Philippians4: 6 Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your request be made know to God.
Anxiety is a plague. This plague of worry, fear and anxiety is sweeping across the nation and you have probably, at one time or another, fallen victim.
Anxiety is another word for fear. There are realistic fears and unrealistic fears. Anxiety is normally unrealistic. Anxiety is produced from thoughts and speculation about what you think might happen. You speculate the outcome of a future event then place a preconceived judgment or opinion of the event. In anxiety, the judgment of the event is always bad. What you see happening in the future is always negative, which you have no way of predicting.
The bible tells you to approach anxiety on two levels. First, handle anxiety can be with a humble request to God. You pray trusting God to handle all situations. There is nothing to big for God. You can take everything to God in prayer. Talk to God about your anxiety and ask Him to help. Second, be thankful in advance for the solution. Pre-thanks is an act of faith, believing God for the truth in every situation.
When you make your request to God for help don’t waiver. Believe Him; trust Him to take care of the future. He is the only power able to see and change the future. Ask Him to take charge of this event you predict as horrible. He will act in your behalf. He cares about your fear and anxiety. He wants you to live in Peace and He will do His part to see your today and tomorrow is peaceful.
Prayer Focus: God, I place my future in your hands. I ask you to remove this anxiety in my life. I ask you to give me your peace.
