Freedom from worries - it's a prison in your life
- The more you worry, the more you fear
- Matthew 6:25-34
- Jesus do not want us to worry!
STOP Technique
- Specify your worries - write out what you're worrying about!
- Take action on your worries - turn your worry into action (e.g. call someone who you're worrying about); do something about what you want
- Offer a prayer to God - i.e. something which we can't do about
Philippians 4:6-7 (compare between NIV and MSG version)
instead of worrying, Pray to God
- Place your trust in God - Proverbs 3:5-6
Our life is not subjected to luck, fate. God pours great things to make your life full
Jesus is the prison breaker in our life (worry breaker)
Things you must not worry
- things that you can do about
- things that you can't do about
Worries take away our joys and make us feel tired.
Instead of worrying, seek first his kingdom of God!
Be a blessing to others instead of worying for others/yourself.
BREAK OUT FROM THE PRISON OF WORRIES!
