Faith Is Action: Reject Worry and Walk in the Word of God
Replace Worry With Prayer
Any time you feel tempted to worry, rise up and begin to worship God and pray. Faith is action. Faith is not wishful thinking. Faith moves. Faith obeys God. Faith responds to the Word of God.
Jesus walked constantly in obedience to the Word of God. He lived by the will of the Father. In the same way, believers must choose to walk according to God’s instructions.
The Bible says:
“Rejoice in the Lord always.”
“Pray without ceasing.”
“In everything give thanks.”
“Making melody in your heart to the Lord.”
When you choose to obey these instructions, your mind and spirit begin to align with the peace and presence of God.
Worry is a habit, and prayer is also a habit. Fear is a habit, and worship is a habit. You must choose which one you will practice daily.
God has not given us a spirit of fear or worry. Fear brings torment, anxiety, confusion, and emotional bondage. But the Holy Spirit brings freedom, peace, liberty, and rest.
2 Corinthians 3:17 says:
“Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.”
Worry is a choice. Fear is a choice. But prayer, worship, praise, thanksgiving, and faith are also choices.
Philippians 4:6-7 says:
“Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known unto God; and the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.”
The Word of God already tells believers what to do instead of worrying. Present every request to God. Pray. Worship. Thank Him. Trust Him. Speak His promises.
The enemy constantly tries to poison the minds of believers with fear, discouragement, anxiety, doubt, and negative thoughts. This is exactly what happened in the Garden of Eden. The serpent poisoned the minds of Adam and Eve against God by making them doubt His goodness and His Word.
The devil still uses the same strategy today. He tries to fill people’s minds with fear, hopelessness, condemnation, confusion, and lies. But believers must reject those thoughts and replace them with the Word of God.
Instead of accepting fearful thoughts, begin to declare the promises of God:
“The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.”
“Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil.”
“The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear?”
“The blood of Jesus has set me free.”
As believers speak and meditate on God’s Word, fear loses its power and peace begins to fill the heart.
Proverbs 23:7 says:
“As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he.”
Negative thoughts damage the mind, emotions, spirit, and even the body. That is why believers must guard their thoughts carefully and meditate on things that are pure, holy, good, and uplifting.
Philippians 4:8 says:
“Whatever things are true, whatever things are honest, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report… think on these things.”
When the mind is constantly filled with fear, worry, negativity, and discouragement, the soul becomes weak and burdened. But when the mind is filled with the Word of God, the Holy Spirit strengthens, renews, and transforms the believer from the inside out.
The Word of God must move from the mind into the spirit. Just as food nourishes the body and strengthens it physically, the Word of God nourishes the spirit and strengthens faith spiritually.
As believers meditate on Scripture, pray, worship, and confess God’s promises, the Holy Spirit begins to refine the soul, renew the mind, and clothe the believer with spiritual strength, wisdom, purity, and glory.
Joshua 1:8 says:
“This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate in it day and night… for then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success.”
God does His part, but believers must also do their part. God will not force anyone to read the Bible, pray, meditate, or worship. Believers must choose daily to spend time in God’s presence.
Mary sat at the feet of Jesus listening to His Word, while Martha was distracted with many activities. Jesus commended Mary because she chose the better part.
Many people are busy with life but neglect spending time with God. Yet it is in God’s presence that the soul is refined, renewed, strengthened, and clothed with spiritual garments of glory, wisdom, righteousness, and victory.
Decide today to live by every Word that proceeds from the mouth of God. Decide to partner with the Holy Spirit. Reject every thought of fear, worry, anxiety, discouragement, and darkness.
Rejecting the Word of God leads to confusion, deception, torment, and spiritual weakness. But embracing God’s Word brings life, peace, wisdom, healing, strength, and victory.
James 4:7 says:
“Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.”
Darkness of the soul can manifest as torment, emotional pain, confusion, fear, and even physical weakness. That is why believers must reject negative thoughts and allow the Holy Spirit to renew the mind daily through prayer, worship, thanksgiving, and meditation on the Word of God.
May the Holy Spirit strengthen you as you meditate on God’s Word.
May He fill your heart with peace, faith, wisdom, and joy.
May every spirit of fear, worry, anxiety, and discouragement leave your life.
May God renew your mind and establish you in truth and righteousness.
May great grace be upon you in Jesus’ name, Amen.
