Do not worry because it does not make issues better or turn the situation around. It does not add anything substantial to situations but subtracts from it. Worry depletes your strength which you need to resist the devil who could continually plan assaults against your soul. He wants to see you fall away from your holy walk with Christ. Apostle Peter says in 1 Peter 5:6-10
“So humble yourselves under the mighty power of God, and at the right time, he will lift you in honor. Give all your worries and cares to God, for he cares about you.
Stand firm; stay alert! Watch out for your great enemy, the devil. He prowls around like a roaring lion, looking for someone to devour. Stand firm against him, and be strong in your faith. Remember that your family of believers all over the world is going through the same kind of suffering you are.”
You are a victor and a winner, so there is no
need to work on very. Jesus conquered the world and gave us victory. Remember the word that saves us,
“No, despite all these things, overwhelming victory is ours through Christ, who loved us” ( Rim 8:37)
Challenges in life are only stepping stones to upward life in Christ Jesus.
Even in regions with geographical, physical features like landlocked countries, riverine, and impassible high mountains that can hinder trade and development, you can still prosper if you trust God. Nothing is impossible with God. Father God wants us to trust Him and not worry about anything. He says in the Scriptures,
“I will say it again: Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”
(Philip 4:4-7)
Pray and give the As is to God always. Worship and rejoice in Him as if your needs are already met. God will step into your situation and turn it around. He says, Behold, I make all things new”( Rev 21: 5). God will give you a double check r your trouble. He cares, do worry not. Rather, put every concern in God’s hands.
Commit thy way unto the LORD; Trust also in him; And he shall bring it to pass. And he shall bring forth thy righteousness as the light, And thy judgment as the noonday.
(Psalm 37:5-7) Difficult times are met to build us up and not to tear us down. It is a school of discipline that is met to bring growth, Christian development errs R T, and advancement in our faith and trust in Christ. Challenges in life help to build our character. It helps us grow in the knowledge, Revelation, and wisdom of Christ. We become Christ-like, and our lifestyle will impact many lives.
