Worry
By Rev.
Kenneth E. Hagin
"Take no thought for
your life" (Matt. 6:25).
Shortly after I was born again, I promised God, "I'll never doubt
anything I read in Your Word. And I will put Your Word into practice."
Everything in the Word was a light and a blessing to me until I came to
Matthew 6:25. I learned from a footnote that the Greek reads, "Do not be
anxious about tomorrow."
Cross-references pointed out that God says, "Do not worry." But I was
full of worry! Not only was I nearly dead with a heart condition; I was
about to worry myself the rest of the way to the grave!
"Lord," I said, "if I have to live without worry, I can't be a
Christian!" Suddenly everything in the Word seemed dark and fuzzy; I
couldn't get any more light from the Word. My conscience smote me,
because I was not practicing the Word.
Finally at 6 p.m. on July 4, 1933, I committed all my cares to the Lord.
I said, "Lord, forgive me for worrying, for being full of anxieties, for
fretting, for being discouraged, for having the blues, for feeling sorry
for myself.
I know You will forgive me because You said You would if I'd confess it.
From this day on, because You have now forgiven me, I promise You the
longest day I live, I will never worry again."
Confession: I do not worry about tomorrow. I have no worries, no
cares. I've committed them to God. I never have the blues. I am never
discouraged!
