WORD OF GOD FOR TODAY

Wrestle it to the ground Part 1

Worry is certainly not of God hence it must be wrestle to the ground. Worry could send you to the grave before your time, divorce worry today people of God. Worry never robs tomorrow of its sorrow, it only saps today of its joy. — Leo F. Buscaglia

Our fatigue is often caused not by work, but by worry, frustration and resentment. Dale Carnegie. Philippians 4:4-8: Rejoice in the Lord always [delight, gladden yourselves in Him]; again I say, Rejoice! Let all men know and perceive and recognize your unselfishness (your considerateness, your forbearing spirit). The Lord is near [He is coming soon]. Do not fret or have any anxiety about anything, but in every circumstance and in everything, by prayer and petition [definite requests], with thanksgiving, continue to make your wants known to God. And God’s peace [shall be yours, that tranquil state of a soul assured of its salvation through Christ, and so fearing nothing from God and being content with its earthly lot of whatever sort that is, that peace] which transcends all understanding shall garrison and mount guard over your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus. For the rest, brethren, whatever is true, whatever is worthy of reverence and is honorable and seemly, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely and lovable, whatever is kind and winsome and gracious, if there is any virtue and excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think on and weigh and take account of these things [fix your minds on them].

You are challenged today to ditch worrying. That will help you make a worry free environment. Plato knew that the body and mind are intimately linked. And in the late 1800s, the Mayo brothers, famous physicians, estimated that over half of all hospital beds are filled with people suffering from frustration, anxiety, worry and despair. Causes of worry are everywhere, in our relationships and our jobs, so it’s key we find ways to take charge of the stress.

Wise Saying
Worry is a thin stream of fear trickling through the mind
