Day 3: Don’t Panic - Relax
Anxiety naturally makes us panic. You’re backed up into the corner. You’ve got no way out. You’re being attacked and hit. This is not where you want to be. It’s a bad situation so there is a reason to panic.
Just like in real life, in a fight panicking only makes it worse. It uses up a lot of energy, making you more tired, and it does nothing to get your opponent off of you. So how do we stop when everything in us wants to panic?
Breathe and think.
Normally when we breathe it is an automatic response we don’t have to think about. In the presence of anxiety or panic, we have to intentionally think about it and do it. This will help us to relax, clear our minds, and get oxygen to our brains and muscles to keep functioning well.
We also need to think. Remember the times God has gotten you through situations like this before. Know that He will get you through again. Remember the strategies and techniques taught in the Bible and in this devotional to conquer anxiety. You CAN DO this because you have Jesus. Your confidence is in Him. No opponent is too big for Him.
Once you are able to breathe and remember these truths it will help you relax further while still keeping your guard up.
It reminds me of when an enemy army came to kill the prophet Elisha. When they got to where Elisha lived his servant was afraid, but Elisha was not. Elisha had seen God do so many miracles by that point he was able to see what his servant couldn’t. Where his servant panicked, Elisha was able to remain calm despite the attack.
