HOW TO OVERCOME WORRY

INTRODUCTION

STRESS HAS BECOME THE NUMBER ONE KILLER IN SOCIETY TODAY.

WE WORRY ABOUT THINGS THAT WE HAVE NO CONTROL OF, AND BY WORRYING WE DO NOT CONSULT GOD WITH OUR CONCERNS.

THE FIRST WAY HOW TO OVERCOME WORRY IS TAKE NO THOUGHT. THE WORD THOUGHT MEANS TO BE CONCERN.

THE PROBLEM WE HAVE TODAY IS WE FOCUS MORE ON THE EXTERNAL MORE THAN THE ETERNAL.

WE PUT SO MUCH EMPHASIS ON THINGS WE EAT OR WHAT WE SHOULD WEAR TO THE POINT THAT IT DEFINE WHO WE ARE.

OUR LIVES IS IN THE HANDS OF GOD AND OUR LIVES ARE HIDDEN IN CHRIST, SO WHY WORRY ABOUT SOMETHING YOU ARE NOT IN CONTROL OF.

WORRY IS A DISQUIETED UNEASINESS OF MIND, AN ANXIOUS APPREHENSION CONCERNING AN IMPENDING OR ANTICIPATED SITUATION.

MORE WORRY ONLY ADDS TO THE PROBLEM.

PHILIPPIANS 4:6 BE CAREFUL FOR NOTHING; BUT IN EVERY THING BY PRAYER AND SUPPLICATION WITH THANKSGIVING LET YOUR REQUESTS BE MADE KNOWN UNTO GOD.

SECONDLY WE NEED TO SEEK GOD FIRST.

WHEN WE PUT GOD FIRST AND SEEK THOSE THINGS WHICH ARE ABOVE THEIR IS NO PLACE FOR WORRY.

WORRY ONLY HAPPEN IN YOUR LIFE, WHEN YOUR LIFE DO NOT LINE UP TO THE WILL OF GOD.

WHEN YOU ARE IN GOOD STANDING WITH GOD HE ALREADY NO WHAT YOU ARE IN NEED OF.

GOD IS WILLING TO GIVE YOU THE DESIRES OF YOUR HEART, AS LONG AS YOUR HEART IS RIGHT WITH HIM.

1 TIMOTHY 4:8 FOR BODILY EXERCISE PROFITETH LITTLE: BUT GODLINESS IS PROFITABLE UNTO ALL THINGS, HAVING PROMISE OF THE LIFE THAT NOW IS, AND OF THAT WHICH IS TO COME.

THEN THIRDLY WE NEED TO LET TOMORROW TAKE CARE OF ITSELF.

THE PROBLEM WITH MANY OF US , WE TAKE OUR CONCERNS INTO ANOTHER DAY WITHOUT KNOWING WHO HOLDS TOMORROW. YOU’RE NOT PROMISE TO SEE ANOTHER DAY OR LESS GOD ALLOW IT. SO WHY WORRY ABOUT TOMORROW WHEN GOD HOLDS THE FUTURE.

WE HAVE TO LEARN HOW TO HAVE FAITH IN THE LORD, SO WE DON’T ALLOW WORRY TO HAVE A PLACE IN OUR LIVES.

THE WORD OF GOD SAID COME UNTO ME, ALL YE THAT LABOUR AND ARE HEAVY LADEN, AND I WILL GIVE YOU REST. TAKE MY YOKE UPON YOU, AND LEARN OF ME; FOR I AM MEEK AND LOWLY IN HEART: AND YE SHALL FIND REST UNTO YOUR SOULS, FOR MY YOKE IS EASY, AND MY BURDEN IS LIGHT.

YOU MIGHT HAVE FOUND YOURSELF WORRYING OF LATE AND STRUGGLING TO FIND PEACE, JESUS SAID PEACE I LEAVE WITH YOU, MY PEACE I GIVE UNTO YOU: NOT AS THE WORLD GIVETH, GIVE I UNTO YOU, LET NOT YOUR , HEART BE TROUBLE , NEITHER LET IT BE AFRAID.
