negatively affects us. The fact is that anxiety does not change the situation! May we desist from being anxious as we just hurt ourselves.

The scripture recommends a good and encouraging word which uplifts the soul and makes the heart glad. We should therefore be embracing good and encouraging words which will gladden the heart and make positive impact on our lives. Let us also look for some good gospel songs to sing along to uplift our souls and encourage ourselves in time of need.

May we receive the Grace to overcome and conquer anxiety in our lives. May God’s Word which encourages and exhorts be ours so we get lifted up in Jesus Mighty name. Amen

God our Comforter in our anxieties

When my anxious thoughts multiply within me, Your comforts delight me.
PSALM 94:19 AMP

Glory and honour be unto God for this beautiful day. Thanks be to God for leading us this far by grace .

We serve the Alpha and Omega, the Most High God, the Great King and I am that I am God! His Word tells us not to be anxious but in all things we should come before His throne of Grace with prayer.

This morning, the scripture for the day says that in our anxiety or anxious moments, the Lord comforts us and makes us delighted. We should therefore focus on the faithfulness of God and not the happening around us.

I believe the Word of God which says FEAR NOT 365 times in the Bible becomes a daily dosage that soothes our anxious moments.

The issues of this world (Russia Ukraine war, financial crisis, unemployment, increase in utilities bills, inflation etc) result in the multiplication of anxiety within us but thanks be to God that through Him we are delightfully comforted.

May we remain in the delightful comfort of the Most High God now and forever, may every anxiety be under control in Jesus Mighty name. Amen.

Do not Worry or be anxious!

“Therefore I tell you, stop being worried or anxious (perpetually uneasy, distracted) about your life, as to what you will eat or what you will drink; nor about your body, as to what you will wear. Is life not more than food, and the body more than clothing?
MATTHEW 6:25 AMP

Glory, honour and adoration be unto God for the blessings of a brand new day and the opportunity to rejoice and be glad in it.

Do not be anxious about your life! This is Jesus’ statement to us this morning. There are many things that are going through our minds and causing us to worry.

Anxiety about jobs, examination, marriage, accommodation, clothing, meals etc are real situations encountered on a daily basis but Jesus says that we should stay calm and stop worrying as our worrying does not change anything but rather puts us in a state of depression. Give them to Jesus!

May our confidence and absolute trust be in the Most High God, placing our hands into His hand and walking according to His Word. May we be saturated in His Word and Prayer so that worrying and anxiety will not have roots in our lives in Jesus Mighty name. Amen.
