Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.
Bad things happen to all of us. You might have recently received bad news or gotten a bad grade. What do you do when bad things happen?
The answer from the Bible is always the same- don’t worry, pray. We pray because nothing is too big or too small to give to God in prayer. We often try to work things out on our own and sometimes make things worse. That’s why we need to come to God about what to do.
But here’s the catch. We have to turn off the phone, turn off the music, get alone with God and quiet enough to hear Him speak. “With thankful hearts offer up your prayer and requests to God” Philippians 4:6. Before the request- stop and thank Him for who He is, what He has done for you. Amazingly, you will sense His presence. Then out of respect ask Him your request.
Too often we barge in right away with a request- instead of taking the protocol of this verse.
Thank Him- worship Him and then ask Him for the request. Then be quiet and listen for His answer.
