- 4:26Speaker 1: am that I am. It is a thirty one day
- 4:29Speaker 1: God to exploring the Bible. It is a teen gud
- 4:32Speaker 1: to exploring the Bible. We want our babies to be
- 4:34Speaker 1: able to rely on the words so when they get
- 4:37Speaker 1: out here in the world, they'll have something in them
- 4:40Speaker 1: so that they will not depart from. So again, I
- 4:43Speaker 1: thank you, I thank you, I thank you, I thank
- 4:45Speaker 1: you for joining me on today. Today's topic is handling worry.
- 4:50Speaker 1: Handling worry, and when we're coming out of Matthew six
- 4:56Speaker 1: and thirty four, we're coming out of Matthew six and
- 4:58Speaker 1: thirty four. Matthew six in thirty four. I'm actually gonna
- 5:01Speaker 1: start at verse number thirty three, so we're gonna be
- 5:04Speaker 1: coming out of six and thirty three and thirty four
- 5:08Speaker 1: It say, but seek the first the Kingdom and his righteousness,
- 5:12Speaker 1: and all things will be given to you as well. Therefore,
- 5:15Speaker 1: do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow we'll worry about itself.
- 5:20Speaker 1: Each day has enough trouble of its own, and that
- 5:24Speaker 1: come from the NIV version of the Bible that came
- 5:28Speaker 1: out of the NIV version of the Bible. So welcome, welcome, welcome,
- 5:35Speaker 1: And we often know that worry. It often creeps in,
- 5:39Speaker 1: and it creeps in on the quietest moments, whispering doubt
- 5:43Speaker 1: about tomorrow, casting shadows on today, whether it's a bill
- 5:48Speaker 1: that needs to be paid, loved ones living through hard seasons,
- 5:53Speaker 1: or a world that seems uncertain. Worry tries to set
- 5:57Speaker 1: up a camp in our hearts. But God never created
- 6:00Speaker 1: us to be held hot stitch by anxiety. Today, let's
- 6:05Speaker 1: discover how to trade our worries for God's unshakable peace. Y'all.
- 6:12Speaker 1: I remember a season in my life when worries seemed
- 6:15Speaker 1: like my closest companion. Each morning I greeted day with
- 6:19Speaker 1: anxiety about my future, my family, my finances, uncertainties that
- 6:25Speaker 1: kept me on a long after midnight. I mean, it
- 6:29Speaker 1: kept me up long, long, long time after midnight. No
- 6:33Speaker 1: matter how hard I tried to fix everything, the worries
- 6:36Speaker 1: only grew. Once sleepless night, I opened my Bible and
- 6:41Speaker 1: stumbled upon Matthew six and thirty four as I read
- 6:45Speaker 1: Jesus word, Therefore, do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow
- 6:50Speaker 1: will take care of itself. Each day has enough trouble
- 6:54Speaker 1: of its own. I realized that I was carrying birds
- 6:59Speaker 1: that was not me for me to bear that I
- 7:03Speaker 1: was that I was at a turning point. It wasn't
- 7:08Speaker 1: about controlling tomorrow, but trusting the one who holds all
- 7:13Speaker 1: of my tomorrows. God. We got to give it to God.
- 7:17Speaker 1: We have to give it to God. Matthew six and
- 7:20Speaker 1: thirty four. It teaches us a profound lesson that God
- 7:24Speaker 1: wants us to live in the present, relying on His
- 7:27Speaker 1: provision for today, instead of fretting over what might come tomorrow.
- 7:33Speaker 1: Wordy steals your joy, It spans it spats our strength,
- 7:38Speaker 1: and it blinds us from the blessings that's right in
- 7:41Speaker 1: front of us. Jesus invites us to release our words
- 7:46Speaker 1: and to trust in Him with details, with all of
- 7:49Speaker 1: the details of our life. Look, word can only add
- 7:53Speaker 1: a single hour to our life. It in fact binishes
- 8:00Speaker 1: our faith, and it distracts us from our God given purpose.
