Giving up the Worry habit.

How many of you worry?

Did you know that it is a sin to worry and that worry will hinder your Faith?

Matt 6:25

“Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear.  Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes?”

When I was sick with the mental illness alls I did was worry.  My body continued to fall apart. But when I realized that I had A God who wanted me to be healed who wanted me to be whole and I started reading the scriptures. I started speaking over my body, health and healing   and it didn’t happen over night it was a processes. But as I spoke the scriptures over my self I began to quite worrying   and started believing.

If we are in worry we are not in faith, and the only way to be saved is threw faith.

To believe that Christ died for are sins, ask for forgiveness, repent that means turn way.

And you shall be saved.

Isn’t amazing that we have the Faith to believe God for eternal life. But not trust him with are concerns that he will take care of us today right now. Well struggle in this area with worry at one point or another.

Matt 6:26

“Look   at the birds of the air’ they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they?”

We are made in Christ image of course where more valuable then the birds. But we don’t act like it some times you don’t see the birds flying around having heart attacks laying all over the place because there worried of ware there foods coming from the Lord takes care of them.

Matt 6:27

Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life?

I think this is so true. We know that worry won’t add to are life. But it sure can cause health problems and take away the

quality of are lives.

We need to start practicing giving things over to God he is willing to take them.

MATT 11:28-30

“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest Take my yoke upon you and learn from me,

for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”

Dealing with Fear

What is fear?

In 2 Tim 1:7
 Says, ”For God did not give us a spirit of fear, or (timidity), but of power, and of love, and of sound mind”

 So fear is actually a spirit and it doesn’t come from God so we know it comes from the other kingdom, which is Satan, fear separates us from God, it’s the opposite of what  God gives.

In Gal 5:22-23
 Says, “But the fruit of the spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faith gentleness and self control”

 So we see God gives faith not fear. Fear is a sin it’s putting more faith in your problem or fear. Then having faith to believe God is bigger then your problem.

In Josh 1:9
 Says, “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go”

I remember before I got saved I was so afraid of everything I took a pill to get up a pill to go to bed and pills in between to help me function during the day. My first husband cheated on me and did all kinds of things behind my back. I didn’t figure that out until years after we where married because I was trying to function from day to day I was diagnosed with Schizophrenia I heard voices that I couldn’t control that would tell me to kill my self and hurt others. That made me afraid of my self I didn’t know that Satan could put things in your head or that demons could talk to you. I also had seen things that weren’t there. I was so afraid I spent a lot of time in the hospital. I didn’t know that God loved me and I didn’t know that he could heal me either. Satan had many strong holds in my life.

How do we deal with fear?

First getting salvation asking Jesus Christ in to your heart and asking him to for give your sins. Then turn away from those sins and you shall be saved if you truly mean it in your heart. Then bye studying the word and speaking the word out loud and by prayer and praise, and believing what the word says

In 2 Co 10:5
 Says, “Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth it self against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ”,

When I started getting healed from the Schizophrenia Satan would tell me all kinds of things, like “You’ll never make it, this is a waist of time anyway, go off your medicine yeah write your crazy” I had to learn to tear down strong holds that Satan put in my mind and cast him out. So I could get back in line with the word I constantly had to cast Satan out. And I would sing praise music to the Lord to stop Satan from trying to put thoughts in my head. When I did the dishes or cleaned the house I would have my New Testament tapes playing all the time so Satan couldn’t bother me. As I learned the word of God he completely healed me. I never knew how much power the word had until I started reading the word and speaking it then I wasn’t a afraid any more I learned who I was in Christ and that Satan is limited to what I’ll allow in my life and in my head.

So we know that fear is a spirit.

That it’s a sin against God.
That fear is not from God
That we deal with fear by Prayer, praise and by learning the word and speaking the word, beleving what it says and if where not write with the Lord asking him in to are hearts. Asking for forgiveness, then turning away from those sins and you shall be saved if you truly meant it in your heart. And once you’re saved all of the things we talked about apply to you.
