The Book of Proverbs 12:25 tells us that “Anxiety in the heart of man causes depression, but a good word makes it glad.”
“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 understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.” Philippians 4:6-7)
We are advised to surround ourselves with individuals that can encourage and love us regardless of what we might be going through, because the Scripture tells us that good word, kind word, encouraging words will always make our hearts glad. Children of GOD, please also surround yourselves with prayerful individuals who will lift your spirit up, build you up and not bring you down. Hallelujah!!
GOD is with us in whatever situation we might be facing in life, in our daily struggles, our fears and anxious thoughts, thoughts of the past, what we should have done, what we should not have done, and all the worries of life. He is always there, our Sweet Loving Jesus, strengthening and holding us to Himself, although most of the time we might be too blinded to notice His presence.
I have learnt that prayer is the key, we must learn how to pray and surrender all to Jesus.
He said, “Come to Me all you who labor and are heaven laden and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am lowly and gentle in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.” Matthew 11:28-30).
Can you give it to Jesus? Are you able to give it to Him? Please surrender all your worries to Him. For He is able to take all your worries and fears, and give you rest, peace, because His yoke is easy and His burden is light. Jesus will bless you with His peace that surpasses all understanding.
GOD our Father is always there for us, and He said to make our request known to Him by prayer and thanksgiving. Are you making your request known to Him? Or are you worried, depressed and alone? Please talk to Him. He will lift you up the same way He lifted me up, wiped my tears away with His Love and called me His own, His servant. Praise The LORD.
I know a teenager who had a set-back due to an illness, he was very worried and anxious because most of his classmates graduated and are employed, but his healing began when our LORD Jesus took over. The power of prayer. Jesus is always there for us, His children, Our Loving Father.
Please do not worry.
The Book of John 14:27 also declares that “Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.”
Please read this chapter and verses that our LORD Jesus told His disciples, “Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat; nor about the body, what you will put on. Life is more than food, and the body is more than clothing. Consider the ravens, for they neither sow nor reap, which have neither storehouse nor barn; and GOD feeds them. Of how much more value are you than the birds? And which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature? If you then are not able to do the least, why are you anxious for the rest? Luke 12:22-26)
Worrying will never add anything to our lives. Worrying can lead to depression and fear. Everything we need as humans, is in Jesus. He has it all. What do you want? What do you lack? Have you been able to pray to The LORD about it? Have you been able to ask Him? Ask. He carried the cross for our sakes and His love towards us is great. I have learnt to ask, to talk to Jesus regarding my needs, and He always come through for me. What a loving Father, Love that is so intense, no one can understand.
Testimony:
A friend of mine once promised to bless me with some clothing, then became quiet about it for a while, after weeks I decided to remind her, but The LORD was not happy about that decision because He is able to clothe me.
Please surrender your heart to Jesus, surrender all your worries and fears to Him for He cares.
Much Love.
