WORRIED?

FAITH CAPSULE: Are you worrying consciously or unconsciously?

John 20

Worrying is not of God.

Worrying is the evidence of doubt, the weapon used by the devil to contaminate or terminate the testimony of a believer of God.
Jesus warns in Matthew 6:25, “Do not worry about your life…”
In all that pertains to life, there should be no WORRYING.
Worrying is against God.
Worrying is the way of calling God a liar, looking away from God to live with no regard to God.
Worrying is not worshiping God.
Not worshipping God is not seeking God.
Not seeking God is taking a position not to see God in His word.
Worrying is a spirit that is not of God but to have a position in the life of a believer.
To be worrying is taking a distance from God.
With distance from God, one will have a space that is open for worrying to occupy.
Where worrying settles, it builds up to fear.
One with fear encased in worrying will make the wrong decision and could be running in the place of walking.
Worrying excuses no one and is possible in the life of anyone with title in the believer.
For example, the disciples of Jesus demonstrated fear that is rooted in worrying.
After the resurrection, Jesus visited the disciples as they locked themselves in the state of their fear of the Jews. John 20:19-20 documents, “Then, the same day at evening, being the first day of the week, when the doors were shut where the disciples were assembled, for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in the midst, and said to them, “Peace be with you.” 20 When He had said this, He showed them His hands and His side. Then the disciples were glad when they saw the Lord.”
Worrying will shut down anyone that gives to worrying self.
The disciples were shut down and did not make any move because of their fear rooted in worrying.
Are you living in doubt that the Lord is awake in your life if you will give yourself to the Lord?
Thomas, a disciple of Jesus, demonstrated doubt in the place of the congregation of worrying.
John 20:24-25 documents the doubt of Thomas in the place of fear that is rooted in worrying, “Now Thomas, called the Twin, one of the twelve, was not with them when Jesus came. 25 The other disciples, therefore, said to him, “We have seen the Lord.” So he said to them, “Unless I see in His hands the print of the nails, and put my finger into the print of the nails, and put my hand into His side, I will not believe.” 
Worrying, having fear is not the way to walk with God.
Worship God in the place of worrying.

Prayer for today:
Ask that all the spirit that is not of God, that is of worrying, be converted for you to be worshipping God.
Ask for the strength and character of worshipping God in all areas of life.
