'Letting Go of Worry'

Title: 'TRUST CHRIST'/Acry  -  Visual Prayer Art  -  by Rev. Bola A. (Feb.13)

Never ever worry.
 
Don't let your worries get the best of you; remember, Moses started out as a basket case.

 Ho...Ho..Ho..! 

Worry is a cycle of inefficient thoughts whirling around a centre of fear.


Philippians 4:6-7  says....
 

Do not be anxious about anything, 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 understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

 Matthew 6:27 says....
 

And which of you by being anxious can add a single hour to his span of life?

 John 14:1 says.....
 

Let not your hearts be troubled. Believe in God; believe also in me.

 Most Christians are being crucified on a cross between two thieves: Yesterday's regret and tomorrow's worries.


 No one can pray and worry at the same time.

Prayer Request

        Lord, help me to live in Your joy and peace. Give me strength and understanding to resist anxiety, anger, envy, depression, bitterness, hopelessness, loneliness, fear and guilt. Rescue me when “my spirit is overwhelmed within me; my heart within me is distressed” (Psalm 143:4). I refuse to let my life be brought down by negative emotions such as these.

        When I am tempted to give in to them, show me Your Truth. You have said in Your Word that by our patience we can possess our souls (Luke 21:19) Give me patience so I can do that. Help me to keep my ‘heart with all diligence,” for I know that “out of it spring the issues of life: (Proverbs 4:23).

The righteous cry out, and the Lord hears, and delivers them out of all their troubles. The LORD is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves such as have a contrite spirit.” (Psalm 34:17-18)   those who have a broken heart, and saves such as have a contrite spirit.” (Psalm 34:17-18)
.

Amen.

Peace and Light... Rev.Bola A.
