WHY WORRY, WHEN YOU CAN PRAY.

The devil wants you to worry, about things, so that you can’t enjoy your life . he is a liar, and the father of lies, and his job is to steal, kill, destroy your happiness, peace, and everything about you. But remember , whatever God blessed you with, he can’t steal, kill, nor destroy.

“What then shall we say to all these things? If God is for us, who can be [successful] against us? Who shall ever separate us from the love of Christ? Will tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or danger, or sword? Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors and gain an overwhelming victory through Him who loved us [so much that He died for us]. For I am convinced [and continue to be convinced—beyond any doubt] that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present and threatening, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the [unlimited] love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord”.(Romans 8:31‭, ‬35‭-‬35‭, ‬37‭-‬39 AMP).

“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? Look at the birds of the air; they neither sow [seed] nor reap [the harvest] nor gather [the crops] into barns, and yet your heavenly Father keeps feeding them. Are you not worth much more than they? And who of you by worrying can add one hour to [the length of] his life? And why are you worried about clothes? See how the lilies and wildflowers of the field grow; they do not labor nor do they spin [wool to make clothing], yet I say to you that not even Solomon in all his glory and splendor dressed himself like one of these. But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which is alive and green today and tomorrow is [cut and] thrown [as fuel] into the furnace, will He not much more clothe you? You of little faith! Therefore do not worry or be anxious (perpetually uneasy, distracted), saying, ‘What are we going to eat?’ or ‘What are we going to drink?’ or ‘What are we going to wear?’ For the [pagan] Gentiles eagerly seek all these things; [but do not worry,] for your heavenly Father knows that you need them. But first and most importantly seek (aim at, strive after) His kingdom and His righteousness [His way of doing and being right—the attitude and character of God], and all these things will be given to you also. “So do not worry about tomorrow; for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own”. (Matthew 6:25‭-‬34 AMP).

“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. And the peace of God [that peace which reassures the heart, that peace] which transcends all understanding, [that peace which] stands guard over your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus [is yours]. Finally, believers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable and worthy of respect, whatever is right and confirmed by God’s word, whatever is pure and wholesome, whatever is lovely and brings peace, whatever is admirable and of good repute; if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think continually on these things [center your mind on them, and implant them in your heart]”.(Philippians 4:6‭-‬8 AMP).

TRUSTING GOD WILL ELIMINATE WORRIES.

Fully (All-Out) Trust In The Lord
Proverb 3:5-7
5 Trust in the LORD with all of your heart; and lean not unto your own understanding.
6 In all of your ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct your paths.
7 Be not wise in your own eyes…
+We cannot trust in the Lord and lean to our own understanding at the same time. It will not work.
+Too often while we are trusting the Lord we let our own understanding get in the way.
+In all our ways the Lord must be acknowledged.
+The Lord directs us in ALL things.
+We cannot be wise in our own eyes. Meaning that we must cease from our own wisdom and opinions and only function in the Wisdom of the Lord.
+Our job is to always cooperate with God on His terms. We are workers together with Him, 2 Corinthians 6:1.
+Let us be lead by the Lord our Shepherd and by His Holy Spirit as we continue to live by every Word of God.
•Continue to let the WORD of God be the standard for your life. Always LOVING others like Christ Jesus loves us while keeping our Faith, Trust and Confidence in Him.
•BLESSED you are and BLESSED you will always be and to God be all the GLORY. Amen!

STOP IT,NOW

STOP! Don’t dial 1-800-feel bad,or start a pity party,start rejoicing.Rejoicing is a good antidote for stress,depression,cares,and the worries of this world,put some music on,then start  singing ,and dancing, it is safe and effective.Now ,it all depends on the kind of music you listen to,you see I am a gospel,or christian music person,I realize that when I glorify God,the praises go up ,and the blessing come down.Listen, to me folks you can’t listen to music ,that will make you feel worse,why would you want to listen to music ,that will let you think about the person who broke your heart or put you in a state of funk,and depression. That’s why you have to listen to some spiritual music, to uplift your soul,that is totally unrelated to your hurt,pain,and ache.

When ,I think of the love God has for me,and the goodness of Jesus Christ,who died for me,that automatically replaces,everyone and everything that hurt me.That’s when I start to rejoice ,sing, dance ,and shout for joy.Sometimes, you have to encourage yourself in the Lord,that’s what King David did( 1 Samuel 30:6),when there is no one around,or you have people who just have nothing good to say,and just make you feel worse,then you have to step up to the plate ,and encourage yourself in the Lord.

A merry heart maketh a cheerful countenance,but by sorrow of the heart the spirit is broken (Proverbs 15:13);Many are the afflictions of the righteous,but the Lord delivered him out of them all ( Psalms 34:19);Blessed are the people who know the joyful sound;they shall walk, O Lord,in the light of thy countenance.In thy name shall they rejoice all the day,and in thy righteousness shall they be exalted ( Psalms 89:15-16).

The apostle paul tells us to,”Rejoice in the Lord always:and again I say, rejoice!”.. then he said,”Be anxious for nothing,but in everything by prayer,and supplication with thanksgiving let your request be made known unto God;and the peace of God,which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts,and minds through Christ Jesus,….hold up don’t go anywhere it gets better,he said, Finally,brethren,whatsoever things are true, honest,just,pure,lovely,and of good report;if there be any virtue,or praise think on those things” (Philippians 4:4-8),now don’t you feel you feel a whole lot better,instead of calling 1-800-feel-bad, having a pity party,or crying a river to swim away,don’t allow the devil to laugh,do a reality check,you are a child of the most High God,Jesus gave us the victory,and the authority to tread on serpents,scorpions,and all the power of the enemy;and nothing shall by any means hurt you (luke 10:19-20) it’s  time to rejoice that our names are written in Heaven.Let the heart of them rejoice who seek the Lord( 1 Chronicle 16:10).
