God's indispensible weapon....His word

James 1:2-4
Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sister, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perserverance. Let perserverance finish its work so you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.

Romans 12:12
Rejoice in our confident hope. Be patient in trouble, and keep on praying.

John 14:27
I am leaving you with a gift- peace of mind and heart. And the peace I give is a gift the world cannot give. So dont be troubled or afraid.

Philippians 4:6
Don't worry about anthing; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done.

These are just some of the verses in the bible that talk about worry. I struggle with anxiety and worry, but these verses have helped me out a lot. Plus the people in my life that have been able to talk to me about their anxiety and pray for me. I believe that these verses, God, and people in my life have helped me get through my anxiety and not be troubled so much. I just wanted to share them with you. Many of us struggle with worry. I just wanted to give you something powerful and true that you can hold on to as well. Even if you repeat it hundreds of times a day, if really helps. Even say these verses out loud. There is power in God's spoken word.

Ephesians 6:10-18
And that about wraps it up. God is strong and He wants you strong. So take everything the Master has set out for you, well-made weapons of the best materials. Amd put them to use so you will be able to stand up against everthing the Devil throws you way. This is no afternoon athletic contest that we'll walk away from and forget about in a couple of hours. This is for keeps, a life-or-death fight to the finish against the Devil and all his angels. Be prepared. You're up against far more than you can handle on your own. Take all the help you can get, every weapon God has issued, so that when it's all over but the shouting you'll be on your feet. Truth, rightousness, peace, faith, and salvation are more than words. Learn how to apply them. You'll need them throughout your life. God's word is an indispensible weapon. In the same way, prayer is essential in this ongoing welfare. Pray hard and long. Pray for your brothers and sisters. Keep your eyes open. Keep each other's spirits up so that no one falls behind or drops out.
