Philippians 4:6 New Living Translation (NLT)
6 Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done.
In all God’s teachings he always tells us not to worry or be afraid. He wants us to pray to him with our needs and speak to him in relationship with him like a relationship between you and I. He wants us to ask and tell him all our needs and thoughts no matter what they are and pray about everything. He wants us to seek him and only him. To tell him what your needs are and thank him for all he has done for you which you may have already seen and received. He is not trying to scare us away or hurt us he is not of evil but instead he is of love and wants to warm our hearts in him.
Philippians 4:6-7 The Message (MSG)
6-7 Don’t fret or worry. Instead of worrying, pray. Let petitions and praises shape your worries into prayers, letting God know your concerns. Before you know it, a sense of God’s wholeness, everything coming together for good, will come and settle you down. It’s wonderful what happens when Christ displaces worry at the center of your life.
