It kept rolling over and over. Then I looked on FB and read the Pioneer Trac\u200bt\u200b \u200bBroadcaster Tom had posted, <span style=\"color:#0000ff;\"><a style=\"color:#0000ff;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.pioneertract.com\/broadcasters\/deal.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Making a Deal<\/a><\/span>. It really struck me about the promises of God. A deal is a deal. Walking humbly with God and obeying Him and the promises that come with that. Then, &#8220;Be anxious for nothing&#8221;, kept rolling in my mind again so I looked that up:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color:#000000;\">Philippians 4\u200b \u200b(New King James Version\u200b)\u200b<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color:#000000;\">&#8220;6 Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; 7 and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color:#000000;\">\u200bI feel like Jesus is letting me see the &#8220;spirit of being anxious&#8221; and how it has \u200bmove\u200bd\u200b me and hinder\u200b\u200b \u200bme. Part of being righteous is asking Him, obeying what He says\u200b,\u200b and then resting in it. Don&#8217;t be anxious, \u200bbut trust in what He&#8217;s \u200bsaying, \u200band \u200brest in Him. \u200bOnly then can \u200bwe have the peace that will guard \u200bour heart\u200bs\u200b and mind\u200bs\u200b.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color:#000000;\">I have entered into a covenant with God. I want to honor that and believe the promises He has given to me. Anything that interferes with that\u200b,\u200b I pray God will remove from me.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color:#000000;\">After reading, &#8220;Making a Deal&#8221;, I also felt the fear of God. I began to pray for the backslidden children of God. I hope that while there is still mercy, His children w\u200bill run back to Him while there is time.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color:#000000;\">God is so good to us. My desire is to live so that I can enjoy and experience all His promises until it&#8217;s time to go home.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color:#000000;\">\u200bMichelle\u200b<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hey Pastor John, I woke up this morning with, &#8220;be anxious for nothing&#8221; on my mind.
