Philippians 4:6-7 Be Anxious For Nothing

Philippians 4:6-7 Be anxious for nothing, but in everything, by prayer and supplication with gratitude, make your requests known to God.

Worry is a common human experience. We worry about our health, finances, future, family, and many other aspects of life,

People around the world today are struggling with overwhelming anxiety from worry.  It’s everywhere, and when it shows up it can easily consume our every thought by filling our hearts and minds with fear and worry.

When the Apostle Paul wrote “Be anxious for nothing” he was a prisoner in Rome. Paul had many reasons to be anxious himself because he knew that his execution could happen any day, but instead of being anxious himself, he was encouraging so many others not to be.

Apostle Paul says “Be anxious for nothing, but in prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God.” It’s like he’s saying to us that instead of being anxious, be prayerful. The path to peace is in prayer. Tell God all about it, instead of worrying about it.

As Christians, we don’t have to be afraid of anything because we know that “all things work together for the good of those who love God” (Rom. 8:28, NIV).  

People of God, the Lord our God uses all circumstances of life, be it good or bad, for His glory and our personal growth. Knowing this truth, we can rejoice in the Lord always.

 When Jesus taught his disciples how to pray in Matthew 6, He instructed them to ask God for what they need.

Perhaps you are visiting here and you are worried about your upcoming doctor's appointment, a sick child, failing marriage, unemployment, lack of finances, an important decision that you need to make, etc., take it to the Lord in prayer.

God bless you all and thank you for enjoying the ride with Jesus here on tonight.

Pray ye for one another!
