Prayer for the Worried Mind

Father, You told me not to be afraid because You are with me. You will uphold me and those who come against me will not succeed (Isiah 41:10-11).

You said no evil would come upon me, nor any plague touch my home for You have ordered Your angels to protect me (Ps 91:10-11). 

You said when I walk through rivers of difficulty (when I’m ‘in over my head’) You won’t let me drown, and when I walk through fires of adversity (when ‘the heat is on’) You won’t allow me get burned for You are watching over me (Isiah 43:2-3). 

You said no weapon formed against me shall prosper (Isiah 54:17). I cannot keep the enemy’s weapons from being formed but I know You will keep them from prospering.

You said if I ask anything according to Your will, You would grant my request (1 John 5:14). 

You said when I walk in obedience before You I will be blessed when I come in and when I go out, blessed when I lie down and blessed when I get up (Deut. 28:6). 

You told me to give all my troubles to You and You would take care of me. So here they are! Today I’m standing on Your word. You said it! I believe it! That settles it!
