Don't worry...Be Happy!

 

Don't worry...Be Happy!

"For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and love and of a sound mind." 2 Timothy 1:7.

Overcoming Worry...Right! This is sort of like telling a person not to breathe! There's no doubt that the times we are living in are very troubling. The current state of affairs in the world is spawning anxiety and worry amongst many people. Since we can’t control it, we are tempted to worry about it. Satan's not just looking to destroy the people that have no clue, He knows if you want to bring a Kingdom down you have to go after it's warriors. (I Peter 5:8.) At this point, self-evaluation becomes important to close all the cracks that the enemy can enter. Make a decision today not to worry about tomorrow. Think ahead, plan ahead, but do not worry ahead. If you need victory over anxiety this side of Heaven, remind yourself Jesus died on the cross to overcome every oppressive spirit. The word 'fear' is written in the Bible 365 times. One Scripture for everyday of the year. This is the moment to remind yourselves of a victorious God. There is no place, no matter how much you feel alone, that God cannot be. Take heart...Jesus reigns above it all!

 “I have told you these things so that in me you may have peace. In this world you may have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world." John 16:13.

 "When the problems start even before you’re fully awake, it is carrying tomorrow's load with today's strength, carrying two days at once."

Sweetest Blessings,
Jo
