Handle Your Worry With Faith
Leave all your cares and anxieties at the feet of the Lord, and measureless grace will strengthen you. Psalms 55:22
Worry can be handled. Not by cursing, Crying, taking drugs, filling up on alcohol, striking out at somebody, wallowing in self pity, or blaming God. Worry can be handled because you have
faith. It gives you direct access to God as you release it. It takes you straight to Him who is the Absolute Source of ridding you of worry. Worry, often comes by looking at the circumstances and conditions as they are.. or seem to be. When viewed in this way, the problems always look bigger than the solution. The facts of your circumstances can caise you worry but the TRUTH aways causes freedom. And THE FACTS ARE NOT ALWAYS THE TRUTH!
For example, while Jesus was hanging on the cross He was forsaken, suffering, and dying. Those were the facts. But the TRUTH is: HE WAS OVERCOMING SIN, SICKNESS, DEMONS, FEAR, DEATH,AND HELL. He was not suffering because the devil had gained the victory over Him. He was enduring the penalty for our sins, the pain of our sicknesses, and giving us a New Covenant of eternal life. He said, “Because I live, ye shall live also” (John 14:19).
The same principle is true for your life too. The facts you face daily are not necessarily the truth. The fact may be that you are lost, The fact may be that you are ill … but the truth is, by the stripes on Jesus’ back you were healed (1 Peter 2:24).
The fact may be that you are facing severe financial problems … the truth is, when you plant your seeds of faith God will multiply them back in a miracle financial harvest. For my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:19).
Your brother in Christ,
Apostle Ashok Martin
