Under Control - Pastor Micah Gay


Listen Later

What do you do when your thoughts start running wild?

Anxiety. Fear. Worst-case scenarios playing on repeat in your mind.

Most people try to suppress those feelings or pretend everything is fine. But the Bible offers a different path: taking your thoughts captive and living under the control of Christ.

In this message, Pastor Micah shares a deeply personal moment from a week when global tensions put his wife in a dangerous region overseas. In the middle of uncertainty, he experienced something powerful: anxiety knocking at the door, but the peace of God standing guard.

This episode dives into what Scripture really teaches about controlling your thoughts, overcoming anxiety, and finding peace that doesn’t depend on circumstances.

You’ll discover:

• Why feelings don’t have to decide your life

• What it actually means to take thoughts captive (2 Corinthians 10:5)

• How the peace of God guards your mind (Philippians 4)

• Why what you meditate on shapes your entire life

• A practical 3-step process to stop destructive thought spirals

Just because anxiety is loud around you doesn’t mean it gets to rule within you.

You don’t have to bow to fear.

You can live under control — Spirit-led, truth-anchored, and steady even in chaos.

If you’ve been battling anxious thoughts, emotional overwhelm, or mental spirals, this conversation will help you reclaim authority over your mind through Christ.
