amid life's challenges it easy to find yourself burdened and down with worry you wonder if you can handle the struggles obstacles and uncertainties that come your way but today I'm here to remind you of a Timeless truth stop worrying God can do it you no longer have to feel depressed not because you want to stop but because God can do all things he can handle the struggles obstacles and uncertainties this video is for those who are tired of worrying over things they should hand over to God I will be praying with you at the end
of the video so make sure you watch to the end before we continue make sure you subscribe to this channel God wants you to stop worrying he hopes you will come to a place where you will stop pondering and wondering about what might happen tomorrow beloved Jesus wants you to stop wasting your energy and effort thinking about what could happen which eventually never happens what we fail to realize is this what could happen tomorrow is not under our control we can barely change things that are meant to be in some other cases we Ponder on
what we expect to happen you see each time we do this we borrow trouble from the future and fail to see all the goodness we have at the moment most of the time our what ifs come from our attempt to fix everything in the future before we get there what if there is a Health crisis what if I lose my job J what if there is some sort of financial setback or an unimaginable problem why think about these things when you could just take advantage of everything you have at the moment and be happy now
that there is no Health crisis why don't you thank God for good health instead rather than Imagining the loss of your job you could focus on offering value to your employees is there a possibility of a financial setback well it is yet to happen so rejoice chice in the now someone rightly said there are people who will always anticipate trouble and in this way they manag to enjoy many Sorrows that never really happened to them all your thoughts of what if are an anticipation for trouble and a sure way of mour events that may not
happen it is a total waste of time and the worst investment we can make in our brains Jesus says in matth Matthew 6:34 therefore do not worry about tomorrow for tomorrow will worry about itself each day has enough trouble of its own the best you can do when things are not going as you want them to is to talk to God about them anxiety makes it impossible for you to think about God when you are afraid of unpleasant outcomes instead you would want to brood over everything in your head and come up with a solution
this is is pointless because there is a better way to go about this it is common because every ordinary man would worry rather than pray every normal man would be anxious rather than praise but you are not ordinary you are no longer in the cck of normal men you are extraordinary because you are a Believer Believers walk by faith and not by sight this is why I encourage you to today to stay present with Jesus don't run faster than him he is the Lord don't think ahead of him he is God stay present with him
in your mind in your thoughts and in your conversations beloved this is the day that the Lord has made and you have got to rejoice and be glad in it you may feel helpless or you may be short of ideas but God is Not fear goes hand inand with anxiety as Faith goes hand inand with peace why fear because you are not sure of God's presence with you because you are uncertain about his ability to make crooked sticks draw straight lines whenever you worry you say to God I am trying to figure out a way
because I do not trust you to do this the proof of your trust in God is your faith and where there is such Faith there is peace I do not know what is bothering you I do not know what has taken away your sleep at night but I have come to tell you that anti-depressants are not the way out of this you do not need more therapy sessions you need God God is not dead neither is he sleeping he is only waiting for you to come to the end of yourself he is waiting for you
to say okay Lord I think I should graduate from living by sight to living by faith it does not matter how Grievous the situation looks it does not matter what has been done God can still do it he can undo that which has been done but you have to stop worrying anxiety can become obstructive it can become destructive and adaptive it can become a reflex if you exercise yourself in it well enough it can take God out of every equation in your life so that rather than focusing on God you begin to focus on the
problem on the ground despair does not only aggravate your misery but also your weakness you will begin to see how incapable and unqualified you are Jesus's words on worry Are Not Mere counsels but instructions All Through the Bible he says if you are not careful you may think he is Harsh I mean doesn't he know that worrying just happens doesn't he understand that things aren't going as expected Jesus knows what he is saying and it is for your good that he instructs you not to worry he knows it divides your attention subtracts your energy and
multiplies your problems even if you choose not to hand over your fears to God please choose not to worry about them it won't get you anywhere close to finding a solution to your problems when faced with unpleasant challenges remember that that you are not in control you probably do not have any form of control over how things turned or how they might turn the only Advantage you have in such times is a relationship with the one in control Jesus Our Risen Savior he is seated in heaven and he has the whole world in his hands
he is in control of your life Luke 127 says indeed the very hairs of your head are allumed don't be afraid you are worth more than many sparrows this is to tell you that you are not a mere biological accident God has been plotting his graph before and even after your birth he is mindful of you he cares about you I want you to know that he knows every little detail of your life he is aware of the things that bother you he sees how terrified you are about the possible turnout of events tomorrow God
