Biblical Antidote 

How can I shape my prayers to lower my anxiety? 

Philippians 4:4-8 (NIV) >

4 Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice!
5 Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near.
6 Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.
7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
8 Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable--if anything is excellent or praiseworthy--think about such things.

1. Write a letter to God. 

Isaiah 37:16–20 (NIV) >

16 "O LORD Almighty, God of Israel, enthroned between the cherubim, you alone are God over all the kingdoms of the earth. You have made heaven and earth.

17 Give ear, O LORD, and hear; open your eyes, O LORD, and see; listen to all the words Sennacherib has sent to insult the living God.

18 "It is true, O LORD, that the Assyrian kings have laid waste all these peoples and their lands.

19 They have thrown their gods into the fire and destroyed them, for they were not gods but only wood and stone, fashioned by human hands.

20 Now, O LORD our God, deliver us from his hand, so that all kingdoms on earth may know that you alone, O LORD, are God. "

2. Take a prayer walk. 
3. Meditate. 

Philippians 4:7 (NIV) >

7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

What is God speaking to you through this message? 

What is one thing you can do this week to live out the teaching?

Real LIFE is from the Lord Jesus John 1:4-5 In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it. Acts 2:36 "Therefore let all Israel be assured of this: God has made this Jesus, whom you crucified, both Lord and Messiah." Acts 3:15 You killed the author of life, but God raised him from the dead. We are witnesses of this. 1 Corinthians 8:6 yet for us there is but one God, the Father, from whom all things came and for whom we live; and there is but one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom all things came and through whom we live. 2. Without Jesus you are SPIRITUALLY DEAD John 3:2-4 He came to Jesus at night and said, "Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher who has com...
