Give your cares to Jesus!

Give your cares to Jesus.
- Pastor Ashish Mathews

I Peter 5:7
casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you.

Lets look at this verse in the Amplified version, Casting the whole of your care [all your anxieties, all your worries, all your concerns, once and for all] on Him, for He cares for you affectionately and cares about you watchfully.

Jesus is your Lord and He has commanded you to give him all your cares, worries, anxieties and concerns. Be obedient and do exactly what he says. Refuse to carry it any longer. Turn it over to Him and refuse to take it back. Refuse to touch it again. Refuse to give words to it. Refuse to pay any attention to it. When you are tempted to worry, boldly declare, "I have given all my cares, anxieties, worries and concerns to Jesus and He is taking care right now, I refuse to worry and I refuse to take it back from His hands. I choose to celebrate because Jesus is my caretaker and therefore all things are working together for my good and the best is yet to come. Thank you Lord Jesus"  Once you give your cares to Jesus, refuse to take it back. Worry is expensive because it causes stress, health problems, chaos in relationships, unhealthy habits and eventually leads to wrong decisions. Notice, Jesus didn't command us to manage worry, He said give it to me, I can handle all of it. He is Love and everything He says is for our benefit because He cares for us and love us deeply. Believe that He loves you and cares for you!

Friend, we live in a planet where worrying has become as natural as breathing. They say its common and its sensible to do so. No wonder, there has been a tremendous increase in the stress level, health problems, unhealthy habits, broken relationships and so on in our world. But, you are from another planet called heaven. You are a citizen of heaven. We don't worry, we don't manage worry, we give it all to our King, Jesus and He takes care of it. We acknowledge and celebrate the fact that our Lord has all our cares and He is working on it and its all turning out for our good.

"Because Jesus is my caretaker, I refuse to carry any worry and cares, I give it all to Jesus. Thank you Lord you are dealing with it and its working for my good. I am carefree and I enjoy my life with the Lord Jesus."
