DID YOU KNOW WORRY IS A SIN

Did you know worry is a sin? Have I shocked you? The Bible says worry is a prayer blocker. Everyone knows the parable of the sower, but have you applied it to your life? Do you remember what happens to the first seed? The birds come and eat it. The seed was the word. I have learned to pray before each church service for God to bind the word spoken, to my heart, that the enemy may not steal it. The only power in your prayer life is the word you know. If the word is stolen by the enemy it bears no fruit. The second seed was destroyed by persecution and offence. It did not bear fruit. The third seed was choked out by the cares (worries) of the world. Again no fruit bearing. The fourth word was sown on good ground and bore fruit some 30 some 60 some 100 fold. The scripture that gives power to get the worry out of your life is found in Phil. 4:6-7 Don't worry about anything: instead pray about everything. Tell God what you need and thank Him for all He has done. Then you will experience God's peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Jesus Christ. (NLT) . 2Cor. 10:5 goes along with that which says.... We destroy every proud obstacle that keeps people from knowing God. We capture their rebellious thoughts and teach them to obey Christ. My friend Nona does it like this. She imagines a basket outside the door of her house. Before she enters she dumps the days worries there for Jesus to deal with. Only peace goes inside with her. Peace follows Nona wherever she goes. She has no prayer blockers in her life and goes directly to the throne of God with her petitions. Remember worry is a sin and a prayer blocker. Your body was not made to bear it and will eventually make you sick if you carry it too long. It is a curse not a blessing, sooo my friend be blessed of God and give that stuff to Him. He dumps it in the deepest sea and erects a no fishing sign. Once you have dumped it, do not pick it up again. BE BLESSED OF GOD , LOVE YOU, LINDA
