GOD HATES ANXIETY

January 30, 2015 · Lanre Oyeleke · 3 views

Matt6:25 "That is why I tell you not to worry about everyday life—whether you have enough food and drink, or enough clothes to wear. Isn't life more than food, and your body more than clothing. NLT

Worry or anxiety in my understanding is an uncoordinated thinking about an issue with no solution in view which is characterised by confusion and depression. When we worry, we dissipate spiritual energy and we become negative in our thought-pattern instead.

Anxiety most times reveals our faith level or the magnitude of trust we have for the Lord. Many a times, we worry about things that God has made provisions for in salvation but because we cannot see them with the eyes of faith, we live in perpetual worries. God hates when we worry because it belittles him.

The cure for worry is faith in God's word. Worry magnifies a problem and if one isn't careful, it may damage one's health. Some high blood pressure cases would have been avoided if anxiety was properly handled. Also, if you're prone to worrying even on little things, take charge and command the spirit behind it to leave you.

Turn over your worries to the Lord in prayer and let him handle them.
