Deal with Worries and Anxieties God’s Way


·       What do you usually worry about? Are you ever anxious, as far as what to eat or wear, for tomorrow? How do you usually deal with your worries and anxieties?

Worry is an emotional problem that plagues the lives of multitudes of Christians. CONTINOUS WORRY can affect every part of the human body. Worry causes a stress reaction. Constant activation of this stress response can put a person at a higher risk for psychological and physical problems.
We can believe in Jesus as our Savior and still be guilty of the sin of worry. The reason we worry is because we are so much under the control of feelings and negative emotions that our spiritual man cannot take control of our mind to where we dwell upon the Word of God and have the mind of Christ.
Instead of worrying, reach out in faith, confess your sin, and touch the Lord. When you worry about a problem, you are reaching out and touching it with the hand of unbelief. That only makes it worse. When we worry we bind and discredit our faith. It is totally unfounded for us to worry, because throughout the Bible God says don't worry, everything is going to be all right if you put your trust in me.
"And do not seek what you shall eat, and what you shall drink, and do not keep worrying. "For all these things the nations of the world eagerly seek; but your Father knows that you need these things. "But seek for His kingdom, and these things shall be added to you”. Luke 12:29-31
Anxiety is a distress of the mind and is a sin which is parallel to but may go beyond worry. It is often a result of subconscious fears and negative thoughts. Anxiety and its resulting tension will choke your faith, bind flow of joy, and severely hinder your personal relationship with the Lord. You cannot deal with anxiety by trying to stop it, or by trying to make yourself relax; most times this will only make it worse. The only effective way to deal with anxiety is to commit yourself to God. You must call upon the Lord and know that He is a very present help in time of trouble.
"Do not be anxious then, saying, 'What shall we eat?' Or 'What shall we drink?' Or 'With what shall we clothe ourselves?' "For all these things the Gentiles eagerly seek; for your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. "But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness; and all these things shall be added to you. "Therefore do not be anxious for tomorrow; for tomorrow will care for itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own" - Matt. 6:31-34
“…casting all your anxiety upon Him, because He cares for you”. I Pet. 5:7
Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all comprehension, shall guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus”. Phil. 4:6,7 (look at Prov. 14:30)

Therefore Brethren, Please pray for those who are oppressed by worries and anxiety. Show them love as Christ also loved you and pray for hope in every single sphere of their lives. Seek the Lord and His wisdom.
