“Living with Uncertainty” By Bible Love Notes:

“Uncertainty is a powerful emotion, causing frustration, discouragement, and confusion.

Covid was a perfect example, affecting employment, education, finances, relationships, and travel. But many other things in life bring with them just as many uncertainties.

God understands and encourages us:

"Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." Philippians 4:6-7

Pray about everything...everything!

Pray with thanksgiving.

Expect peace that isn’t based on understanding.

"Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid." John 14:27

As we walk into our future, let’s remember the words God said to Joshua when he entered the many unknowns of the promised land:

“Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go.” —Joshua 1:9

[coptorthodox]

Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:6-7

[walkswithmyfather]

Philippians 4:6-7 (NLT). “Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus.”

Heavenly Father, let peace reign in my home, like a gentle breeze cooling a hot day. Remove any strife or discord that tries to take root. Fill our hearts with Your love, making our home a haven of rest. Amen and amen.

How to avoid unaswered prayer Part 4/4

By making scriptural prayers as in Philippians 4:6-7

We have looked at various ways as to how we might avoid making prayers that appear to go unanswered. A good place to start with our prayers is by making them so that they line up with scripture such as the one in:

Philippians 4:6 Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication (petition), with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; 7 and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

Here is a good scriptural approach to making scriptural prayers that God is pleased to answer.

v6 God does not want you anxious or worrying , in fact worry is a sin because it doubts Gods ability to bring a timely answer. Furthermore and importantly we ought to pray with concomitant thanking of the Lord. Here is what this looks like in practice...

Father God, in the name of Jesus Christ, I thank you that you have heard this prayer , and that you care about the situation and will respond at the appropriate time and manner. Amen

Here is what we can hope to happen next;

v7 the peace of God comes upon you This peace given by the Lord is beyond our ability to understand it but we can be aware that such peace guards our minds from all doubt , fear and unbelief. We can rest in the Lord once we have prayed correctly according to scripture.

This in turn boosts our faith because we have reassured ourselves that God has heard our prayer and the outcome is in his hands and that the Lord cares.

Amen

Personal Prayer

[In Philippians 4: 6-7, Saint Paul says:] "Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God." Wedged into those verses is that small but powerful word, “thanksgiving” — a word that seems to be completely disconnected from anxiousness. In fact, being thankful in the face of fear seems odd, possibly phony. Is Paul recommending that we ‘fake it till we make it'? No. We see multiple references in Scripture to how much God hates pretense and posturing. But in 1 Thessalonians 5:18, Paul again says to give thanks in all situations because that is God’s will for us in Christ Jesus. All situations? Is that even possible? Can we actually thank God as we wait in that sterile hospital room? Can we thank Him when we are plagued with worry about the future of a prodigal child? Can we thank Him through the storms of a difficult marriage? Isn’t that an unrealistic instruction? Would God actually ask us to do something so counter-intuitive to our anxious state of mind? Yes, He would, and, yes, He does because our Creator knows exactly how we are wired and what we need. In turning our eyes to Jesus in thanksgiving, we are able to take our white-knuckle grip off our problems. This is not about faking it, but acknowledging and remembering God in the midst of the hard. Thanksgiving turns our eyes from our situation to our Saviour, from our overwhelming problems to His overwhelming love. We don’t give thanks because the situation merits it. We give thanks because of Who He is in the midst of our situation. We give thanks for what He may be doing in and through us when those unbearable trials descend on us. We can hold both our anxiousness and thanksgiving together. His Word tells us to do just that. We often tell ourselves a solely negative story, and in doing so we forget God's hand of blessing in our lives. We tend to focus so exclusively on our problems that we overlook how God led us through storms in the past. Even as we speak to Him about our trials, we must also spend time in thanksgiving– because even in the wilderness and the weariness, Christ is with us. His grace is sufficient, and He has promised to work all things out for our good and His glory.
