Good morning - something I struggle with ...

[Nopoe]

Good morning - something I struggle with as a believer is just dealing with general anxiety. I have financial anxiety (and am in no way struggling or pinching pennies), but I always have this fear of financial stress while having three small kids. I have a decent job, wife works PT, and again, we are probably lower middle class, but again, by no means are struggling. My anxiety really focuses on me not trusting God, not trusting in his plan, and constantly worrying about the what-ifs when it comes to financial dilemmas. It ebbs and flows, but right now is in a particularly bad frame of mind. Any advice on how I can reframe this state of mind and focus on god's provisions and grace/mercy, and not the constant fear of "what if"?

Thanks

Dear Heavenly Father,

We come before You in the name of Jesus, lifting up our brother Nopoe who is struggling with anxiety, particularly financial anxiety. Lord, we thank You for the provisions You have already granted him and his family. Your Word reminds us in Philippians 4:6-7, "Be careful 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."

Father, we ask that You help Nopoe to trust in Your plan and provision. Help him to cast all his anxieties on You, knowing that You care for him . Strengthen his faith and remind him daily of Your promises. May he find comfort in knowing that You are Jehovah Jireh, our Provider, and that You will supply all his needs according to Your riches in glory by Christ Jesus .

Lord, we pray for peace to guard his heart and mind. Help him to focus on Your grace and mercy, and not on the "what-ifs" of financial dilemmas. Teach him to rest in Your sovereignty and to trust that You are in control of every situation.

We thank You, Lord, for hearing our prayer. We trust in Your unfailing love and provision. In Jesus' name, we pray.

Amen.

We could be twins. it was only after the constant ”what ifs” that happened and some that didn’t…..that I began to see that no matter what the “what ifs“ that God provided. I have 3kids who are now teens but when they were little it was constant financial worry and I too was by no means struggling …..as long as no big bills came my way. Looking back it was satan’s way of stealing my joy. but looking back and seeing how He provided I can feel confident for the future that no matter what…. Gods got it and will make it all work out for our good. I don’t like going thru because I still worry but I have more peace than I ever had. Sorry but it won’t happen over night. It took the years of going thru it that I can see how he rescued me each time. I even started writing them down so I can look back when the what-ifs happen. Think of it this way,…how can you know your rescuer if you never need rescued?. I hope and pray you too find the same confidence that can only come from God. Not arrogant or over confident, but a peaceful God confidence. Be blessed in Jesus name.

This is incredible. I really appreciate it. I have 3 young ones, 3, 6, and 9, and it sounds like you were in a very similar spot. It would be cool to stay in touch! Thanks!

Absolutely. Mine are 19, 16, 15. And yes I was and still am very much like you. Right now they’re in Florida with my wife and of course the worry started the day they left Pennsylvania to drive the 1100 miles. Will they make it? Will I have to do a search and rescue if the car breaks down? Haha. And if it does will I have the money to take care of the expense of getting them back home and car repairs. Those are the what ifs. But like I said I have the confidence that God will make whatever happens work out and will provide. Hope you start to feel the same soon. i just wish I would have realized it much sooner. I feel like i wasted a lot of time living in fear. Be blessed in Jesus name. And I would like to keep in touch to see how you're progressing on your faith journey but I don’t want to put any personal email addresses out there on a public forum like this.

Thank you for giving us the privilege to pray on your behalf. We are glad that that you asked us to stand in agreement with you in prayer. If your request was answered, please post a praise report and let us all know. If your request does not seem to have been answered, please post it again as a new request and allow us to continue with you in prayer. We all hope that our prayers are answered in the way that we want. Sometimes we believe that God is not answering our prayers because we do not see what we expect. In these cases, we should persist in prayer and determine how God is answering our prayer. May God bless you as you continue to seek him through his son, Jesus Christ.
