Peace on Earth
Often we look like we have it all together but we are gull of anxiety on the inside
Paul writting from a Roman prison while chained up to a guard 24/7
what is anxiety: is very complicated
situational
frame of mind
ALSO spiritual
There is a time when you may need professional help
counselor or psychiatrist
Medication
In all times of anxiety we need to go to God in prayer
I’m not saying to ignore what your doctor is saying — just saying that without prayer that it is not enough!
So, I am a car guy...
work on cars for a living
feed my kids
enjoy cars
known to wax my car for a time to relax
So cars are a big part of my life....
they might be a big part of yours too
did you drive or ride in one here this morning?
Who has ever driven a car that had a light on
a warning light of some kind on the dash?
I had a car one time that looked like a Christmas tree every light was lit on my dash
what is the check engine light?
it is not the problem
it is an indicator that there is a problem
it’s warning you that it needs to go to someone who can fix it
someone who is familiar with the way that it was made to function
some of you are taking notes right now
light on dash is bad
find who knows how to fix it after church today
What is anxiety:
anxiety is the signal or indicator that is telling you that it’s time to pray
take it to the One who knows how your life is supposed to function
it’s an indicator that something needs adjusted
If you are not trailing me with this car analogy try this
IF IT IS BIG ENOUGH TO WORRY ABOUT
IT’S BIG ENOUGH TO PRAY ABOUT
if it is on your mind
it’s on God’s heart
do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.
worried about your test results?
worried about what you’ll do for your kids for Christmas
worried about the family getting together
PRAY ABOUT IT!
does anyone struggle praying
give you anxiety?
look at how he tells us to pray
let your requests be made known to God...
tell Him
How do I tell Him?
shout it
whisper
sing
sign
tell Him when you are
angry
worried
feeling good
anoyed
What is anxiety?
it’s a signal to go to the one
who made you
created you
loves you
signal telling you to go pray
Peter lived like he was maybe an anxious guy by nature
Humble yourself & pray
how do we humble ourselves in prayer?
it’s an alignment issue
Satan loves to use this tactic
ever feel like you don’t have enough money to give God 10% tithe
He gave it all to you and you would give back when you had more
rather than be obedient the enemy has told you that you should wait until you have more money
SAME THING FOR PRAYER
what do I mean?
ever feel like you were too busy to pray?
it’s an alignment issue
I have learned with my finances that God can do more with 90% than I can do with 100%
I can assure you that God can do more with your first 54 minutes of busy time
than you can do with the full 60!
we must learn to align ourselves in humility
He is greater
He can accomplish more
Maybe it’s not the time thing but what is praying going to do about it?
He already knows and besides others have prayed about it
we must align ourselves to understand that HE is the One who made us and can remake us
anxiety is your indicator that you need to pray
If we invest more time in prayer first
we will find that our anxiety will decrease
we have faltered by focusing on our problem and how we can fix it
when we should be looking to God and trusting in Him
it is then that our anxieties will begin to fade because we will understand that what is out of my control is in God’s control....
that should make us fear more of what we feel like we have under control
because He can do better with the unknown that I do with what I think that I know
Let us learn to let go of the power to control
and help us learn to surrender!
We don’t always have the power to control but we always have the power to surrender
when you are feeling anxious and out of control try surrendering to God’s mighty hand
this means that we should let it go
