Matthew 10
Anxiety and stress should not play a significant role in my life but they do...yet here Jesus gives me even more reason to not worry, to not have anxiety, and to not stress out:
Jesus wants me to be on watch for Satan and to have a healthy fear of Satan but KNOW that Jesus is always there protecting me in my time of need. Jesus is all that I need. He knows all about me, all of the time and He provides for all of my needs.
My Prayer: Lord Jesus, YOU are all that I need...in ALL circumstances You will be there providing for my every need...even though I might not even be able to recognize my own needs or what is good for me - You are in control and You love me...this is all that I need to know. How great a God are You! Thank You that You love me despite my worry, anxiety, and stress. Help me Jesus give this up. Help me be the man You intend for me.
Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather, be afraid of the One who can destroy both soul and body in hell. v28
Anxiety and stress should not play a significant role in my life but they do...yet here Jesus gives me even more reason to not worry, to not have anxiety, and to not stress out:
Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? Yet not one of them will fall to the ground outside your Father’s care. And even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. So don’t be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows. v29-31
Jesus wants me to be on watch for Satan and to have a healthy fear of Satan but KNOW that Jesus is always there protecting me in my time of need. Jesus is all that I need. He knows all about me, all of the time and He provides for all of my needs.
I am not saying this because I am in need, for I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances. I
know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I
have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation,
whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. I can do all this through him who gives me strength. Philippians 4:11-13
My Prayer: Lord Jesus, YOU are all that I need...in ALL circumstances You will be there providing for my every need...even though I might not even be able to recognize my own needs or what is good for me - You are in control and You love me...this is all that I need to know. How great a God are You! Thank You that You love me despite my worry, anxiety, and stress. Help me Jesus give this up. Help me be the man You intend for me.
