Be Anxious for Nothing | Philippians 4:6-7

Most people quote half of this passage. They quote be anxious for nothing and stop. But the half that keeps going is the half that does the work — prayer, petition, with thanksgiving, making your requests known to God. And then the peace of God stands sentry at the gates of your interior life.

You are not commanded to stop feeling anxious. You are commanded to replace it with a specific practice. The thanksgiving is what dethrones it.

Anchored in Philippians 4:6–7. Episode 5 of the Philippians season.

Formation to Transformation is a worship devotional for the whole worship team — leaders, musicians, vocalists, audio engineers, lighting directors, ProPresenter operators, camera, FILO.
