GOD IS IN CONTROL | Overcoming Worry & Anxiety – Inspirational & Motivational Video
On creations morning
An all-powerful God
Flung the glittering stars against the velvet of the night
He holds the seven seas in the palm of his hand. He measures space with his fingertips
He weighs the mountains in a scale and the hills in a balance the God that we serve has total control
He says let there be light and in that moment of time
Darkness was shattered and conquered forever his son
Jesus Christ walked upon the raging sea of the Sea of Galilee
And he held the winds in his fist and said peace be still
that’s control that God is in control of planet Earth and he can be
absolutely in control of your life if you let him
He will make a way where there seems to be in a way
Stop worrying and start living
Worry proves that you don’t believe God can take care of you worry is faith in fear
Worry is faith in fear
The two words in the New Testament
From the mouths of the apostles fear not
Fear not fear not the past. Why because your past has been forgiven and forgotten
fear not the present
I will never leave you nor forsake you Joshua 1 and 9 be not afraid for thy God is with you wherever you go
David said yea though, I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
I will fear no evil for thou art with me death has been reduced to a shadow
The Lord is my light and my salvation
Whom shall I fear the Lord is the strength of my life of whom should I be afraid
Psalms 27 and 1 Hebrews 13 6 the Lord is my helper
I will not fear what man can do with me fear not death
The Bible says I am he who was dead and behold I am alive for evermore
Fear not sickness because this is the book of the Great Physician
Fear not poverty for it is the Lord that gives you the power to get wealth
Fear not other people the Bible says I will make your enemies to be at peace with you
You will climb the impossible mountain. I’ll give you the ability to defeat the impossible foe
1,000 shall fall at your left hand Ten Thousand shall fall at your right hand. David said I will fear no evil
Why because God
Almighty is with me. That’s why
Worry is trust in the unpleasant worry is assurance that disaster is coming
Worry is believing in your personal defeat and despair
Worry is a polluted stream that flows through your brain that drowns hope and optimism
That kills faith worry is interest paid on trouble that never happens
Think about that
One old man said and I quote most of the trouble I’ve had in life never happened
How many of you have worried yourself, silly?
about something you just knew was going to be disaster and it never
happened
Worry enters our life through thoughts
But the Bible teaches us to cast all of our care on God because he cares for us
Life is real and we never know exactly what’s going to come our way, but we do know God
We don’t have to live in fear because he’s with us
And He’s on our side
Well worry sees the problem
But it doesn’t see God
I don’t think it’s wrong to see the problem. Matter of fact, I think we should look at our problems squarely
And then we need to tell them where they stand in relationship to God
Worry sees the problem but faith sees the God who can handle the problem and that’s what we have to do and whatever
Situation you’re in right now in your life whether something with your kids or your marriage or your finances or you think you’re never going
to recover from your past or you’re fighting with some kind of an addiction or some kind of a
Sin, that just keeps trying to cling to you whatever it is
you have to know that God is greater than any problem that you have
and you have to not worry because
When you pray and then you worry the worry nullifiers your prayer
Prayer is something you do instead of worry if we pray and then worry
We’re saying with our mouth
That we’re depending on God, but we’re saying with our actions that we don’t really believe that God is going to come through
So we’re gonna worry and have a back-up plan just in case he doesn’t
We don’t have to know what God is gonna do we don’t have to know when he’s gonna do it
All we need to know is that he is and he has a plan and at the right time
Not our time
But at the right time
God will execute that plan matter of fact, I’m gonna tell you something’s just bubbling up in my heart right now
God is working in your life
Every single one of you God is working in your life right now
in ways that you cannot feel don’t see and don’t understand
And everything that we go through we need to lift up our voice and say God, I believe you’re working in my life right now
I’m expecting something good
And God is with you in your situation
Some of you are in very difficult
Situations and yet in the midst of that you have joy and peace and you have hope and only God can give us that
God is with you just because you have a problem that does not mean that God has abandoned you God is with you
Jesus Christ made the profound statements about worry that the world has ever heard in Matthew the sixth chapter
Therefore I say to you do not worry about your life what you will eat or what you will drink or about your body
What you will put on is not life more than food and the body more than clothing
Look at the birds of the air for they neither sow nor reap nor gather and barns yet
Your heavenly Father feeds them or you not of more value than they
Which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature? So why do you worry about clothing?
consider the lilies of the field how they grow they neither toil nor spend and yet I said to you that even Solomon
All of his glory was not arrayed like one of these
Now if God so clothes the grass of the field which today is and tomorrow is thrown into the oven
Will he not much more clothe you
Oh you of little faith
Therefore do not worry saying what shall we eat or what shall we drink or what shall we wear for after all these things
The Gentiles seek for your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things
But seek first the kingdom of God in His righteousness and all of these things shall be added unto you
Therefore do not worry about tomorrow for tomorrow will worry about its own things
Sufficient for the day is its own trouble
Simple profound
God gives you what you need
And I’m sure that many of you have things looming out there in the future that you know is going to require answers
And you don’t have those answers
But you know what the greatest way that you can show faith in God is to refuse to worry about it
Refuse to think about it excessively and every time it comes to your brain just say, I don’t know what I’m gonna do
But I know the God who does know what I’m gonna do
And that’s when we get over into the miracle realm with God where he can do exceedingly abundantly
Above and beyond all that we could ever dare to hope ask or think
Many of you have got a wonderful testimony in your life of what God has done for you
And God has brought you some from some places that nobody would ever thought that you could have recovered from
Of course, I have that same testimony myself, and I’m telling you what God is no respecter of persons
His promises are not for somebody else or an elite few. They are for you. He is here right now
And He is taking care of your situation
You don’t have to worry
God will do one of two things if you have a problem
He will either remove the problem which is always our first choice
And usually the only thing that we think we can even be remotely satisfied with
He will either remove the problem our he will give you the strength the grace the ability to go through
The problem now, I know we don’t like to going through part
But I’m telling you if you can say God, I know you’ll do one of two things
You’re either going to remove this you’re going to move it. You’re going to take it away
or your going to give me the grace to deal with it
And if we can trust God enough to leave that choice up to him
Because if he lets us go through it, then he’s got a purpose in mind
There’s something we’re going to get out of it that we need
Trust in God is wonderful
It’s so wonderful to just say I don’t understand this
But I believe God’s going to work it out
I do not understand this. It hurts so bad. I feel like I can’t stand it
But I believe that God is going to work it out
Some way somehow, I believe that God is gonna work it out
