E: I entrust Every need to you!
- In nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. 7 And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus" (Philippians 4:6-7).
Prayerful Observations:
Here is the Lord's instruction. We are not to be anxious about anything. Jesus told us that fear is a result of a weak faith. Jesus said, "Why are you fearful, O you of little faith?" (Matthew 8:26). Increased faith is granted by God to those who ask for it. This is the Endorsed Prayer of Faith (4.3a).
For many years I have asked God to multiply my faith. Through these years I have seen my faith grow and anxiety diminish. So, I suggest that all of God's children pray the Endorsed Prayer of Faith. Walking the Sixth Path reduces anxiety. Instead of fixing your spiritual eyes on the object of your fear, fix your spiritual eyes on God who is within you.
If your mind is distracted back to the object of your fear, turn your attention back to God within. Don't struggle against the fear. Turn your heart directly to God and ask Him to multiply your faith. Then keep your eyes on Him until you sense His peace and power. Then fix your eyes on His work... bearing the yoke of Christ.
