Don’t you want to be done with worry?

So it never comes back?

Don’t you want to shelve it away for good

And never see life’s lack?

Don’t you want to never answer…

Worry’s urgent pleas?

Don’t you want to ignore its thoughts

And rather be set free?

Don’t you want to say

Dear Jesus, I will always trust you?

Don’t you want this one prayer to last forever?

For your whole life too?

Aye, I would want that!

I would truly rejoice!

If worry was non-existent, I could just hear God’s voice! 

But as I write this now,

I am aware of this one fact,

No matter how hard you try,

Worry always come back!

Why does worry come back?

I hear you ask today…

Because worry is a lying spirit,

He wants the final say!

So what’s the solution?

To become the

Worst worrier of all?

Where you say with real joy

I can’t worry at all?

Imagine if you never worried!

You knew God was fully in control!

Well, guess what, my special friend?

Worry is not God’s will at all!

Worry Is Forbidden

W.I.F. is from God’s Word 

Faith makes life easier

When you live like the birds. 

Change worry

To a spirit

And then you will see

That worry is not just a word!

But demonic activity! 

Knock, knock, I hear a sound!

I open up the door 

I see worry standing there

He has stung me before!

Worry speaks now

His sting is in my mind

He addresses my thinking 

He is not heaven’s design!

TRUST GOD EVEN WHEN THE JAR IS EMPTY

I am man’s temptation!

I’m bait of a hidden kind

I make human souls disbelieve God

But all inside their mind!

You won’t see me visibly

When I tempt the souls on earth! 

I am the dark side and God’s enemy

I cause fear, pain and hurt!

In the moments when you forget God,

I make you spiritually sick!

My temptation called worry, causes unbelief real quick!

I break “you” down bit by bit,

I make sure your worry is justified!

Then once my mind hook has reeled you in, I create new chains inside!

The root of worry comes from me, 

I am not God’s voice at all

I belong to Satan’s army

I sting and then you fall! 

I know you are a Christian, 

You are different!

Redeemed and set apart!

You are God’s holy treasure 

You have Jesus in your heart!

My sting works best on hard days!

My sting weakens your mind

My subtle plan of unbelief

Was never God’s design. 

If you saw me hiding there

You would never take my bait!

But you often forget I’m watching you

And then faith comes back too late!

In the name of Jesus, depart! 

You revealed yourself to me!

Now as I write this poem today,

Faith comes flooding back to me!

When worry comes knocking today

Don’t justify Satan’s choice 

Don’t feed him more and more! 

But learn to know God’s voice!

Learn to say, worry, flee! You are an evil kind

Your worry is never justified

You are never God’s design!

  1. Wow… this hit home. I still struggle with worry, but I’m learning to trust God more each day. This reminder to recognize worry as a lie and lean on God’s voice instead is exactly what I needed as I’m sure many out here also needed it. 🙏

      1. Haha yes, Helen… I’m telling myself the same thing… “No more worrying, God’s got this…” One day, one prayer, one step at a time. 🙏😊
