THE WORD OF GOD SAYS
THE WEIGHT OF WORRY
Worry weighs us down; a cheerful word picks us up.
Proverbs 12:25 MSG
WORRY INTERFERES WITH GROWTH
“And the seed that fell in the weeds—well, these are the ones who hear, but then the seed is crowded out and nothing comes of it as they go about their lives worrying about tomorrow, making money, and having fun.
Luke 8:14 MSG
DON’T WORRY ABOUT TOMORROW
So don’t worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will bring its own worries. Today’s trouble is enough for today.
Matthew 6:34 NLT
“Give your entire attention to what God is doing right now, and don’t get worked up about what may or may not happen tomorrow. God will help you deal with whatever hard things come up when the time comes.
Matthew 6:34 MSG
LET GOD TAKE CARE OF YOUR WORRIES
Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus.
Philippians 4:6-7 NLT
GIVE GOD ALL YOUR BURDENS
Cast your cares on the Lord and he will sustain you; he will never let the righteous be shaken.
Psalms 55:22 NIV
WORKING YOUR WORRIED FINGERS TO THE BONE
It’s useless to rise early and go to bed late, and work your worried fingers to the bone. Don’t you know he enjoys giving rest to those he loves?
Psalm 127:1-2 MSG
WHEN YOU REHEARSE YOUR WORRIES IN YOUR MIND
Ask boldly, believingly, without a second thought. People who “worry their prayers” are like wind-whipped waves. Don’t think you’re going to get anything from the Master that way, adrift at sea, keeping all your options open.
James 1:5-8 MSG
PEACE AND PROVISION
He keeps the peace at your borders, He puts the best bread on your tables.
Psalm 147:12-18 MSG
TRUST IS REPLACED WHEN YOU COUNT ALL YOUR WORRIES
But when it was all done, David was overwhelmed with guilt because he had counted the people, replacing trust with statistics. And David prayed to God , “I have sinned badly in what I have just done. But now God forgive my guilt—I’ve been really stupid.”
2 Samuel 24:10 MSG
DON’T LET WORRY PARALYZE YOU
I stand silently to listen for the one I love, waiting as long as it takes for the Lord to rescue me. For God alone has become my Savior. He alone is my safe place; his wraparound presence always protects me. For he is my champion defender; there’s no risk of failure with God. So why would I let worry paralyze me, even when troubles multiply around me?
Psalms 62:1-2 TPT