is just waiting for you to realize that a thousand years of worrying does not amount to a day of trusting him since he is in control why don't you trust him to do the things that you are unable to do enter into his rest and allow him to fight his battles allow him to take care of you allow him to take full responsibility for is his child all the questions of what if you keep on asking can be cared for by just asking God to work things out in your favor the same energy if not
more used to lament worry and cry can be used to pray think productively and offer thanks the problem is not in the challenges that lie before you but rather rather how you respond to them these challenges are already there the fear is already there but how do you respond your response could be positive or negative either way you exert energy and use time there is a manner of peace that comes from knowing that God can handle the very things that weigh you down it is possible to be completely settled and at ease in the storms
of life don't say oh you know we are humans and we can't help this feeling the challenge is not that we are humans but that we are faithless Jesus was in every way human as you and I are he did not come down with his power as God he came as an innocent baby passed through adolescence and grew into an adult yet he never worried about the things we worry about he was never anxious pondering over how to raise money for his ministry how to feed the people how to pay taxes and all he simply
believed that God could do it so even when it did not look like it he believed even when it did not look like anything could be done he trusted God and there was a miracle your overthinking cannot make things better only your trust in God can do you remember how Jesus fed the multitude isn't it a great miracle that 5,000 men were fed to their satisfaction with an initial provision of five loaves of bread and two fish leaving 12 baskets full of bread you do not think this is a fallacy do you it is real
the story is real and so is Jesus God is infinitely wise and infinitely good he sees everything that could happen God knows what is best for you he sees the end from the very beginning and he knows that ultimately your foes will be defeated and you will rejoice no matter what is happening in your head God is in control no matter what is happening in the world God is still in control he has not lost his ability to do the impossible nothing is beyond God's control nothing catches him off guard you may be confused but
God is certainly not this makes it easy you are confused but you have someone who is not the best you can do is partner with him you can ask as many questions as possible but trust whatever he says for instance rather than taking your phone and Googling how to overcome the financial crisis turn to God and say Lord I see difficult days ahead days when I may have to struggle financially please show me the way out you see in both cases you are addressing future events but your reaction to the two is different one leads
to worry while the other leads to peace one of the signs that you have left God is that you begin to be anxious about everything when you begin to take your life into your own hands rather than rely on God for help you have left God behind the Bible tells us that nothing is too difficult for God to do there is nothing he cannot change no situation he cannot turn around but when men begin to lose faith in God he has very little he can do for them anxiety is a heavy burden that can press
you down affecting your physical and emotional well-being it's like a cloud that overshadows the Light Of Hope and Faith in our lives but as followers of Christ we are not alone in our journey we have a loving and Powerful God who cares for us deeply God is not just an observer in your life beloved he is an active participant and he is set to take care of your cares if you can let go of your worry and hold on to him in faith all the things you worry about are things that cost God nothing to
give to you the only reason he does not give you all things or fix everything at once is so that by trusting all the more you will learn to worry less letting go of worry doesn't mean we stop caring we trust that God who provides for the birds of the air cares for us even more we trust that his plans for us are good and that he works everything for our ultimate good when you let go of your worries and trust God Something Beautiful happens we experience peace that surpasses all understanding we find joy amid
adversity our faith strengthens and we become a Beacon of Hope to those around us Philippians 4 67 tells us do not be anxious about anything but in every situation by prayer and petition with Thanksgiving present your requests to God someone might be wondering how do I stop thinking about how things are going on in my life how do I go about life without having to worry here the answer you need in every situation give thanks in every situation offer prayers and petitions in every situation present your requests to the Lord I do not know what
you are expecting God to do for you I do not know what he needs to change in your life did you get into a debt did you lose your job or a relationship that is dear to you well you've still got a reason to praise God Thanksgiving is what you ought to do to stop worrying they say to break a negative habit we need to build positive ones in replacement in the same way to stop worrying you need to learn how to be thankful prayerful and mindful of God the principle in Matthew 7 still stands
ask and it will be given to you seek and you will find knock and the door will be opened to you realize that you did not ask God for anything specific while pondering and wondering about the things that are out of your control instead you lamented and complained lamentation is not a way of requesting from God they are a way of draining the little energy you have left you need to start making specific requests trusting that the God who performed all the Miracles recorded in the scriptures is still alive if you are burdened today take
a moment to surrender it to God lay your concerns at his feet and Trust in his faithfulness he is able and he can do what seems impossible to you remember you can stop worrying let your faith and his faithfulness be your guide let us pray dear heavenly father we come before you today with grateful Hearts recognizing your presence in our lives and the truth of your word we thank you for the assurance that we can find peace and strength in you even amid life's challenges and uncertainties thank you for the guarantee that if we ask
