11 Powerful Bible Verses About Worry To Pray Over Yourself Daily

Are you worried, tired, and overwhelmed? To tell you the truth, the Christian life is not smooth sailing, it comes with its ups and downs, But God has promised us that when we walk through the valley of the shadow of death, He will always be with us. 

The Lord knows that we live in a fallen world, and with spiritual battles waging around us, we will feel down and have to worry from time to time. 

We are children of God, and we can not allow worry, stress, and anxiety to win over us; God has given us the tactics to overcome worry, it is why God has given us words to say to battle this spiritual warfare when they arise. 

As children of God, we have powerful words in the Bible that we can speak to battle the enemy with the power of God. For instance, when the enemy tempted Jesus in the wilderness, Jesus did not remain silent. Instead, He took up the Sword of the Spirit, which is the Word Of God (Ephesians 6:17) and began wielding it against the enemies lies, and after the third temptation, when Jesus answered the devil with the Word Of God, the devil left Him (Matthew 4:11). 

So with us also, when the enemy comes to tempt us or cause us to worry – we have the Power of the Word Of God to combat the lies of the enemy; all the enemy knows how to do, is to lie because he is the father of lies (John 8:44). 

Sis, when you are overwhelmed or worried, the first thing you have to do is go to the word of God and search for scriptures that speak to your situation, and start wielding that sword (the scripture) in the face of the enemy. 

In most cases, the very thing you are worried about, God already plans to solve that situation – so it is best to approach God in prayer and talk to Him. 

I will share a couple of Bible Scriptures that you can pray to help you overcome worry in your life. Also, the enemy has no power over a child of God. 

Prayers To Overcome Worry In Your Life

Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life? (Matthew 6:25-27 NIV)
