Worry About Nothing; Pray About Everything
Do not be anxious about anything, 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 your minds in Christ Jesus.
Just about all of us struggle, at times, with worry. I certainly do. We struggle with worry because life can be so unsettling and uncertain. At times, life is painful. Philippians 4:6–7 is God’s antidote to worry.
So many times over the years, I have cited these words to myself or I have prayed them over someone.
“Do not be anxious about anything.” Worry about nothing, absolutely nothing.
“But in everything.” Everything. Every single worry. No worry is too big or too small for God.
“By prayer and supplication with thanksgiving.” Include thanksgiving to God: Father, thank You that You have delivered me in the past and that You will deliver me in this problem too.
“Let your requests be made known to God.” Ask God to take care of the problem. Bring your burdens to God and leave them there.
“And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding.” This peace does not come because I understand everything or because I have it all figured out. It is supernatural, suprarational peace from God.
“Will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.” Ah! That’s what I need, Lord. That’s what I need. Your peace, guarding my heart, filling my soul.
God’s solution for worry: worry about nothing; pray about everything.

The Christian life must not only be preached but must also be lived. In this plan, the Apostle Paul teaches the church of the Philippians some concrete aspects of believers’ behavior. Let’s learn together and accept the challenge of this lifestyle.
