“When I said, “My foot is slipping,” your unfailing love, LORD, supported me. When anxiety was great within me, your consolation brought me joy.”
Psalm 94:18-19
Interesting that the psalmist didn't say, "If my anxiety was great within me." He used the word when. He knew those anxious thoughts would surely come, and they would certainly fill every space within us. Like fire ants, they will sting every part of our spirits.
But he also knew we don't need to succumb to those fears. God will hold us up and delight our souls.
Satan wants to destroy us from the inside out. He whispers our worst fears, filling our minds with anxiety. But Satan is a liar and a loser. We don't need to listen to him. When that voice of doubt fills our heads, we need to . He is there, reassuring us. He is there, holding us up. He is there, comforting us and filling our souls with delight.
Here are 3 tips to keep anxiety away:
1) Have a time of Bible study every day
Spending time in daily Bible study isn’t just a habit—it’s a lifeline. It grounds you in God’s truth, provides wisdom for your decisions, and offers peace. Allow God’s Word to shape your thoughts, guide your actions, and strengthen your faith.
2) Replace anxious thoughts with corresponding Bible verses
If there’s a specific area in your life where you struggle with anxiety, find and memorize Scriptures that address it. Write them down and repeat them to yourself as needed.
3) Recall all the blessings you’ve received from the Lord
Remember Philippians 4:6: "Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God."
"Dear Father, thank You for Your loving-kindness, which gives me strength. Thank You for delighting my soul with Your love. Help me to hear Your voice above all others. Amen."
