Anxiety

Lord, God. You know my situation, and You also know that I’ve made it bigger than it really is. And so, I’m stressed and anxious and fearful. Nevertheless, I’m right here with You. I need to hear You… I ask You to help me trust in Your perfect plan, knowing that You have plans to give me hope and a future.1

Your Word is a light to my path,2 and You have commanded me not to be anxious but to bring everything to You in prayer.3 I cast my burdens on You, knowing that You care for me,4 and I thank You for the peace that surpasses all understanding.5 Help me to walk in that peace daily, trusting that You are in control.

You have not given me a spirit of fear but of power, love, and self-control.6 When anxiety threatens to take over, remind me that You are always with me and will never leave me.7 You are my refuge and strength, my everpresent help in times of trouble.8 Even in my darkest valleys, I will fear no evil, for You are with me.9

Jesus, You have said not to worry about tomorrow, for each day has enough trouble of its own.10 Help me to trust in Your provision and seek first Your kingdom.11 In my weakness, remind me that Your grace is sufficient, and Your power is made perfect in weakness.12

Father, help me keep my eyes fixed on Jesus, even in the middle of life’s storms.13 Guard my heart and mind, and let Your Word transform me.14 I place my hope in You, knowing that You will work all things together for my good.15 In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.
