A Prayer to Live Free from Worry
Father, I thank You that I have been delivered from the power of darkness and translated into the Kingdom of Your dear Son. I choose to live free from worry in the name of Jesus, for the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death.
I humble myself under Your mighty hand that in due time You may exalt me. I cast the whole of my cares—all my anxieties, all my worries, all my concerns (name them)—once and for all on You. You care for me affectionately and care about me watchfully. You sustain me. You will never allow the consistently righteous to be moved—made to slip, fall, or fail!
Father, I delight myself in You, and You perfect that which concerns me.
I cast down imaginations, reasonings, and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of You, and I bring into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ. I strip off every weight that slows me down, especially the sin that so easily trips me up. And I run with endurance the race God has set before me. I do this by keeping my eyes on Jesus, the Champion, who initiates and perfects my faith.
I thank You, Father, that You are able to keep that which I have committed unto You. I fix my mind on those things that are true, honest, just, pure, lovely, of good report, virtuous, and deserving of praise. I will not let my heart be troubled. I abide in Your Word, and Your Word abides in me. Therefore, Father, I do not forget what manner of person I am. I look into the perfect law of liberty and continue therein, being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the Word and, thus, blessed in my doing!
Thank You, Father. I am carefree. I walk in that peace that passes all understanding, in Jesus’ name! Amen.
