· Challenge Your Negative Thoughts With Positive Self Talk

The bible teaches us that as a man thinketh in his heart so is he… We are to think on those things that are holy, honest, just and of a good report. Know that God’s thoughts toward us or good and not evil to give us an expected end and a bright future. Any thought that is in opposition of His word is of the devil and not from Him. God said he wishes above all things that we would prosper and be in health even as our soul prospers… Soul Prosperity=Peace & Stability.

· Become a Bible Scholar

Everything we need to know about life is in God’s word. His word admonishes us to Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. We perish from a lack of knowing who God is… Most of our suffering in life is a result of our ignorance of God’s word and way of doing things. We must learn to live according to the kingdom of God… Kingdom living is not according to worldly standards. The world is full of anxiety and depression because its system is set-up selfishly and its intent is for selfish gain. God’s way is unselfish and for the gain of others…

· Be Willing to Learn (Humble)

An understanding a willing heart is one that will learn and grow. Be willing to lay down your knowledge and learn from experts and God’s assigned leaders of His word. Take correction well… It was you that brought you here, so be willing to humble yourself—lay down self knowledge and seek God’s knowledge. His way will leads to life... He is the way the truth and the life… In Christ (his way of doing things) we shall live move and have our being. Our way is unstable and leads to death…

· Be Patient

They that wait on the Lord shall renew their strength… As believers we must learn to wait on God with patience. It’s important we tolerate patience for this is one of the fruit’s of His spirit… One of the main causes of stress is impatient & anxious behavior. When we fail to take our time with life we just rush through life. We must learn to enjoy life not run through life! A stressful life only brings on anxiety which leads to more panic attacks… Patience says to take your time, trust God and expect your circumstance to change… Change is not overnight, but when we trust God we have his peace that passes all understanding… Peace is to have a calm approach to your future. You can be calm when you know your life is in the hands of a faithful God, one who has never intended for you to handle life alone. Jesus encourages us saying come unto me you who labor and are heavy laden and I will give you rest. My yoke is easy and my burden is light. Don’t carry the burden alone, be patient and wait on God. Rejoice as you wait and most of all trust while you wait. Lean not unto your own understanding, in all your ways acknowledge him and he will direct your path…
