Hold On To The God Who Holds You | A Blessed Morning Prayer To Start Your Day

[Music] if you are worried about something the remedy is the word of God if you are fearful about something the antidote is the word of God if you are anxious about anything anything at all the Cure is the word of God all in all as you get to know God's word you get to know God's voice as you get to know God's voice you'll know that fear and worry are not from God Jesus Christ said do not be anxious about your life and I believe he said this because one of the biggest enemies you will

ever face will come in the form of worry and anxiety and in life I'm sure we can all agree that there will be things in your control that you'll worry about there'll be things that are out of your control that you'll worry about and while it is so easy to fall in a state of worry in one of his teachings Jesus gave us the message that we should not worry about tomorrow tomorrow will take care of itself and I believe that the Lord was telling us to be present in the moment be at peace today

be joyful today if you spend your time and energy worrying then you will always magnify the lack in your life or the pain in your life but should you instead choose to adopt a new attitude where you do not worry about tomorrow an attitude where you're thanking the lord for today you're thanking God for his goodness even while you're waiting on your Miracle you're thanking God for what he has provided even though there are things you lack when you do this then you magnify Jesus Christ instead of your problem but here's what the Bible says

in Matthew 6: 25-27 therefore I tell you do not be anxious about your life what you will eat or what you will drink nor about your body what you will put on is not life more than food and the body more than clothing look at the birds of the air they neither seow nor reap nor gather into barn and yet your heavenly father feeds them are you not of more value than they and which of you by being anxious can add a single hour to his span of life I believe that the Lord wants us

to stop worrying to stop pondering and wondering about what might happen tomorrow stop spending your effort and your energy by thinking about what could happen tomorrow or even that what should happen you are blessed in this very moment and on this day one Pastor said don't borrow trouble which means don't worry about all of the wha ifs we could face someday what if there is a Health crisis a financial setback or even this type of problem don't borrow trouble from the future but instead walk by faith and not by sight the thing that God really

cares about is Faith the Bible clearly tells us that it's faith that pleases God not prayer not reading his word but faith God loves the person who believes you have to believe you have to have faith in him are you Are you standing in faith are you living by faith are you walking by faith faith is a life of action based on what you believe to be true for an example the action of not worrying that is a result of you having the faith that God is in control the action of not trying to fix

everything that too is a result of you having the faith that God is in control Jesus Christ said let not your hearts be troubled why did he say this because he wants you to have faith that he will take care of all your needs another way to understand or Define faith can be summed up in the following way Faith is doing your part which is trusting God to do his part your part is to believe that's all you need to do and then you leave God to do his part your part is to stand on

God's word his word that says nothing is impossible with God so let me ask you are you doing your part are you believing are you believing and standing on God's word are you walking by faith and not by sight strong faith comes from knowing and believing that Jesus Christ not only rose from the dead but he defeated the devil he defeated death hell and the grave strong faith comes from meditating on God's word strong faith is cultivated and developed when you not only read the word of God but you you internalize it you Ponder on

it and dwell on it I would even go as far as saying strong faith comes as a product of great trials because the Bible says in James chap 1 verse 2- 4 dear brothers and sisters when Troubles of any kind come your way consider it an opportunity for great joy for you know that when you're faith is tested your endurance has a chance to grow so let it grow for when your endurance is fully developed you will be perfect and complete needing nothing no matter what your hardship might be be strong in faith don't allow

yourself to be moved because as soon as you let go of God's sure promises you are bound to get swept up into the madness of this world Jesus Christ is the only sure foundation in this fickle and everchanging world he is our steadfast anchor so I encourage you today to stay present with the Lord stay present in your mind and in your soul by acknowledging Psalm 118 verse 24 this is the day that the Lord has made we will rejoice and be glad in it now let us pray Lord Jesus we praise you your word

in second Corinthians 12:9 says my grace is sufficient for you for my strength is made perfect in weakness therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities that the power of Christ May rest upon me you are with us Lord and we are grateful as your children we are grateful that you are with us and your grace is always available and sufficient for our needs we choose to focus on the Healer instead of the sickness we choose to focus on the provider instead of the lack we choose to focus on the way maker instead

of the obstacles ahead we choose to focus on you King Jesus because we find favor in you we find protection in you we find Mercy in you we put all focus and attention on you we magnify you above Jesus we magnify you above the Troubles of Tomorrow we magnify you and put put you above every Health crisis every Financial setback and every problem father God we will not worry about tomorrow because of your word father we sincerely ask that you would open your ears to hear our cry give us a mind filled with peace and

during those times in which my heart is heavy I pray that you would make my burdens light whenever the attacks of the enemy are many I pray that you would defend me Lord fight for me and my family fight my battles Lord though the adversary prows around like a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour I confess that I will be kept safe by the blood of Jesus Christ God will intervene in my circumstances God will take away the worry and give me peace in my heart may you intervene in my Affairs and show your

might David cried in Psalm 35 verse one and said plead my cause oh Lord with those who strive with me fight against those who fight against me and so today I too will call upon the name of the Lord so that he may plead my cause I will call on the name of the Lord when I need divine intervention I will ask you my Father in heaven to step in just as you did for Daniel for Elijah and even for Elisha we invite you Lord Jesus to move in a mighty way move in a mighty

way in our lives Lord clear every trap that the devil has hidden in my path I pray that you would guard my mind against discouraging and depressing thoughts I reuke all thoughts of worry and anxiety about what tomorrow holds about what the future may hold instead I choose to have peace because I will have faith in you Lord and when the enemy throws darts of confusion of depression doubt and even despair trying to weaken my faith or steal my joy I pray Lord Jesus that you will protect my mind with the helmet of salvation even

in this present moment if I do struggle to live with the uncertainty of this world and all that is going on I pray that you would help me to keep my mind focused on you I bless your holy name and I thank you for hearing this prayer in the mighty name of Jesus Christ I pray amen therefore I tell you do not be anxious about your life what you will eat or what you will drink nor about your body what you will put on is not life more than food and the body more than clothing
