When Prayers Turn Into Anxiety - God's Word for Your Heartনমুনা
Trust: God Hears Your Prayers
Who are you praying for? What mighty thing are you believing and asking God for? Especially when it’s someone close to you like a son or daughter, a parent or close friend, heavy burdens can easily spiral into anxious thoughts and sleepless nights.
If you haven’t mixed trust into the equation, you’ll forever watch for signs that the situation is turning. Or waver in doubt every time it seems like things have taken a downward turn.
That’s when you must trust the Word of God. You must latch hold of His promises and remember that He is the God who answers prayer!
The psalmist declared, “I took my troubles to the Lord; I cried out to Him, and He answered my prayer.” (Psalm 120:1)
God hears. God is listening and He will answer. Push anxiety out of your heart with the truth of scripture. Latch onto God’s word as you pray for your loved one, and let the peace of God guard your heart and mind. Trust His truth.
Here is a prayer you can pray: “Father, I believe that You are listening and that You answer prayer! I trust You, and I push anxiety out of my heart right now. I ask for Your divine intervention in (name)’s life. I thank You that You are at work, and I receive Your peace in my life. In Jesus’ name, amen.”
