Stress has a way of controlling people’s lives wherever it is welcomed. Unless you deal with it with the word of God it would have tampered with your well-being before you know it. It gets to you when you least expect it and it takes over your life in whatever you give it the chance. It creeps up on you at the least expected moments, be it whilst stepping out of your homes onto the motorway where all manner of driving skills are tested or stepping into the office with diverse kinds of personality clashes. Stress is always lurking around, seeking whom to devour, and if you allow it into your mind, it will drag you out, but you must overcome it with the word of God.
Only the word of God can deal with the cause and symptoms of stress effectively. It will not only deliver you from its effect but it will go down to the root cause and destroy it completely whilst restoring the peace of God into your life. Whatever you tolerate will control your life. For as long as you continue to tolerate stress by giving it a chance of the day, it will find its way into your home, plant itself between you and your loved ones, show up in your workplace, on the road, in your community, on the television with the news and anywhere else you allow it to spread its wings.
Do not allow stress into your life. Do not let it control your emotions; otherwise, it will quickly drown you. Instead of accepting stress and its cohorts into your day, you can dissipate their energy as soon as you recognise them. You can reject the spirit of stress and commit the situation into God’s hands. The first way to deal with it is to recognise its many guises, where the most popular guises are with money, love and relationships. Though invisible in nature, the moment any of these guises starts to cause you a form of anxiety, aggravation, fear, anger or any other negative emotions, you must reject its advances, kick it out of your life and normalcy is guaranteed afterwards.
Speak the Word of God over Yourself to Overcome stress, and it will change Your World for the Best.
Speak the Word and Change our World
