The Favored One - Part Ten.

Westside, Houston, Texas, USA.

Text: ​“So Daniel said to the steward whom the chief of the eunuchs had set over Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah, “Please test your servants for ten days, and let them give us vegetables to eat and water to drink. Then let our appearance be examined before you, and the appearance of the young men who eat the portion of the king’s delicacies; and as you see fit, so deal with your servants.”” ― Daniel 1:11-13, NKJV. 

TFO Keynote #32: There is never going to be a situation that will justify our being worried. Worry is a fruit of fear. Worry is not the way of life. It is never going to progress you. Worry will rather take from you than give to you. (Matthew 6:25; Isaiah 28:16)

Worry is an offspring of fear, which is a corruption of faith.

Fear is not of God. Therefore, worry is not of God.

Worry is anti-God, and anti-godliness.

Worry is not the way.

There is never a good enough reason for worry.

Worry is a thief. It robs today of its bloom, its shine, its life.
The devil can only steal your goods if you let him steal your joy. Your joy is the gateway to your riches.

You plan, not worry. Worry is fear. Worry is submission to defeat. Planning is staying on top of the situation. Worry is negative energy. Planning is positive energy. Worrying disempowers you. Planning empowers you. The same situation, different approaches. Which would you rather take?

Worry opens the door to negative energy and all that is evil. It only gets worse, on the pathway worry opens.

Worry creates a monster where none exists, a nightmare in lieu of a dream.

Worry is devilwood, the devil's movie industry.

TFO Keynote #33: We should bring everything to God, our source. He is the reason why we should not worry. (Psalm 23; Philippians 4:6-7; 1 Peter 5:6-7; Psalm 23; Luke 18:1; Hebrews 11:6) 

God is our source.

God is enough for me.

God has our lives figured out.

"But the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Do not fear therefore; you are of more value than many sparrows." - Luke 12:7, NKJV.

With God we are unstoppable.

"For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world— our faith." - 1 John 5:4, NKJV.

"Then Moses and the children of Israel sang this song to the Lord, and spoke, saying: “I will sing to the Lord, For He has triumphed gloriously! The horse and its rider He has thrown into the sea!" - Exodus 15:1, NKJV.

We are called to be warriors, not worriers.

With God we are more than an overcomer.

God is our sufficiency. We are complete in Him.

God is our help. We are not helpless. We are helped.

Our confidence ought to always be in God, not in our own self.

The Saint.