- 8:05Speaker 1: When fear knocks, we have the power to answer with faith,
- 8:10Speaker 1: believing that whatever comes, God is already there in his grace,
- 8:15Speaker 1: who will be sufficient. Worry is a thief. It stills
- 8:21Speaker 1: the joy of today, the hope of tomorrow, and blinding
- 8:26Speaker 1: us to God's present blessings in future possibilities. Y'all, we
- 8:32Speaker 1: can't worry about tomorrow. Stay focused on today. God is
- 8:36Speaker 1: bigger than any fear. No matter what tomorrow holds, our
- 8:41Speaker 1: God goes ahead of us and prepare a way and
- 8:45Speaker 1: work all things out for our goods Psalms fifty five
- 8:49Speaker 1: and twenty two. Peace is a choice, y'all can choose
- 8:53Speaker 1: it or not. When we choose to trust God promises
- 8:58Speaker 1: over problems, we face his supernatural peace. It guards our
- 9:04Speaker 1: heart in our mind Philippians four six and seven. If
- 9:10Speaker 1: you start every day in prayer, before you even hit
- 9:14Speaker 1: that flow running, before you lay down at night, commit
- 9:20Speaker 1: your's concerns to God, trusting that he cares for every
- 9:23Speaker 1: detail of your life. The scripture tells us cast all
- 9:28Speaker 1: your anxiety on him, because he cares. That's first Peter
- 9:33Speaker 1: five and seven. We got a practice, present, moment awareness.
- 9:40Speaker 1: Focus on what you can control today. Don't worry about
- 9:44Speaker 1: what happened yesterday. Don't worry about what can happen tomorrow,
- 9:48Speaker 1: but your actions, your attitude, and your gratitude. Let it
- 9:53Speaker 1: be in the now that every moment being offering a faith,
- 9:58Speaker 1: refusing to let word set in. Don't worry about tomorrow,
- 10:03Speaker 1: because it is still your peace in today. The scripture says,
- 10:07Speaker 1: this is the day that the Lord has made. Let
- 10:11Speaker 1: us rejoice and be glad in it. That Psalms one
- 10:14Speaker 1: eighteen and twenty four. Y'all, he declares, he declares his word,
- 10:20Speaker 1: God's truth over your life. When and you got to
- 10:23Speaker 1: learn how to declare. You got to learn how to
- 10:25Speaker 1: declare his word over your life. Declare God's truth over
- 10:29Speaker 1: your life. Whenever anxiety tries to creep in, y'all, write
- 10:34Speaker 1: down or speak today's affirmation. I release worry and embrace
- 10:39Speaker 1: peace again, I release worry and embrace peace. Remind yourself
- 10:46Speaker 1: of God's promises and speak them over your life. Y'all.
- 10:49Speaker 1: We got that power, he said, He's given us the
- 10:53Speaker 1: power death and life of the power of the tongue,
- 10:57Speaker 1: and whosoever loved would eat of the fruit. That's Proverbs
- 11:01Speaker 1: eighteen to twenty one. I want you to reflect on
- 11:05Speaker 1: the scripture today. Reflect you on the scripture that He's
- 11:08Speaker 1: given us. Therefore, do not worry about tomorrow. For tomorrow
- 11:12Speaker 1: we'll worry about itself. Each day has its own trouble.
- 11:17Speaker 1: Repeat that. Know that when something creeps up today, you
- 11:22Speaker 1: can't worry about you can't. You gotta take care of today.
- 11:26Speaker 1: Don't worry about tomorrow. Take care of them now. Take
- 11:29Speaker 1: care of whatever comes today. Some of us will be
- 11:32Speaker 1: worried about the If I do this today, then I
- 11:36Speaker 1: may not have this for tomorrow. Take care of today,
- 11:40Speaker 1: he says, take care of today, and tomorrow will take
- 11:43Speaker 1: care of itself. So today I tell you to make
- 11:48Speaker 1: a bold choice to cut worry at the root. Y'all,
- 11:53Speaker 1: don't let it still another second of your joy. Lift
- 11:58Speaker 1: every anxiety to God. Believe that he loves you, and
- 12:05Speaker 1: that his love can handle your deepest fear. His wisdom
- 12:10Speaker 1: can untangle your toughest problem. His peace is more powerful
- 12:15Speaker 1: than any storm that you will ever face. Remember, each
- 12:19Speaker 1: day is a priceless gift design just for you. With
- 12:24Speaker 1: God on your side. You're equit rise above fear and
- 12:31Speaker 1: to walk in hope and to stand strong in His
- 12:34Speaker 1: unshakable peace. Now take a breath, let go and boldly
- 12:41Speaker 1: step into the blessings of today. Y'all. He extended his
- 12:45Speaker 1: grace and his mercy one more time. Somebody didn't get
- 12:48Speaker 1: a chance to see this day. Somebody didn't wake up
- 12:51Speaker 1: this morning. But you got a chance to see this day.
