Don’t be anxious 😰

Anxiety is one of the biggest viruses in the world right now. The lockdowns, layoffs, and divisive political environment have caused many people to be overwhelmed with anxiety. Do you struggle with anxiety? Many people don’t even know what it is. They’ve learned to sedate themselves with alcohol, marijuana, sex, money, or some other drug. 

How are you doing? How are you coping, surviving, and making ends meet? How do you feel? Depressed? Fearful? Angry or lost? Anxiety is “a sense of impending doom or fear.” Yikes! 

Millions are so caught up with the virus and political pundits that they’ve lost their peace. The Bible commands us to “Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God;” (Philippians 4:6, NKJV). 

Do you know what nothing means in the original Bible language? It means nothing. That’s right. We are commanded to get rid of all anxiety by the power of prayer. This verse gives you even more specific instructions:  

1. In every situation  
2. Bring a petition to God 
3. Add thanksgiving 
4. Make your request known to God

Wow! That’s so clear and simple. Did you notice the results of these practical steps? “And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.” (Philippians 4:7, NIV) God promises His peace will guard your emotions and thoughts in Jesus. Now that’s incredible! No more fear, anxiety, or worry—just tons of supernatural peace. 

Because you are a miracle.
