HELP! THE DEVIL WANTS ME ANXIOUS (part 3)
If the root cause of most diseases and ailments is excessive stress, then instead of treating the root cause, many physicians are treating the symptoms
Prescriptions to treat these symptoms are at an all time high.
(Prozac, Zoloft, Paxil, Lexapro)
These drugs DO NOT prevent stress.
Even with these addictive drugs, we are not sure that they even help the symptoms.
Excessive release of “stress hormones” damages cells, tissues, and organs.
7. Through Christ, Anxiety can be Overcome.
Phil.4:13 “I can do all things through Christ which strengthens me.”
In the Greek, the word “strengthen” means to EMPOWER.
The Apostle Paul had INVISIBLE SUPPORT.
CASE AND POINT: I don’t know about you, but my husband LOVES, loves, loves, those super hero movies. I don’t think we have ever missed a one. Why? Because the odds are unfair. He is endued with power and tears everyone up. Of course there is the evil one, but he overcomes and we walk out of the cinema happy.
God wants you to call on him because only he can give you the strength to overcome whatever catastrophes may hit your marriage.
8. God promises to meet all our needs.
Phil.4:19 “But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.”
The Philippians knew that it was impossible to out give God.
Whatever you are anxious about, remember that you cannot out give God.
STOP taking it out on your husband.
Is he wanting to get something that you have decided that not only is it to expensive but it doesn’t make sense.
Your sense, if I may. DON’T treat him like he is in kindergarten!!
He is a big healthy boy. He works hard and his desires don’t have to match yours.
In fact, they probably NEVER WILL.
Make the sacrifice for him. GOD WILL MEET YOUR NEED!!!!
Okay, we will move on wives, but one day “I’ll Be Back” and we will cover that finance topic again.
9. With you is the grace of God.
Phil.4:23 “The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all.”
Grace is Gods undeserved favor.
CASE AND POINT: Some one told my daughter that there could be a hundred girls in a room, but God will point her out and she would be chosen. That is exactly what happened to her. She was picked from a studio out of hundreds of girls to go free of charge to China.
Stay with me!!! The grace of God is WITH YOU!!
How would you even know that if you weren’t pinned in a corner.
Undeserved favor means you DON’T deserve it!!
Has your spouse done or said something stupid. Well, so have you. AND ME!!
Anxiety is a marriage killer!! You only need a dose of God’s grace!!

Thank you Modesta. Wow! Wow! Wow! Great is your reward in heaven. And I means that. What a powerful testimony and comment. You have really blessed me today. God is faithful and you are a living testimony of that. We will be praying for you.
So appreciate your perspective I know this is helpful to all that take the time to listen and to apply. So much of what you are sharing God is whispering in my hearing this is in my opinion confirmation. And I can truly say I am reaping the fruits of it in my marriage. Thank you for echoing the voice of God. Love you.
Hi Martha! Thanks so much for sharing your comment. Especially that you are reaping the fruit of it in your marriage. We do reap what we sow. We get out of our marriage what we put into it, WITH A GOOD ATTITUDE. Without a godly attitude, the deed never reaches heaven because we expect the reward here on earth.
