God’s Answer to Fear, Worry and Anxiety — Part 2

The Bible says, “Anxiety in the heart of man causes depression” (Proverbs 12:25 NKJV). Jesus also taught, “Can all your worries add a single moment to your life?” (Matthew 6:27 NLT). If you don’t want to live in fear, worry, and anxiety, put your concerns in the hands of God. Philippians 4:6 says, “But in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving . . . .” Replace thoughts of anxiety, worry, and panic with godly thoughts. Train your mind to think biblically. Put God’s Kingdom first and turn your panic into prayer.

Application

Did you know that worry can actually be a sin? The believer should not worry because nothing touches the Christian that has not first passed through the loving hands of God. Psalm 27:5 says, “For in the day of trouble he will keep me safe in his dwelling; he will hide me in the shelter of his sacred tent and set me high upon a rock.” We grow in our faith by reading the Bible and believing what it says.
