Philippians 4:6 says “be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayers and supplication, with thanksgiving let your request be made known unto God. God doesn’t want you to be fearful, fretful or anxious. Instead, He wants you to be fearful for nothing, and with Prayers and supplication, your request is made known unto him.
So when you have a care or worry, straightaway, turn the care or worry into prayers. That is supplication, and when you are troubled by care or worry that you don’t know how to pray for, pray in the spirit or tongues. And in the midst of that prayer thank God that He’s already your healing, provision, good success and victory… That is thanksgiving!
If I am worried about something how long should I pray? Keep on praying, pray in the spirit and in your understanding until the worry leaves and dissipates, and the Peace of God which surpasses all understanding will guide your heart and mind through Chris Jesus.
As children of God, I believe that we would all worry a lot less and enjoy our lives a lot more, if only we realized this truth: That our Abba Father is so strong and that there’s nothing He cannot do, and He’s so loving that there is nothing He cannot do for us.
