THE BIBLICAL APPROACH TO WORRY
WORRY is a state of Focused thinking on a particular situation, Matter or thing
When the thought consumes you and all of your thinking
It is when your concerns occupy your Thoughts and your Heart is filled with fear
Another definition of WORRY is to feel anxious or troubled about actual or potential problems
Worry leads to bigger like Anxiety and Fear
The opposite of WORRY is WORSHIP
Worship is focused thinking on GOD and all there is to him, Reverence and adoration of him
The Bible clearly says in the Book of Philippians 4:6
That be anxious for nothing, But in everything by prayer and Supplication with Thanksgiving we should make our requests known to God ,When we do so the Peace of God that Passes all understanding would keep our Hearts and Mind in Christ Jesus
The reason why Jesus is instructing us not to worry is that we didn't create ourselves
God created us and he is a loving Father
He clearly told us in the Book of Matthew 6: 25- 34
Thst we should take no thought about our life,What we would eat or drink or wear ,Life is more than meat and the body more than Raiment
The Bible clearly says in the Message Translation [MSB] of Mathew 6:26
Look at the birds, free and unfettered, not tied down to a job description, careless in the care of God. And you count far more to him than birds.
If Birds are not tied down to a Job description yet God still cares for them we matter to him more than Birds
The Bible tells us in verse 28, That we should consider the Lilies of the Field,How they grow,They don't toil or spin
And if God so clothes the Grass of the field,Which today is and tomorrow is cast into the Oven, Shall he not much more care about us???
He said therefore we should take no thought of these things because this ate the things the Gentiles seek after
And our Heavenly Father knows we have Need of all these things
But Rather, We should seek first the Kingdom of God and his Righteousness and all of these things shall be added unto us
By WORRY we can't even add a cubit to our Stature,WORRY just Aggravates the
SITUATION
The Concluding verse says that, Therefor we should take no thought for Tomorrow, For Tomorrow shall take care of itself, Sufficient unto the day is is trouble thereof
The Bible also tells us in the Book of Matthew 11:28 That we should come unto Jesus, All ye that Labour and are Heavy laden and he would give us REST
SO NOW WHAT SHOULD BE OUR RESPONSE TO WORRY.
- Prayer- The Bible says we should pray about everything even through littlest inconsequential things of life
That's why we are encouraged to cast all our cares on God because he cares for us
Challenges are a part of life,Even the Bivle tells us thst in this World
we would have Tribulations but we should be of Good cheer because He has overcome the World
As Children of God we are sure of Victor no matter the circumstance
- Worship ; The Antidote to worry is Worship, Worship makes you see how Big you God is over that circumstance, Instead of the Circumstance looking Bigger than your God
- Thanksgiving: The Bible encourages us to give Thanks always because this is the will of God in Christ Jesus our Lord
- Praising God with Understanding: Praise magnifies God above our situations, It makes us sew the Bigness of our God
When we Praise God from the depth of our heart,Our burdens are lifted
