The Third Tool For Coping With Anxiety Attacks: Praise or Thanksgiving

Please understand it really is okay to be anxious, and it really is not a sin...(See previous posts on coping with anxiety.)  Next to cope God gives us hope by inviting us to pray and petition Him.  The next part is critical....
 
Overcoming Anxiety Attacks through spirituality requires we pray, petition and do so "With Thanksgiving."  Thank God He is in control.  Thank God He is the Wonderful Counselor who listens.  Thank God that He is NOT surprised by the anxiety provoking event.  Thank God that He knew how it started and how the event will end. Praise God for the fact you are never alone.  Thank Him that in your weakness He cares about your anxieties.  Thank Him that it is indeed at the point of your weakness that He will make you strong.  Thank God that He indeed understands the anxiety you are facing.  And as you praise Him,  He will come to inhabit your praise and balance your emotions, while you Pray, Petition and Praise.
 
One thing that is really important to note is that we don't have to feel "good" to say thank you, God.  We just need to practice the praise... for we live by faith and not by sight (emotions.) The less painful and more balanced... and even joyful emotions are more likely going to happen when we simply carry out God's plan for coping with Anxiety.  Focusing on a gratitude list will impart thoughts of gratitude and feelings of the same.
 
Practice these things and
Be Blessed 2day
Especially 2day.

American & "Pride"

Image
 THE MEGA PROBLEM OF "PRIDE" Our country, and especially our leaders, have stolen a God Covenant Symbol-- THE RAINBOW-- which declares God's judgment for unholy living will never be accomplished through flood waters; however,  this doesn't mean God will NOT judge a nation,  or planet that is sin filled and full of pride.  We are living in a time that Jesus describes, in the Bible,  as "The Days of Noah." He prophesied of our day being like the generation that caused God to regret HE had ever made human beings.  Why? The answer is simple: HE had this regret because of "PRIDE." How 🤔 is pride demonstrated? 1. Pride shows itself when people worship the creature rather than THE Creator. 2 . Pride is exemplified when people become the idols, and mere human pseudo truth & rules for life are contrary to Almighty God's Law, which human beings use to govern life. 3. Pride is seen in our irreverence for God's name via the confession of our mouth

We Can Be So Much More.

   We Can Be So Much More:  Let us learn about the powerful identity God the Father gives us, through our being IN Christ Jesus by the power of The Holy Spirit. Let us embrace our God given Eternal Inheritance.  ( Ephesians 1:3-14)  Let us get up, each morning and give ourselves up to God. (Romans 12:1-2.)  Let us wake up! And practice Gods practice of putting off the deeds of darkness, of being empowered to behave decently, like people who live in the day time. (Romans 13:11-14) Let us cloth our selves, in Jesus, by putting on the full armor of God each day! This will make us strong in the Lord and in His mighty power, and it will give us all we need to stand against the Devil's schemes. (Ephesians 6:10-20) Let us submit to God, and resist the Devil so he will have to flee from us. (James 4:7) Learn all we can about the enemy and know he has no authority over us. But in Christ we have God's resurrection power flowing in us and through us. In Jesus Name 🙏  SoJourner

W A T C H O U T ! ! ! JESUS TEACHING ON LEADERS

Image
  Jesus Rock Solid Teaching Regarding Picking Leaders Matthew 7:15-23      "Watch out for false prophets! They come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves!  By their fruits you shall recognize them!  Do people pick grapes from thorn bushes or figs from thistles? Likewise, every good tree bears good fruit, and every bad tree bears bad fruit. A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot bear good fruit. Every tree that does NOT bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. Thus by their fruit you will recognize them. Not everyone who says to me 'Lord, Lord' will enter the Kingdom of Heaven, but ONLY those who do the will of my Father in Heaven. Many will say to me on the day they give account of their lives, 'Lord, Lord' did we not prophesy in your name, and in you name drive out demons, and in your name perform many miracles?  Then I will tell them plainly, ' I never knew you! Away from me, you evil doers!'
