Do Not Be Anxious About Anything

"Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God."  Phil 4:6

God's Promise

God would never command us to do something if He hadn't given us the ability to do it.  He gives us the power to overcome worry and anxiety.  That is a promise.  

Emotional Stress

According to WebMD, worry and emotional stress can trigger a host of health problems. Your body releases stress hormones. These hormones can boost blood sugar levels and triglycerides. The hormones cause many physical reactions including skin problems, heart problems, headaches, Nausea and many other issues.

Worry

I believe worry is a tool of the devil used to destroy us, to take away our focus on God, and to rob us of joy. You have to learn how to treat worry as the enemy. When you start to worry turn it into a prayer. When you wake up, your prayer list should be the things that are worrying you that day. When Paul says "Be anxious for nothing" in Phil 4:6, he follows that up by saying "in every situation by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God." 

Prayer

In other words, your old worry list becomes your new prayer list. Don't try it once then give up. Like anything in life, anything meaningful or lasting takes consistency and hard work! But God is faithful and he will deliver you!
