Give it to God

Mike Kankelfritz and Sally Barton on how to trust Him with your deepest fears

When a problem pops up, Christians often respond with the advice, “Just give it to God.”

But what does that phrase really mean—and can you truly trust that He cares about your smallest worries and biggest fears?

Every day we’re reminded that you can, as we hear from listeners like you. Often, the calls and emails are from people looking for a breakthrough from God. They’re stuck, facing a problem they can’t overcome, and they’re desperate to see God show up.

And He does… in so many different ways! As soon as we give our worries or problems to Him completely, He meets us in our need with hope, joy, guidance and love.

Think of Philippians 4:6-7, “Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God…” The next part is the best:

“And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”

You see, when we give our worries and fears to God, He gives us so much peace it doesn’t even make sense!

The Holy Spirit wants you to relinquish your worries to Him. Bring them to Him in prayer and petition—and let Him cover you in indescribable peace.

So, let go and let God. He’s waiting on you!

And if you’re ever in need, we’d love to pray for you here at Family Life Radio. You can share your prayer requests with us at www.myflr.org/prayerwall. And thank you for your partnership that makes it possible to pray through the struggles and rejoice in the victories together!
