The word for today is- Stress!

Good morning,

The word for today is- Stress!

 

In today's world it is virtually impossible to avoid stress, people are seeking relief for their problems.The first thing we must do to be free from our stress and our worry is to come unto Jesus. Without Him, our life has no real purpose or depth. We simply run from one activity to another, seeking to fill our lives with purpose, peace, and happiness.Jesus says in Matthew 11:28-30, "Come unto me all ye that labour and are heavy laden and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn of me, for I am meek and lowly in heart and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light."  If you need God's Word to overcome anything in your life, then go to the word from God ( the Bible) His word. The hard times in life will either make us full of faith in God, or angry and brittle, full of doubt and unbelief. The spoken Word of God is a living, powerful sword. Read Hebrews 4:12,For the word of God is quick and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart and if Jesus depended upon it to face challenges in life, so can we. Study this Book ( the Bible) of Instruction continually, meditate on it day and night so you will be sure to obey everything written in it. Only then will you prosper and succeed in all you do. This is a command  be strong in the Lord.  Do not be afraid or discouraged. For the Lord our God is with us wherever we go.There are only two motivating factors in life,  fear or faith. The Bible says that when everything else is stripped away, only three things remain: faith, hope, and love, and that love is the greatest of the three. Read John 14:27, Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. Read Matthew 6:33, "But seek ye first the kingdom of God and his righteousness; and all these things will be added unto you. Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow will take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof."  If you don't know Him, ask Him into your heart. If you do know Him tell Him that you want to know Him better. Overcoming Insecurity,read Philippians 4:6-9 Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. Those things, which ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, do: and the God of peace shall be with you.Thank you God for your word. Amen !
