I often heard people said that as you get older you tend to worry more.

Well, it seems as if that statement is true because the older I get the worrier I become.

I worry about my children especially my son.

Will he ever become independent and able to take care of himself? Will he achieve his dreams of becoming a pilot?

Will my children give their hearts totally to God?

I know for sure that if they trust in the Lord as much as I do then I would worry about them less.

Yesterday was one of those days when I found myself worrying a lot.

Then the Lord said to me, “Bev, you worry more because you are not praying more.”

What?

Then, I remembered wrting a post on that same topic.

So I decided to read it again. Three unneccessary things to worry about.

How can I encourage others not to worry when I am no different?

How can I encourage others to pray more when my prayer life is not up to standard?

Have you ever heard the statement, practice what you preach?

Sometimes it is good to admonish yourself in the Lord. 🙂

Why is praying better than worrying?

Praying changes things while worrying leaves things unchange.

Praying strenthen and revitalize you both physically and spiritually while worrying drains you mentally and leads to stress related diseases.

Praying boost your faith and confidence in God while worrying increases your doubts and depletes your faith.

Praying is direct communication with God while worrying is withrawing yourself into a world of self pity.

Praying is a weapon to defeat the enemy while worrying is surrendering to the enemy.

Praying brings joy to your heart while worrying increases anxiety and sadness.

Praying is powerful while worrying is cowardly.

Praying is…

Wow! What more can I say?

I will leave the rest to you my friends.

Finish the sentence.

Praying is……..
While worrying is……

Thank you and may God bless you. I trust that you have overcome the spirit of worrying.

Beverley has been serving the Lord since she was a child. At an early age, she recognized that God had a special plan for her life, but it was not until in her adulthood that she surrendered her total life to God and accepted the mandate that God placed on her life. The Lord called her into His Kingdom to be an encourager, intercessor, teacher, scribe, priest, and to proclaim the Word of God. Since then, Beverly has established a blog to teach us to become the oil and wine. The oil and wine are purified and mature products, which is the advanced level that the Lord expected of us. In 2017, Beverley published her first book, Harm Not The Oil And Wine. In it, she described her trials and how God helped her to overcome them, and to live more victoriously. The book also exposed the enemy of our souls with detailed information about his past defeats and future extinction. Wright spents most of her time studying the Bible to know the truth of God’s Word. She believes that only God’s truth can expose the deception of the enemy, and uproot and tear down spiritual strongholds. You can learn more about Beverley’s life and testimony on her website becomingtheoilandwine.com. You can also find her on Facebook and Google+ under the name of her blog, and on Twitter as @Theoilandwine. View all posts by Beverley
