Don’t worry.

“Don't worry about anything, but in all your prayers ask God for what you need, always asking him with a thankful heart.” Philippians 4:6(GNB)

Do you know that your Heavenly Father feels what you feel. Someone may ask, Does Jesus know what it means for someone not to have accommodation? Yes he does. When He went to Samaria, the Bible says that He had no place to lay His head. So you would agree that Jesus knows what it means for you to lack accommodation. This is why He can be touched with the feelings of our infirmity.

Therefore, because we know that God can be touched with the feelings of our infirmity, He tells us to come boldly to the throne of grace. We don’t come begging, we come boldly to obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.

So when you pray today, speak to the Father with confidence, knowing that you would get what you ask for. Therefore stop worrying about your needs. Philippians 4:6(KJV) says, “Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.” 

Don’t be anxious for anything, don’t have anxiety about anything, don’t worry about anything. Worry is proof that you do not have faith in God’s concern for you. When you are worrying about anything; whether your children, your finances, your accommodation, your protection, etc, it is because you are not sure of God’s love and concern for you. If you find your two year old baby sitting down somewhere thinking and you ask, “what are you thinking about?” and he or she says, “am just wondering if you would be able to take care of me.” 

No, children does not think that way, they are sure of the love and concern of their parents to be able to take care of all their needs. That should be your attitude also as a child of God. Be confident in God’s love and His concern for you because He is able to abundantly supply for all your needs.

Confession
I refuse to worry over any need because I an confident knowing that my God shall supply all my needs according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.

Further Study
Matthew 6:25-33, Philippians 4:6-8.
