Foundation scriptures:
1 Peter 5:7-10 (AMPC)
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.

8 Be well balanced (temperate, sober of mind), be vigilant and cautious at all times; for that enemy of yours, the devil, roams around like a lion roaring [in fierce hunger], seeking someone to seize upon and devour.

9 Withstand him; be firm in faith [against his onset—rooted, established, strong, immovable, and determined], knowing that the same (identical) sufferings are appointed to your brotherhood (the whole body of Christians) throughout the world.

10 And after you have suffered a little while, the God of all grace [Who imparts all blessing and favor], Who has called you to His [own] eternal glory in Christ Jesus, will Himself complete and make you what you ought to be, establish and ground you securely, and strengthen, and settle you.

The Word of God is final authority in your life.
• What dominates you: fear or faith? Choose faith.
• Anxiety and worries are fear motivated. Cast your cares on the Lord.

FAITH –

Hebrews 11:1 (KJV) Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
• Faith begins where the will of God is known.
• Faith refuses doubt.
• Godly boldness is fearless.
• The devil is a hope thief.
• The devil cannot steal your hope without your permission!
• Circumstances in life can become hope thieves if you allow them to.

• God makes a promise. Faith believes it. Hope anticipates it. Patience quietly awaits it.
