Oct 1, 2019 · To be fair, we don’t all experience fear, worry, and anxiety in the same way. Different bodies feel differently despite similar thought processes and experiences, but God did not tell us to fight a battle that is impossible to win. With God’s help, each one of us can progressively improve in the way we fight fear, worry, and anxiety.

In his mercy, God heard my desperate prayers and preserved my wife. The doctors and nurses were amazing, and my wife was stabilized and recovered. But the fear I felt in those moments was real, and an extreme example of the fears we regularly meet throughout life. The vast majority of our anxiety may not be as severe, but the symptoms are common an...
Philippians 4:6–7tells us, “Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.” But how does prayer, supplication, and thanksgiving uproot the weeds of anxiety in our lives? Or to switch the analogy, if fear and anxiety are like the indicator dashboard lights of o...
The apostle Peter makes an explicit link between humility and relinquishing anxiety: According to Peter, to let go of anxious thoughts and fears requires the multistep process of admitting that (1) I am fearful and anxious, (2) I am failing to trust some aspect of God’s character and goodness, and (3) I need his help to cast these anxieties upon hi...
When we humble ourselves before God, recognizing our weakness, fears, and anxieties, we can begin casting those anxieties before our Lord in prayer, supplication, and thanksgiving (Philippians 4:6–7). In each step of this process, we recall God’s character and promises in our prayers to him. Our prayers switch from “take it away God!” to humble sub...
As much as it depends on you, wage war on anxiety by targeting the root. Experienced gardeners will tell you that the best defense against weeds is a good offense. Strong flourishing perennials, a well-fertilized vegetable garden, or even thick green grass soak up the nutrients and crowd out the weeds. Similarly, as we uproot anxiety and fear, we m...
Nov 11, 2016 · Prayer is the key to escaping the snare of sinful anxiety. Don’t listen to your anxieties, and don’t talk back to them. Especially beware of anxieties in disguise. Direct your talk to God and cast all your “what if” concerns on him because only he can give you the assurance that everything will ultimately be okay.
Jun 27, 2023 · Fear of death and the unknown is a key element of anxiety. Not all anxiety is sinful. In 1 Corinthians 7:32, Paul states that an unmarried man is “anxious” about pleasing the Lord, while a married man is “anxious” about pleasing his wife (ESV). In this case, the anxiety isn’t a sinful fear but a deep, proper concern.
At its best, anxiety distracts us from our relationship with God and the truth that He is “Lord of heaven and earth” (Matthew 11:25). At its worst, anxiety is a crippling disease, taking over our minds and plunging our thoughts into darkness. But God wants so much more for us than to walk through life full of fear, worry and anxiety.
Aug 10, 2016 · I trade the “wider view” of God’s faithfulness in exchange for the empty promises offered by self-pity, worry, and doubt. Fortunately, the Bible has something to say to anxious hearts. As a child of God, you have a jaw-dropping past, an infinitely compelling future, and a rock-solid reality to stand on without fear or worry in any ...

Mar 26, 2019 · Here’s my brief answer: Depending on the context, fear and anxiety may be one of four types: (1) a God-given emotional response for our benefit, (2) a disordered physiological response that is not sinful, (3) a natural consequence of sin, or (4) sinful responses to God’s providential care. Let’s consider how we can distinguish between the ...