- 12:55Speaker 1: Know that you are not alone, and that God is
- 12:57Speaker 1: in control and his peace it is your claim. So
- 13:02Speaker 1: claim it on today and release your worries and watch
- 13:05Speaker 1: Him work wonders in your life. I challenge you today,
- 13:10Speaker 1: pay it forward. Commit to sharing one truth or encouragement
- 13:14Speaker 1: from today's lesson with someone you may encounter. Whether it's
- 13:18Speaker 1: a kind word, whether it's the scripture, or simply reminding
- 13:22Speaker 1: someone that God Peace is available right now, to be
- 13:27Speaker 1: the beacon of hope and the faith for everyone to
- 13:30Speaker 1: see that someone can see it through Him through you. Today,
- 13:35Speaker 1: go forth and spread peace. You never know whose day
- 13:41Speaker 1: or life you may change today. I refuse to let
- 13:50Speaker 1: worry rob me of one moment. I hand over anxiety
- 13:56Speaker 1: to you God. I trust that your love is being
- 14:01Speaker 1: your wisdom is strong enough and your peace is available
- 14:05Speaker 1: right now. So I thank you for each gift that
- 14:10Speaker 1: you may give us on today. I thank you that
- 14:13Speaker 1: we have everything that we need to face every challenge
- 14:17Speaker 1: and we will face it with courage, hope, and your peace. Today, Father,
- 14:22Speaker 1: release worry and embrace peace upon us on today. Father,
- 14:27Speaker 1: we thank you, We thank you right now. We thank
- 14:30Speaker 1: you right now for every word that has been shared
- 14:33Speaker 1: on today. Father God, we thank you for moving to
- 14:36Speaker 1: each and every one of our life. Lord God, we
- 14:38Speaker 1: thank you for each person that's tuned in to this
- 14:40Speaker 1: live Lord God, Father, asking that you will bless them.
- 14:43Speaker 1: For those that will hear this as a replay or
- 14:45Speaker 1: a clip, or however they get it, Lord God, may
- 14:48Speaker 1: something that they hear bless their lives on today. May
- 14:51Speaker 1: they be able to speak the word because you've given
- 14:54Speaker 1: us that power. You said it in Proverbs eighteen and sixteen,
- 14:57Speaker 1: that you've given us the power of life in there
- 15:00Speaker 1: death in life, that we can speak it and whosoever
- 15:03Speaker 1: should eat the fruit on the fruit of life. And Father,
- 15:07Speaker 1: we thank you right now, We thank you for your word.
- 15:09Speaker 1: We thank you that your word shall not return to
- 15:11Speaker 1: your Lord, that you will watch over and tow us
- 15:13Speaker 1: perform and perfected in each and every one of our lives.
- 15:15Speaker 1: Lord God Father, we thank you for this hour, this
- 15:17Speaker 1: day that was not promised us or God. But Father,
- 15:20Speaker 1: you saw fit to allow us to see this day.
- 15:22Speaker 1: You saw fit to stand your grace and your mercy.
- 15:24Speaker 1: For that, we are forever grateful. Lord God, we are
- 15:27Speaker 1: forever grateful. So Lord, I asked that you allow the
- 15:29Speaker 1: Holy Spirit to go before us, Lord God, smoothing out
- 15:33Speaker 1: every rough road, straightening out every crooked path, leveling every
- 15:36Speaker 1: mountain up hill, or giving us a resource and the
- 15:38Speaker 1: power to go over it. Lord God Father, allow us
- 15:41Speaker 1: to catch up with our destiny on today, Lord, that
- 15:44Speaker 1: we may walk into those things that you have already
- 15:46Speaker 1: outlined for us. Supporting to your word and Jeremiah twenty
- 15:49Speaker 1: nine and eleven, you declare that you had a plan
- 15:51Speaker 1: for us, and it was to prosper us, not to
- 15:53Speaker 1: harm us, for us to have good health, for us
- 15:55Speaker 1: to have hope in the future. So Father, we're trusting
- 15:57Speaker 1: in your word. We're standing on your word because we
- 15:59Speaker 1: know that your word we'll not return to your Lord,
- 16:02Speaker 1: So thank you, thank you for this day that we've
- 16:05Speaker 1: never seen before. So Lord, go before us and allow
- 16:08Speaker 1: us to walk in all that you will have. Lord.
- 16:10Speaker 1: There may be someone out there that don't know you,
- 16:12Speaker 1: Lord God and Father when they come in contact with us,
- 16:15Speaker 1: that they may come to know you. On today, Lord God, Father,
- 16:18Speaker 1: we thank you. Thank you right now. We thank you
- 16:20Speaker 1: for stirring up those gifts that you placed within us.
- 16:22Speaker 1: Lord God, we thank you right now for allowing those
- 16:25Speaker 1: gifts and those talents to make room for us. Lord,
- 16:27Speaker 1: you said that we should be great among men, and
- 16:30Speaker 1: we should be great upon the Father. So Father, we
- 16:32Speaker 1: thank you on this morning. We thank you for yet
- 16:35Speaker 1: another day. And Father, we asked that you bless you,
- 16:38Speaker 1: bless us in the name of Sheeesus, and that is
