Don’t worry about anything, but pray and ask God for everything you need, always giving thanks for what you have.
Instead of worrying
1.Pray -make your request known to God
2. Believe you have received answers to your prayers and thank God
3. Set your mind on better things (see example below). This is important, stop thinking about the problem and start thinking about God’s solution to the problem.
Philippians 4:6-9 (MSG) 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.
And because you belong to Christ Jesus, God’s peace will stand guard over all your thoughts and feelings. His peace can do this far better than our human minds
Do your best by filling your minds and meditating on things true, noble, reputable, authentic, compelling, gracious—the best, not the worst; the beautiful, not the ugly; things to praise, not things to curse. Put into practice what you learned from me, what you heard and saw and realized. Do that, and God, who makes everything work together, will work you into his most excellent harmonies
