Have you
had your JOY JUICE today? It’s a sure
way to give you victory over the “worry-bug”!
I hope
you’ve had your immunization against the Worry Disease. It’s a simple, daily shot of the multi-vitamin
called "Victory in Jesus"! The way to “victory” is to be in a continual spirit of
prayer and gratitude. One of the
passages I use a lot when I am speaking to groups is 1 Thessalonians
5:16-18. It’s a very simple passage to
quote, to memorize, to share. But it’s
not always easy to apply. As a matter of
fact, without God’s help, I don’t think we can do it. “Rejoice always; pray without ceasing, in
everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.”
Often
we put the emphasis on the first part of that passage, the “be joyful, pray
always, give thanks in all things” part.
But the last few words are just as important, if not more so: “FOR THIS IS THE WILL OF GOD IN CHRIST JESUS
FOR YOU!”
God loves YOU! God want the best FOR YOU! God doesn’t want
you to be anxious…about anything! He
wants YOU to be filled with HIS joy; He desires for that personal communication
through prayer to be constant. And it
brings Him joy to hear us being thankful because a thankful heart is a joyful
heart! That’s how to have VICTORY over
worry!
Be
immunized against worry by giving God control of your life. Rejoice, pray and be thankful!
