Faith is released by speaking words. Jesus encouraged us to speak to mountains or to whatever our problem is. "...For assuredly, I say to you, if you have faith as a mustard seed, you will say to this mountain..." - Matthew 17:20 You don't need to use your faith for every single need in life. You need to use your faith to believe that you are the righteousness of God in Christ, and it will cause all the blessing you seek to come after you and overtake you. (2 Corinthians 5:21) God wants you to know you are His very intention! He has destined you for this very moment! Every believer in Christ Jesus can live in the perpetual continuous flow of the Holy Spirit daily in their life, for we've all been given the blessing and authority to tap into the root of continuous oil. That root is Jesus! "You, being a wild olive tree, were grafted in among them, and with them become a partaker of the root and of the fatness of the olive tree." - Romans 11:17 AFFIRMATIONS: I dominate my mind and my body with my spirit since I maintain my spirit properly -- feeding, strengthening, and dominating my inner man with the Word. There may be some things in my life that I need to curse because those things are hindering me from bearing fruit for the Kingdom of God. 2 Corinthians 5:7, "For we walk by faith, not by sight." Hebrews 11:1 gives the definition of faith, "Now faith brings our hopes into reality and becomes the foundation needed to acquire the things we long for. It is all the evidence required to prove what is still unseen" (The Passion Translation). If we look at Abraham as an example, walking by faith requires you to go to a place you do not know, one that God will reveal as you walk in obedience (Genesis 12:1). On the leading of the Holy Spirit, we are to step out in obedience and use the keys and pieces we have been given, knowing that others will arrive at the time we need them. Lie down in green pastures of Peace. Learn to unwind whenever possible, resting in the Presence of your Shepherd. In this electronic age, believers stay “wired” much of the time, too tense to find Him in the midst of their moments. He built into your very being the need for rest. How twisted the world has become when people feel guilty about meeting this basic need! How much time and energy they waste by being always on the go, rather than taking time to seek His direction for their lives. He has called you to walk with Him down paths of Peace. He wants you to blaze a trail for others who desire to live in His peaceful Presence. He has chosen you less for your strengths than for your weaknesses, which amplify your need for Him. Depend on Him more and more, and He will shower Peace on all your paths. "The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not be in want. He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, he restores my soul. He guides me in paths of righteousness for his name’s sake." - Psalm 23:1–3 “To shine on those living in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the path of peace.” -Luke 1:79 ALBERT FINCH MINISTRY

I have a problem with worrying. I overworry, especially about others, and it can feel stressful. As much as I pray to God, casting my burdens on Him and asking for grace to handle things, I still worry. It's not always easy to get things out of my mind! Does anyone relate? How do you deal with it?
