Anxiety About MoneySample

When it comes to money, I haven't yet encountered anyone who hasn't experienced anxiety in their financial life. We often think that having more money will make the anxiety go away, but that isn't the case.

Having coached many high-net-worth individuals, I can confirm that more money isn't the answer to removing anxiety. We all – rich, poor, and everyone in between – need to understand that the Biblical instructions God gave us are the only true antidote to anxiety.

It's natural to feel overwhelmed during uncertain times. But God has provided us with a way to combat fear and worry: prayer.

Philippians 4:6 encourages us to not be anxious about anything, but to present our requests to God in prayer. We must remember that God already knows what we need and is ready to give us the strength and peace we need in difficult times.

God is not only willing to help us, He is eager to do so. 1 Peter 5:7 reminds us to cast all our anxieties on Him because He cares for us. We must come to Him with faith, believing that He will show us the way.

And we can have courage when facing difficult times because we know that the Lord our God will never leave us nor forsake us. We can trust in His promises and have peace in knowing that He will never abandon us.

Finally, John 14:27 tells us that Jesus has left us with peace that surpasses all understanding. In moments of worry and fear, we can find peace in His presence and shelter our hearts in His love.

No matter what we are facing, it is important to remember that God is with us. He is waiting to grant us peace in times of anxiety and to give us courage in moments of fear. All we have to do is turn to Him in prayer and trust in His promises. He will never leave us nor forsake us.
