Last week, in part 1 of this two part series on the UncommonTEEN Podcast, we began talking about how to throw away anxiety, stress, overwhelm, and insecurities for good! 

 

God wants you walking in confidence, really embracing who it is that He created you to be! But how do we do that?

1.    It starts with truly understanding who it is that God says you are.

• John 3:16 says that you are so loved by God. 
• Ecclesiastes 3:11 says that God makes everything beautiful in its time. You are beautiful! Just the way you are! 
• Jeremiah 1:5 says that before the world was even formed, God knew everything about you and approved of you as His chosen daughter. He set you apart for a purpose.
• Isaiah 43:4 says that you are precious to God, honored by God, and loved by God!
• Jeremiah 29:11 says that God has plans for your life that are good. Plans to give you a future and a hope.
• Luke 12:24 says that you are valuable to God.

 

But In order to truly understand who God says you are, you have to intentionally make the choice to believe it! 

 

2.    Rewrite the stories you’ve been telling yourself.

 

When you feel anxious, stressed, overwhelmed or not confident in who you are…when those feelings start to pull you down, I want you to stop and think about what you’re thinking about.

 

Ask yourself, do these thoughts or do these words that I’m telling myself or maybe someone else said about me…do they line up with what God says about me? Do those thoughts line up with what God says in His Word?

 

The first way you can tell if they do or if they don’t is, how are those thoughts making you feel? If they are making you feel anxious, stressed, overwhelmed, or insecure, the answer probably is no…they do not line up with what God says about you.  

 

3.    Change your words; change your life. 

 

Our circumstances that we are facing cause our thoughts. When we dwell on those thoughts, those thoughts cause the words we begin to speak. When we begin to speak those things over our lives, our words then cause the results that we see. 

 

Pick one verse and say it over and over again until those feelings of anxiety leave. “Thank You, Lord that in John 14:27, Jesus says He has given me His peace. I thank you that I have peace.” Then repeat over again over again until you feel that peace, 
Thank You, Lord for your peace. I have the peace of Jesus. I praise You God for giving me Your peace.” 

 

Sometimes you can speak those verses for a couple minutes and anxiety will leave, sometimes you may need to be speaking those verses over yourself for an hour or two, but continue to do it until that anxiety leaves. 

 

The Word of God is powerful and can and will destroy the weapons the enemy has used against you!
